NHC Scott Healthcare is actively engaging with the Lawrenceburg community and its neighboring areas to promote awareness regarding the prevention of falls among seniors, while also seeking volunteers for its Life Enrichment Program. Officials at NHC Scott emphasize that falls, which are often preventable, pose a significant safety risk for older adults each year. By fostering greater community involvement and implementing daily activities, the facility aims to mitigate these risks and enhance the overall quality of life for its residents.
In line with this initiative, NHC Scott is inviting local residents to become “Day Room Angels.” These volunteers play a crucial role by facilitating enjoyable and enriching activities that encourage residents to remain active, engaged, and socially connected, all within a secure environment.
Individuals who are interested in volunteering can reach out to Shaun Jakeman, the Life Enrichment Director, by calling 931-762-9418. Additionally, prospective volunteers are welcome to visit NHC Scott in person at 2380 Buffalo Road, Lawrenceburg, Tennessee, to gather more information about the program.
According to NHC Scott officials, becoming a Day Room Angel offers a rewarding opportunity for community members to contribute positively while assisting seniors in leading safer and more fulfilling lives each day.
