Key Club & NHS High School Kids Visit Senior Living Community
Residents at The Landing at Queensbury recently received a special visit from Fort Ann Central School students! Students who participate in National Honor Society and Key Club helped with a variety of tasks and socialized with the residents. The Landing at Queensbury is an assisted living facility and memory care unit in Queensbury, where residents maintain an independent lifestyle while continuing to grow and and maximize their abilities while receiving the best senior living and memory-care services.
For their “Senior Give-Back Day” in May, the students did a variety of cleaning tasks for the residents, including wiping down the dining room and picking up debris outside. They also played a game of dominoes, enjoyed an ice cream social, and visited with the dementia care connections residents in their outdoor courtyard.
“We are so grateful for their visit and their generosity,” shared Alisha Stosic, Executive Director of The Landing at Queensbury. “They did so much in a short amount of time. We can’t wait for them to visit us again!”
Intergenerational friendships create powerful benefits for both groups… Each group learns from each other and forms a special bond, building respect and support.
