Celebrating the Little Things

At Juniper Village the Spearly Center we celebrate the little things with our Restorative Nursing Department. Our dedicated restorative department promotes independence in our residents with active ambulation, restorative dining, walk to dine, individualized exercise, and other programs designed to promote an active body and engaged mind.

The gym is always bustling with residents stretching and exercising to regain or improve their independence.  This is achieved through many different activities such as riding the recumbent stationary bike, playing a wii game to increase range of motion and even dancing in the parallel bars.

The restorative team works closely with our rehabilitation team to ensure that our residents are safe and secure and able to reach their goals and be as independent as possible.  Even the smallest gain in  a resident's progress towards independence is celebrated by staff and other residents as well.  Join us as we celebrate the little things and big successes!

Help Juniper Village Feed Body and Soul

Juniper Village is feeding body and soul this November with our Second Annual Food Drive to benefit the Local Food Pantry. Hunger affects people of all ages and we want to help. You may drop off food from November 1 - 30 at Juniper Village. Local area businesses will also be designated drop off locations. Our goal is to collect 1000 pounds of food for the food pantry. Join us in our efforts to support our local Community. 100% of your donation will stay local.  To inquire about volunteering for the food drive, please call (719) 336-3434.

Stop by Juniper Village to see our progress and warm up with a cup of complimentary gourmet coffee for your donation.

Halloween Faces of Spearly

The Spearly Center celebrated Halloween with a face painter and costumes this year.  The residents and staff really got into the act as clowns, cats, Strawberry Short Cake and even a giant hot dog.

The devils, clowns and cowboys had a karaoke contest and costume parade.  Much to the devil's dismay, it was a clown who actually won the contest.  And of course the cowboys led the parade.

We ended the celebration with beverages and snacks in the coffee house. 

It was a spooktacular event that truly shows our Spearly colors and is another way that we are alive in all seasons of life!
