We had a wonderful visit from our friends in local law enforcement and their four-legged partners!

Joining us were:
Chase, a yellow Lab, with Officer Heather McClelland #123 from the Groton Town Police Department, representing Community Policing & Officer Wellness.

K-9 Officer Hodges, a black Lab, with Eric Fredricks from the Waterford Police Department.

Both dogs are specially trained through Puppies Behind Bars, an organization that trains service and law enforcement dogs.

Our clients and residents enjoyed meeting these special visitors, and we appreciate our local police departments for taking the time to spend part of their day with us!

Thank you for making our day a little brighter!

Keeping Our Ross Adult Day Center Community Healthy!

The health and safety of our clients are a top priority! Please keep your loved one home if they are experiencing symptoms such as fever, chills, cough, headache, muscle aches, or sore throat.

If symptoms develop while at the center, arrangements must be made for pickup. Nursing staff may also request a physician’s evaluation before returning.

On September 11, a beautiful act of kindness brought a little extra brightness to our Eldercare community. A volunteer, whose mother was once a resident here, brought in flowers for a special activity, teaming up with one of our residents, a retired florist, to create beautiful arrangements.

Together, they arranged the flowers into beautiful displays that were placed throughout the building for residents and staff to enjoy.

A simple gesture, a shared talent, and a thoughtful way to honor a day of remembrance by spreading kindness and beauty throughout our community.
