Interactive Assisted Living Dining Experience
Assisted living residents at Otterbein Cridersville can relax and unwind in their own private suites but can also find a sense of community in their shared gathering rooms. And assisted living dining is a perfect example of this!
The large, open-concept kitchen and dining room promote a shared experience where residents and partners can prepare meals, share their likes and dislikes, and dine together at long, farm-style tables. It’s often comforting to take in the sights, sounds, and smells of a home-cooked meal. And it’s even better enjoyed among friends.
The life enrichment team also utilizes the dining space for a variety of activities, including cooking demonstrations, guest speakers, and arts and crafts. One popular choice among residents is Supper and a Show, where entertainment and dinner are combined.
