Description: 

Belmont Village of Glenview is an assisted living community and memory care facility that have set a standard for operating excellence and value. Our locations, buildings and systems are designed to foster an environment where all community members- seniors, their families, employees, and investors- can learn, grow, live well, and prosper.

As the Activity Program Coordinator I am in charge of daily activities, events, and outings. Activities are run 7 days a week and focus primarily on Whole Brain Fitness.

Whole Brain Fitness

No matter where we are in life, we always want to have the chance to learn, grow and contribute. Achieving those goals starts and ends with brain health. When we started Belmont Village almost 20 years ago, we didn’t conceive of ever having 30 residents aged 100+ under our roofs at the same time. But that’s what’s happened, more than once. We’re all living longer, so how we live at every stage matters more.

Over the years, we’ve developed a Whole Brain Fitness Lifestyle for our residents to encourage successful aging. It means nurturing and engaging mind, body and spirit each day, in specific ways. We focus on seven essential elements that include the right nutrition and physical exercise, mental workouts and lifelong learning, reduced stress, a strong social network and a sense of purpose.

Each element of the lifestyle is important and supports the others, but what makes it unique is our emphasis on mental fitness in all of our programs for every phase.
