Manning Square

Our residents had a wonderful time getting creative during towel origami craft time as they made cute snails and beautiful roses. Activities like these encourage creativity, focus, and social connection while giving residents the chance to enjoy something fun and hands on together.

The finished creations turned out beautifully.

🌟 Celebrating Growth, Leadership, and Purpose at Navion Senior Solutions! 🌟

At Navion, we believe in investing in our team members and creating opportunities for growth that ultimately enhance the lives of our residents. Today, we are proud to recognize two outstanding individuals who exemplify that commitment.

Congratulations to Andrea, our Life Enrichment Director, who recently earned her Certified Alzheimer's and Dementia Care Trainer (CADDCT) credential. In May, Andrea facilitated her first Advanced Alzheimer's and Dementia Care training, helping more than 20 team members take the next step toward becoming Certified Dementia Practitioners (CDPs).

We also celebrate Executive Director Shemeka Graves, whose leadership and dedication to developing others continue to make a lasting impact. As an LPN and Certified Dementia Practitioner, Shemeka is passionate about helping team members grow and achieve their professional goals.

Andrea has dedicated more than 20 years to senior living, including the last five years at Richland Square Memory Care. Her passion for serving seniors shines through in everything she does. As Andrea shares:

"Serving seniors is more than a privilege; it's my purpose. In a world where we all seek meaning, I am thankful to have found mine by bringing comfort, compassion, and joy to those who have paved the way for us."

Today, we celebrate not only Andrea and Shemeka, but also the incredible leaders and team members throughout Navion Nation who inspire growth, lead with compassion, and make our communities stronger every day. Their dedication to residents, families, and one another is what makes Navion such a special place to live, work, and thrive.

Residents got crafty and built their own solar nightlights to place on their windowsills. The finished pieces are as practical as they are charming.

June is Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness, show support, and honor those affected by Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. We are proud to support our residents and families with compassion, understanding, and meaningful moments of connection each day. Together, we can continue to spread awareness, education, and hope within our community.

Morning manicures brought residents together for hand massages, fresh polish, and plenty of laughs. It was a relaxed and cheerful way to start the day.

The Memorial Day party brought out the competitive spirit in everyone. Residents took turns at corn hole and the putting green, cheering each other on from start to finish with smiles all around.

Retirement is a big life change, and finding purpose in everyday moments can make all the difference. With more time to enjoy hobbies, friendships, family, and new experiences, this season of life can be filled with joy, connection, and meaningful opportunities each day.

Huge thanks to volunteer Denise for leading a skin care class and sharing her beautiful handmade corsages with us. It was the perfect start to Mother's Day weekend!

We love when one of our volunteers, Susan, visits for “Painting with Susan.” Our residents always enjoy getting creative and spending time together during this fun activity! 🎨😊
