What Residents and Families Say About La Posada at Pusch Ridge
8 Dimensions to Wellness
From your daily stroll through the grounds to one-on-one workouts with a personal trainer—and everything in between—we offer a wide variety of physical fitness options for healthy aging for anyone and any level.
Exposure to continuing education through language classes, a broad range of lectures (travel, history, sports and more), musical performances on campus and seminars contributes to an active mind. Staying curious and engaged in learning is an important part of healthy aging and we celebrate that whole-heartedly at La Posada.
Supporting emotional well-being at La Posada means supporting the needs of residents and staff. We do this by providing social engagement and purpose-driven activities, as well as by creating a safe environment. We actively foster connections by providing group activities and shared spaces, helping reduce loneliness, stress and anxiety.
From spur-of-the-moment get-togethers to established classes, speakers, programs and other kinds of social gatherings on every level, there is never a lack of people to interact and engage with at La Posada at Pusch Ridge.
The design and location of our community—at the foot of Pusch Ridge—have been recognized by residents as a nod to spiritualism because of our strong connection to nature. No matter what your beliefs or faith traditions, we support your connection to that which brings you peace and grounds you.
La Posada provides opportunities for residents to use their skills, share knowledge and find enrichment through activities like volunteering, leading clubs on campus and mentoring new residents through our ambassador program. The intent is to foster a sense of purpose by facilitating resident committees, organizing community projects and offering classes or workshops where residents can teach or learn new skills.
Fiscal fitness is an important part of overall wellness, so opportunities to learn about managing money are also part of our overall programming for residents.
Making sure everyone is living in the environment most conducive to their optimal physical and mental health is one of the hallmarks of life at La Posada. Resident committees meet regularly with staff to structure and oversee programs to ensure the well-being of everyone’s immediate environment.
