Kidron Bethel Village, Bluestem Communities, North Newton, KS

Despite COVID-19, residents and their families are getting creative with their birthday celebrations! We have seen fun signs and decorations across campus. The 85 sign was placed outside of our assisted living community by a resident’s family in celebration of the individuals birthday.

Families and friends have been communicating with their loved ones in health care and assisted living through phone calls, video chats and visits through the window. Russ and Susan held this fun sign outside of the window of Mary’s home in assisted living. It reads “Your Family Loves You”.

The Kidron Bethel Village grounds and life enrichment teams set up these wheelchair accessible planters in the courtyard for health care residents. They are able to get outside and garden this spring.
