A Wonderful Resident Milestone Celebration at Maristhill

It seems like there's always something happening at Maristhill as our engaged elder community regularly enjoys a wide range of activities, performances and presentations. 

In the picture to your right, resident Pauline Manning, who recently celebrated her 100^th birthday, enjoys the resident luncheon with her niece Dawn Marie.

Congratulations Pauline! 

The activity room was crowded with residents and their families at Maristhill Nursing & Rehabilitation Center’s Mother’s Day Social with renowned entertainer Tony Funches.

As you may know, the incomparable Tony Funches was the former lead singer of Herb Reed’s Platters. A favorite among residents and staff, Tony’s stage career has spanned nearly thirty 30 years, more than twelve of which were spent with the Platters. 

He has performed at Maristhill numerous times over the past several year, and the wide vocal range of this incredible singer is just the beginning of his talents. His on stage personality and ability to engage audiences of all age levels are exceptional, and we are thankful that Tony visits Maristhill on a regular basis.

Encore - A Maristhill Rehabilitation Story

Maristhill loves its’ repeat customers, especially ones as vibrant as Catherine Walsh.

Catherine, who looks and acts much younger than her stated age, is on her second "go-round" at Maristhill.

Her first stay was in 2015 after a fall left her with a fractured Leg. She came to us directly from the hospital emergency room wearing an immobilizer and only able to bear minimal weight.

Our rehab department worked on her upper and lower body strength and she was able to go home safely in less than three weeks.

"I love the rehab department…," she said. "And the place is immaculate!"
After the success of her first stay, when she fell and needed rehab again Catherine was happy to return.

Her current stay is more complex, but she knows that our rehab department they will have her climbing the stairs in her beloved home as soon as possible.
