ARTIS REELS
Real people. Real moments. Real Artis.
Watch how our residents and team members bring our value of “Inspired Well-Being”

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’re excited to reintroduce our Caregiver Support Book Lending Library—a special place where families and caregivers can find helpful resources, encouragement, and a little support along the way.
And because caregiving touches the whole family, we’ve also added books for children!
Take a book, share a book, and know that you’re never alone on the journey. 💜

🌟 Meet Betty – music lover with a heart full of faith! 🌟
✅ Requests the best songs during programming
✅ Never misses a Rosary Club or Sunday Communion.
✅ A neatnik who loves to straighten up before the fun begins.
😄Betty from Artis of Yardley has a way of making a space feel warmer just by being in it. Whether she's belting out a favorite hymn, winning at “Name that Tune”, or cuddling up with Maverick and Moose during pet therapy, she brings joy to every room she's in.
Her husband, Steve, visits nearly every day. He's made beautiful posters of their life together that line her suite – a love story you can see the moment you walk in.
💛Betty has blossomed at Artis – finding the community that make every day feel meaningful. Her care partner, Gigi, even made sure her birthday was extra special with a cake and a gift, because remembering those small details is the Artis Way.
