Maestro’sCornerExecutive Director Letter:

I would like to introduce you to Sarah Garcia, our Administrator in Training. Some of you have already had the opportunity to meet her in person. Sarah is working with me and will become the Executive Director at Serenades when I move next door with Sonata West. Sonata West will offer resort-style independent and assisted living, and Serenades will continue to offer memory care assisted living.

Margaret: Tell me about your background and why you joined Serenades.

Sarah: I studied business and joined the health care community shortly after graduating from college. I started in health care because of my grandfather and I’ve continued in it because I love helping people. My background is working in health care marketing and administration and I have worked in skilled nursing and rehabilitation, assisted living, and hospice. Having visited many assisted living communities with my previous job, I was always impressed with Serenades’ approach to memory care and the company’s commitment to excellence in

care and service. It’s abeautiful community with great residents & families, and staff. I’ve also previously worked with many of Sonata Health Care’s leadership team and can’t think of a better group of people to be with. I’m thrilled to be here.

What’s Happening

Maria Arroyo, Rebecca Rose, and Jean Mayer enjoy their mocktails.

Gretchin supplies water bottles and information on our waterworks program to local rehabs and hospitals.

During the month of July Sonata healthcare kicks off a “Water Works” Program promoting hydration.. The extreme heat of July coupled with our elderly residents is very dangerous and we are making an effort to consistently educate the staff to monitor the courtyard and get residents out before they get overheated. Consistently offering hydration to the residents is being pushed as well. Staff were educated on the signs and symptoms of dehydraton and general information on our body’s need for water.Alan is making “mocktails” for the residents every Tuesday in the neighborhoods. Mocktail recipes vary weekly. Come and join us for the fun.

Alan mixes up the “mocktails” made this time from strawberries and water. Brenda helps to

serve the mocktails.

What’s HappeningOn July 4th, Serenades hosted an Independence Day celebration and cookout. We had over 25 family members come to join the festivities. Alan and the Dining Services Team, Pattie, Anna, Chris, Carmen and Carina worked hard to put out a traditional fourth of July cookout with hot dogs, hamburgers and all of the fixings. Even despite the heat, we all had a great day. Entertainment was provided after the cookout by Team Elliott entertainers.

Vera Edwards gets into the 4th of July spirit wearing her red white and blue derby with her daughter, Jody.

Larry Kotke and his daughter Karen and her husband, Mike, enjoy the cookout.

Pattie Sutram gets grill duty. Joanne Eckert and her family go through the cookout line.
