Activities at Manatawny Manor

Activities at a long-term care center are an integral component of the residents’ quality of life and well-being. These activities serve multiple purposes, enhancing both physical and mental health, fostering social connections, and promoting a sense of purpose and fulfillment for the residents.

Our specific activities include holiday parties, delightful musical performances, staying up-to-date with current events through newspaper readings, singing exercises to uplift spirits, fitness and stretching activities to promote well-being, meaningful religious meetings, and a wide array of entertainment options. Residents can enjoy games, trivia sessions, explore history, participate in gardening activities, and embark on exciting field trips and outings. We also encourage and value volunteer involvement, fostering a sense of community and connection.

We love having local volunteers here at Manatawny Manor. Our volunteers assist us with our activities and they visit one-on-one with our residents. Volunteers can also assist with religious and musical presentations as well as reading to our residents each week. If you are interested in volunteering your time at our facility, contact us today!

Here Comes the Bride

Manatawny Manor residents enjoyed a special “Here Comes the Bride” event, where they shared their wedding photos and reminisced about the beautiful memories behind them. Employees also brought in their own bridal gowns to show the residents, adding a meaningful and personal touch to the day. The celebration concluded with a lovely “reception” featuring cake, sparkling beverages, and plenty of smiles. Everyone had a wonderful time sharing stories, memories, and joy together.

The Annual Car Show, held on Saturday, June 6, was a wonderful event filled with classic cars, community spirit, and plenty of smiles. A special thank you to Andy Gresko for organizing such a great day and helping bring everyone together for this fun and memorable event.

Manatawny Manor was happy to participate in the celebration of Nursing Home Care Week with this year’s theme, “Moments in Bloom.” The week began with fresh flowers for moms on Mother’s Day and continued with flower arranging, floral decorations throughout the building, a garden-themed tea party, a staff appreciation wall, and a special “Planting with Kindness” activity where residents planted flowers to brighten the back patio. It was a beautiful week filled with color, appreciation, and meaningful moments for residents and staff.

Manatawny Manor residents were treated to Medieval Dance by our very own staff members! Thank you!

In April we celebrated and showed gratitude to our amazing volunteers!
