💙🤍❤️ What better way to celebrate our country’s 250th year of independence than by exercising our freedom to choose? Preferences were expressed – and more importantly, heard – at Artis’s July Power of Play signature events! We “voted” on pressing issues like coffee vs. tea and dogs vs. cats – then joined in an Open Studio experience where residents chose from creative programs to enjoy together.
Self-expression is essential to emotional well-being on the dementia journey – and honoring our residents’ autonomy is The Artis Way.

🌟 Meet Claire – centenarian, kitchen whiz, life of the party! 🌟
✅ Always up front for live entertainment and dances whenever she hears the beat.
✅ Never misses a cooking workshop.
✅ Always up for a heartfelt conversation.
Claire is popular at Artis of Commack in New York, and it's easy to see why. She loves her Horticulture club and chit-chats – but most of all, she loves people.
She'll tell you about her life as a bookkeeper and maybe sprinkle in a little dating advice along the way. And she'll do it with a warmth that makes you feel like you've known her forever.
So, when it came time for Claire’s 100th birthday party, team Artis welcomed her family with food, dancing, and more of her favorite things. 🪩🎶 Claire is able to show her true colors at Artis – making plenty of friends along the way.

Meet Cassandra McFadden, June's Positive Partner of the Month at Artis of Huntingdon Valley in Pennsylvania!
"As a caregiver, the most meaningful part of my work is building connections with residents and helping them feel safe and valued," said Cassandra. "And when I can bring them a moment of joy, that really makes my day."Each month, every Artis community recognizes an extra-thoughtful associate – nominated by residents, families, and fellow associates – who embodies The Artis Way."
For seven years, Cassandra has played a significant role in our day-to-day care planning," said Executive Director Kenyatta Williamson. "When a need arises that requires a especially skilled approach, the first question we ask is, 'Is Cassandra here?' She is kind, reliable, and extremely effective as a member of our care team, and we are grateful for the way she continues to show compassion for our residents."
Thank you, Cassandra, for making a positive difference in the lives of the people you serve! 💙

What if the most meaningful moment of the day began with a simple question: “Which would you prefer today?” For people living with dementia, having the freedom to choose – what to wear, where to sit, whether to join a program or simply observe – can have a real impact on dignity and connection. At Artis, July's Power of Play theme explores how small, low-pressure choices create space for authentic engagement and presence with no “right” answers – just an open invitation to participate in a way that feels good today. Learn how Artis supports connection through play this summer. �

Holiday traditions can help spark memories and support a sense of comfort and belonging for our residents. Thanks to every Artis leader and associate for making the day a red, white, and blue blast! 🇺🇸 🎆

Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸
At Artis, we always value the time we spend around the table with the people we care about – and the food we love.
Today, we’re also celebrating something simple yet powerful: the freedom to choose.
Which brings us to an important question: Which cookout staple gets your taste buds tingling?
Choose 😄 for 🍔 Hamburgers
Choose ❤️ for 🌭 Hot dogs
Happy Fourth of July from all of us at Artis! 🇺🇸

🎶 The Stones or The Beatles?
🍦 Chocolate or Vanilla Ice Cream?
🏀 Basketball or Baseball?
Personal choice is essential to dignity and emotional well-being on the dementia journey. While complex decisions may become more challenging with memory loss, simple, sensory-based choices offer opportunities for autonomy and self-expression.
Join us this month at ✅ Celebrating the Freedom to Choose ✅ – our Power of Play signature event! It's an interactive experience where we’ll explore our preferences by “voting” between different options, followed by a family-friendly Open Studio where you can choose a creative program to enjoy together.
