Social. Recreation. Experiences.
We offer a wide range of programs and activities to help you reach your own personal goals, while simultaneously getting you comfortable with your new home and friends. We schedule physical, cognitive, and social programs & events at OSCR on a daily basis. Regular bus trips are organized based upon client’s interests to encourage independence and socialization outside of OSCR.
Your feedback is important as we strive to offer new exciting programs. Quarterly focus groups and our resident suggestion box ensure that we are providing high quality client-focused services.
Our close-knit Healthy Living Programs team strongly believes our philosophy translates to our clients, creating a inclusive environment. We work as a team to live up to our mission, providing client focused services.
