Boris the Cat



Have I told you about our cat? Boris lives in our Health Care Center. He is LOVED by everyone. Staff, residents, neighbors! Boris belonged to one of our neighbors but spent many a day and night here on our campus. About 10 years ago our neighbors moved to San Anselmo, about 8 miles away. They took Boris with them, and wouldn't you know it! Boris walked back to Aldersly! This is all city traffic walking! We called the owners to let them know. It was clear that Boris had chosen Aldersly as his home. He roams our campus and visits everyone. But our Health Care Center is his home and he does have a favorite resident there. We love Boris and I am thrilled to introduce him to you. Stop by and maybe he will join us on a tour!!

Putting it all together

It is the start of a new week here at Aldersly and the fun is just beginning. Boy are we making plans for the summer. The events and activities are going to be incredible and I know you will not want to miss them! Stop back for updates......

Friday's Post!

Who doesn't love Fridays? The week is almost over and the weekend is just about to begin.....I have noticed that our residents love Fridays too. Even though they are retired. Just this morning I was talking to one of our residents and he is taking friends out to lunch today. He said Friday is his favorite day to go out for lunch. It must be something. Friday's are great days! Always puts a smile on my face. Enjoy the day!

"Waited too long"

I talk to people on the phone every day. My job and my passion is to educate seniors on their retirement. "I'm not ready yet" is something I hear over and over again. What is it that they are not ready for? I wonder. If it is a crisis they are waiting for to signal to them that they are ready it is too late. A Continuing Care Retirement Community like Aldersly is one where you move in and live your own life in your own apartment. Independent!

Full circle

This morning I had a call from a past President of the Board of Directors for Aldersly! What an exciting call that was for me. He said he built many of our amazing apartments. He was also very happy to hear that we still proudly displayed pictures of past and current presidents. Our heritage and history is proudly displayed! 88 Years of history is something to be very proud of.

Plan for your future

Aldersly will provide a fulfilling senior living lifestyle for you! don't wait until you need us. Unfortunately we all know someone who waited too long and once you have a health challenge, you no longer qualify to make a reservation! Don't wait for a crisis. Call me, I have solutions for today's active seniors. Even in this economy!
