The Activity Program in Assisted Living offers a wide range of activities to peak anyone’s interest. Each day begins with exercise class after breakfast. Our seated exercise program is catered to people of all abilities. We also offer walks in our beautiful neighborhood.

We have Brain Games each day where residents work as a team to solve daily word puzzles, games, riddles and brain teasers as well as challenges in trivia of differing themes. The Activity Staff take turns hosting this dynamic program that takes residents into lunchtime.

Afternoons are a time to visit with friends and family, play a game of cards or Rummikub, a resident favorite! We have a movie theater which shows a new movie daily. Residents are encouraged to submit movie requests. We generally have a movie theme woven in to each month; some examples of themes have been Alfred Hitchcock, Classic Musicals and Tom Hanks favorites.

BINGO is a popular game here at Pacific Gardens. We play daily in the afternoon.
We love a competition! We have many tournaments throughout the year. Some residents’ favorites are our golf tournaments that are played on our courtyard putting green and our Wii Bowling tournaments.

Each month the Activity Director meets with residents for an Activity Committee Meeting, where upcoming activities are highlighted and activity suggestions and feedback are given. With new activity suggestions, the Director works to integrate them into the calendar. It is our goal to be inclusive and find activities that everyone can enjoy here at Pacific Gardens!

The Memory Care Activity Program at Pacific Gardens is designed to enrich the lives of our residents with dementia of varying stages, offering activities to socialize, reminisce, create and explore. Relationships with residents, families and staff are cultivated through shared experiences and enjoying time spent together.

Our Activity Room is equipped with a full kitchen where residents love to work with Activity Staff to bake delicious treats such as brownies, cookies and cherished family recipes. Baking offers opportunities to stimulate all five senses. Residents also enjoy gathering for sing- a-longs, trivia and time to share and reminisce about their lives.

Our program changes daily based on the needs and interests of our residents; some activity examples are card games in small groups, dominos, watercolor painting, crafting, fine motor manipulative games, puzzles, baking, singing, trivia and bingo.

Our Memory Care Community also offers a lovely patio where residents enjoy looking for butterflies and hummingbirds. When the weather is beautiful, as it so often is in the Santa Clara Valley, we move activities outdoors for some fresh air and sunshine. We also have a large aquarium; residents love watching the fish grow!
