Tech Helping Residents Stay Connected

Residents at Fleischman Residence, Memory Care and Coville Assisted Living can access entertainment with the help of It’s Never Too Late (IN2L). Computer-based games like Soduko and Crosswords, Music and Meditation classes, fitness routines and chair exercises help pass the time and challenge the minds of frail residents who are still anxious to engage. From regular Friday night services uploaded to Touch Town, and Arts and Entertainment over the weekends, JSL residents always have something to look forward to doing. World travel, concert attendance and museum visits are currently out of the question and especially so for isolated elders during COVID, but the variety of exciting programs accessible on IN2L provide chairside entertainment everyone appreciates.

Life Enrichment coordinators and Administrators at Fleischman Residence and Coville Assisted Living Apartments appreciate the ease of using IN2L. Additionally, employing the use of iPads allows residents to stay in touch with their families, no matter where they live. Special thank you to the Donald R. & Ester Simon Foundation for their generous grant that provided this technology for our residents.
