Greetings, I am now entering my third month of being here at the Community. It has been a great honor getting to know each of you and your loved ones. There have been several new faces here in the Community with both staff and residents. Thank you for your continued support for all these new adjustments. Having personally worked in the Senior Care Community for many years, I have gotten to know a lot of Residents and I have to say, Pacifica Oakland Heights have some of the best. The Community feel that many of our residents have, makes me grateful each and every day that I get to be a part of such an amazing family. If I have not gotten the chance to meet you yet, please feel free to stop by and say hi. Thank you, Amanda North [email protected]

This Year’s Theme of Older Americans Month is

“Never Too Old To Play!”

Each year the Administration on Aging (AoA), part of the Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) desig-nates a theme for Older Americans Month. This year the theme selected is “Never Too Old to Play!”, as illus-trated by the official logo for the event pictured at right.

“This year’s theme “Never Too Old to Play” encourages older Americans to stay active in their own lives and in their communities,” HHS Secretary Sebelius said. “Older Americans are living longer and are more active than ever before,” the Secretary said.

“As large numbers of baby-boomers reach retirement age, many communities have increased their efforts to provide meaningful opportunities for older adults—many of whom remain physically and socially active through their 80s and beyond. Current trends show that people over age 60 account for an ever-growing percentage of participants in community service positions, faith-based organizations, online social networking as well as arts and recreational groups,” AoA states in the article posted on its website.

“Lifelong participation in social, creative, and physical activities has proven health benefits, including retaining mobility, muscle mass, and cognitive abilities. But older adults are not the only ones who benefit from their en-gagement in community life. Studies show their interactions with family, friends, and neighbors across genera-tions enrich the lives of everyone involved. Young people who have significant relationships with a grandparent or elder report that these relationships helped shape their values, goals, and life choices and gave them a sense of identity and roots,” the AoA article states.

The Importance of Senior Fitness Today's seniors are more vital than ever before. And good exercise is just as important for them as it is for peo-ple in any other age group. In fact, a 2013 study found that senior exercise programs helped improve the overall quality of life for those who regularly participated in them. Exercise was actually found to be more important than a healthy diet. Specifically, the study found that seniors who exercised regularly were more likely to have:1

Improved physical and mental health Increased energy Improved social interactions Slowing or reversal of overall declining health Fewer limitations with daily activities Lower risk of depression Fewer falls and injuries Lower rates of hospitalization Lower rates of chronic disease (or more manageable symptoms for those who are already affected by it) So, as you can see, there are many great benefits to beginning a regular workout routine. Continue reading the following sections to discover some of your fitness options and explore a few exercise videos for seniors.

Happy 4th of July
