Activities and our Award Winning SPARK Program
It is easy to identify the limits of Alzheimer’s and dementia, but through our partnership with the Center for Applied Research in Dementia, we prefer to focus on what our residents can still do, and the abilities they bring to our Community. Sunol Creek, via its unique SPARK program, offers residents a variety of Montessori Method inspired activities as well as traditional social activities, outings, and community initiatives.
Meals on Wheels, Kids Against Hunger, and reading to preschool kids are also some of the events that our residents participate in. Recently, we had an Elvis impersonator come to the community for a performance, and the residents loved it. Our furry visitors, including a St. Bernard that has earned the affectionate nickname, “Burt the Flirt”, are always a big hit!
One of the highlights of our community is our restaurant-quality meals. Our On-Site Executive Chef prepares a wide variety of entrees from our general menu but also offers additional selections for residents who may want to have something different.
