Sunshine, cotton candy, and a whole lot of pink.

Our ALC team had a wonderful time at the Fall Fest at Grace Point Place Memory Care in Oak Lawn! The sky was blue, the cotton candy machine never stopped spinning, and a group of dancers in pink brought the whole crowd to its feet (well, almost 😉). Pink felt just right for October, too.

A big thank-you to our Business Development Liaison, Brandon Gonzales, for keeping the cotton candy coming with a smile! And our Business Development Director, Tanya McPartland, was all smiles, too! 😊

Days like this remind us why we love being part of the communities we serve. Good food, good music, and good neighbors go a long way.

Thank you, Grace Point Place, for having us. We'll be back!

Swipe through for a few favorite moments, and catch the dancers in our Reel. 🎶

Taking care of our brains, together.

We were honored to sponsor a Brain Health presentation at Atria Park of Glen Ellyn, presented by Rachelle Blough, Certified Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia Care Trainer and Certified Dementia Practitioner with the National Council of Certified Dementia Practitioners (NCCDP).

What a warm, engaged room! Thank you to everyone who came with curiosity and great questions, and to Rachelle for sharing her time and expertise and for leading everyone in an exercise. Our Business Development Liaison, Rodney Pidu, was glad to be there, too.

Whether you're thinking about your own brain health or caring for someone you love, you don't have to figure it out alone. Conversations like this one are a great place to start.

Thank you, Atria Park of Glen Ellyn, for hosting us. 💛

Bring the whole bag. 💊

Today is National Check Your Meds Day, a simple reminder that once a year, every medicine deserves a second look.

If you help care for a parent, this one's for you. Over time, prescriptions pile up from different doctors, an over-the-counter sleep aid sneaks in, and a vitamin or two joins the mix. Each one may make sense on its own. Together, it's worth checking.

Here's an easy way to start:

🛍️ Gather everything in one bag: prescriptions, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and supplements. Yes, even the eye drops and the “only when I need it” pills.
📝 Jot down how each one is actually being taken (not just what the label says).
💬 Bring the bag to a pharmacist or your parent's doctor and ask: Is each of these still needed? Do any of them clash? Is anything causing dizziness, sleepiness, or an upset stomach?
🗓️ Keep an updated list in your wallet or phone for every appointment.

It's not about doing anything wrong. It's about making sure everything still fits.

If keeping track of medications at home is getting harder, we're happy to talk through what might help. 📞 630-333-9885

Your Brain Needs a Workout, Too!

We know that physical activity helps keep our bodies healthy. But what about our brains?

Keeping your mind active is an important part of healthy aging. And the good news is, it doesn't require complicated exercises or expensive programs.

Try something new. Learn a skill. Spend time with friends. Get moving. Read a book that challenges your thinking.

Even small changes to your daily routine can help support cognitive health.

At ALC Health Care Services, we believe healthy aging means caring for the whole person, body and mind.

Your best life is now. Keep learning, growing, and enjoying it!

Your mammogram: one appointment worth keeping. 💗

Today is National Mammography Day. A mammogram can find breast cancer early, often before there's anything you can feel, when it's usually easier to treat.

Not sure when you're due, or how often you should go? That's a great question for your doctor or nurse practitioner. The right schedule depends on your age, your health, and your family history.

Two ways to make it happen this month:
📅 Call and schedule yours today, then put it on the calendar.
👭 Offer to go with your mom, sister, or a friend. “I'll come with you, and we'll get lunch after” can make it a lot easier to say yes.

If getting to medical appointments has become hard for an older loved one, ALC Transportation offers door-to-door rides in a handicap-accessible van in Cook, DuPage, Kane, and Will counties. 📞 630-523-8009

Caregiving isn't just about what you do. It's about everything you have to remember.

The prescriptions. The appointments. The insurance questions. The groceries. The phone calls.

And somewhere in the middle of it all, your own life.

It's called the 'mental load' of caregiving, and it can be exhausting even when everything seems to be going well.

A few things can help: Write things down. Share responsibilities, not just tasks. And remember that asking for help isn't a failure.

At ALC Health Care Services, we know that supporting older adults also means supporting the people who care for them.

Our Home Services team can help lighten the load.

Because caregivers deserve support, too.

Breast cancer isn't one disease. And it isn't one experience.

For some, breast cancer treatment ends and life moves forward. For others, the diagnosis changes everything, including what the future may hold.

October 13 is Metastatic Breast Cancer Awareness Day, a time to recognize people living with breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body.

Metastatic breast cancer is treatable, but it is not currently considered curable. Many people live for years with the disease, balancing treatments, appointments, relationships, work and the ordinary moments that make life meaningful.

During Breast Cancer Awareness Month, let's make room for every story. Not just stories of survival, but stories of living with cancer, facing uncertainty and finding meaning in each day.

Because every story matters. And every person deserves to be seen and supported.

Movement matters. So does listening to your joints. 🦵💙

Today is World Arthritis Day, which kicks off Bone and Joint Action Week (Oct. 12–20). It's a good moment for a quick check-in on how you, or someone you love, is moving these days.

Staying active helps keep joints flexible and muscles strong, and strong legs and good balance go a long way toward staying steady on your feet. A few gentle questions to ask:

🪜 Are everyday things, like stairs, getting up from a chair, or stepping into the tub, getting harder?
🦵 Is a joint more swollen, stiff, or sore than it used to be?
⚠️ Any slips, trips, or close calls lately?
🛋️ Is pain keeping you home from things you enjoy?

If the answer to any of these is yes, bring it up with your doctor. Pain that's new, getting worse, or changing how you move is your body telling you something.

And if you or a loved one has a knee or hip replacement coming up, plan ahead for recovery at home. Working with your doctor, ALC Home Health Care brings physical and occupational therapy to the house to rebuild strength, balance, and confidence with everyday tasks, with fall prevention built in. We can also help coordinate equipment like a walker or shower chair.

Fall colors, live music, and pumpkin pie. 🍂🥧

ALC was proud to join the Leyden Township Senior Homecoming this week. From a lively band to plates of pie passed around the tables, it was a joyful afternoon with neighbors and friends.

Thank you to Leyden Township for hosting such a warm celebration of our community's older adults. We're grateful for every handshake, every song, and every smile. 💛

Music, cotton candy, and a full room of smiles. 🎶🍬

This week our team spent time at Concord Place Retirement Community in Northlake for a Treats and Sweets Day. Music therapist Marcos Ahlman brought the keyboard, a violinist joined in, and ALC CEO Anthony Siciliano even took a turn at the cotton candy machine.

Moments like these are why we love being part of the communities we serve. Music lifts spirits. Shared treats bring people together. And showing up matters.

Thank you, Concord Place, for welcoming us. 💛
