Super Fun Walk to End Alzheimer's
The Walk to End Alzheimer’s at Scissortail Park this past Saturday was unforgettable! Despite the overcast skies, the mood was electric as hundreds of volunteers set up tents and tables to kick things off. We had it all—princesses, superheroes, bubbles galore, a STILT Lady, Ghostbusters, Winnie the Pooh, Darth Vader, and more, all joining in the fight! Fantastic tunes from The Senior Follies and Brave Amigos got us moving. Our inspiring speakers reminded us why we walk, and Channel 9’s Robin Marsh closed with powerful updates on Alzheimer’s research. Together, we’re making strides!
I’m proud that our Right at Home-NW Oklahoma City office is a part of this important event and privileged to serve on The Walk Entertainment Committee with such dedicated and passionate people!
Out and About in the Community
What a fantastic October it’s been so far! From starting off with our classic Pig Bingo at Village on the Park, to heading to Dallas for the Right at Home Southwest Regional Meeting, it’s been non-stop. We’ve been helping our community stay healthy with flu shot clinics at Saint Ann, SW Mansions, and Hefner Mansion, and enjoyed all the excitement of the Better with Age Fun Day at Church of the Servant. We also hosted an insightful Lunch and Learn with our friends from Golden Age Home Health. And of course, Happy Hour at Hefner Mansions was unforgettable, especially with our surprise guest of honor stopping by!
Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you to all who make these moments possible!

This weekend, some of our Right at Home team members, Tylynn, Skyler, and Tylynn’s mom Lori, had the honor of volunteering at Sister BJ's Pantry Friends Day, an amazing initiative dedicated to providing essential items for those in need.

It was an incredible experience to witness the smiles on the faces of those we could help, and we want to extend our gratitude to Sister BJ's Pantry for their dedication to this wonderful cause.

Highly Trained Caregivers
As a leading in-home care provider, it is vital we have continued training and review field processes with our care professionals. Fielding a professional, highly trained, compassionate care team helps ensure clients get the best care – the care they deserve!
CPR training was a recent focus for our care teams' continuing education and skills application. CPR is a skill everyone should know and be ready to administer, particularly those caring for seniors.
A heartfelt thank you to all our care professionals that attended, and to our LPN-Tylynn, Director of Quality and Training for setting the class up and participating. We had a fantastic turn out and it’s always fun to see each other, share inventive ways for client care, and keep our care-giving skills sharp.
