ARTIS REELS
Real people. Real moments. Real Artis.
Watch how our residents and team members bring our value of “Inspired Well-Being”
to life in every story.
Maverick shares the joy of seeing his grandmother thrive at Artis — from compassionate care to creative expression through art. “It’s just a joy,” he says, watching her engage and connect in a place where genuine people support and uplift each resident.
Life Enrichment at Artis is powered by people with the training, heart, and intuition to transform everyday moments into meaningful experiences. Meet Marlene, one of our Life Enrichment Directors, whose superpower is discovering what brings each resident to life.

🎺 We love a parade – and it’s how we’re exploring Play as Balance at Artis in September.
Movement supports balance and stability, at every age. When engagement is supported through rhythm, repetition, and guided movement, rather than ability or performance, people living with dementia can feel more steady, connected, and confident.
Join us for a music-and-movement-led experience where you can participate on your feet or in your chair, playing an instrument or simply swaying to the rhythm.
The more the merrier! 💙💙💙

A big Artis THANK YOU to everyone who joined us for our informative program on navigating the mysterious language of dementia. 🧠
Our loved ones with memory loss can act in ways that frustrate us — but these challenging actions are often the only way they can communicate. This session broke down how to make sense of that communication and respond with confidence.
Together, we covered:
💙 How to interpret your loved one's body language and other signals
💙 How to respond appropriately and effectively to different actions
💙 How to develop patience and understanding for their unique needs
📹 If you couldn't join us live, or want a refresher on all we discussed, the full session is available to watch now.
