This Quarantine Has Got Us Going Wild!': Senior Residents at Texas Assisted Living Community Enjoy Drinks, Tattoos During Quarantine
Author: internet - Published 2020-08-18 07:00:00 PM - (163 Reads)The Wesley House Assisted Living community in Hillsboro, Texas, is helping residents deal with the pandemic-related quarantine in an unconventional way, reports KSAT . A recent event allowed residents to enjoy alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks and get temporary tattoos. "We have about 30 residents in our facility," said Wesley House officials. "Most of them are very independent, so having them on lockdown has really made a big change in their lives." It took about 90 minutes for all residents to come through the dining area of the community to participate in the event, and they hung around the event space for about 10 minutes before being sent back to their rooms. "We quickly disinfect tables and chairs used for other residents to use when their turn comes," Wesley House officials said. They added that all staff help during activities, "so that makes residents more open to participating as well. We are trying to keep their lives as normal as possible during this difficult time for them."
