We love getting to know every single one of our residents at our senior living Lake in the Hills community, and we want you to get to know them as well. This month, we are featuring our community’s assisted living resident, Alice Vallese.
Alice has four children, four grandchildren, and one great grandchild. Her husband served in the Army during World War II. She used to work in an office doing administrative work before she retired. Alice’s favorite hobbies are coloring and sewing, she especially enjoys joining our coloring events to mingle with her fellow residents.

Moving out of your comfort zone into an assisted living care facility can seem like a scary change at a glance, especially when it comes to considering what to take with you and what to leave behind. We’ve gathered some tips from our senior living experts in Lake in the Hills to make the move a bit easier and help you ensure the new space feels like home for you or your loved one.

​July is Social Wellness Month, but what is Social Wellness? Social Wellness can be defined as the ability to create and interact with a positive support system surrounding oneself, including friends, family, neighbors, and more.
 
To put it simply, Social Wellness encourages people to interact with others in ways that are positive to their physical, emotional, and mental health.
