‘Music of Our Times’ and Finding Love at Woodside Terrace<br />

(continued from previous page)<br />

A different theme each year<br />

Every year there is a theme at Woodside Terrace.<br />

This year the theme is “music of our times.”<br />

Each month, a different genre of music will be<br />

highlighted. January, for example, showcased bigband<br />

music, which flourished in the 1930s as the United<br />

States recovered from the Great Depression.<br />

What’s in store<br />

This year should be “a great year” for Woodside<br />

Terrace, Haworth stressed, noting that it will focus<br />

on continuing to provide great service and great<br />

training for staff. Who knows, maybe there will be<br />

more stories of people finding love at Woodside<br />

Terrace this year or in the years to come.<br />

How to find an independent living and/or assisted living facility<br />

Choosing an independent and/or assisted living community is a very big<br />

decision and an important step for seniors and their families.<br />

If you are in the process of trying to find such a community, what’s the best<br />

way to find one? What are some things you should do and consider?<br />

It’s a good idea to visit the community at different times of the day, for<br />

example, at morning and at night, said Connie Haworth, executive director<br />

protem at Woodside Terrace in <strong>Redwood</strong> City.<br />

During your visit, take note of whether residents seem to be happy. Are<br />

they playing cards with one another and in general do they seem to be<br />

enjoying life?<br />

Also, are staff friendly, smiling and talking to residents?<br />

It’s important to trust your instincts when you visit, Haworth said. Go with<br />

what your heart and mind are telling you. If you visit and feel like it would be<br />

a good fit, it probably will be. And if you don’t feel like it’s going to work for<br />

whatever reason, it’s a good idea to continue looking.<br />

You should always read the contract carefully before you sign it, Haworth<br />

stressed. It is important to make sure you understand everything for which<br />

you are going to be charged.<br />
