- At the West Center, we focus on creating opportunities for our residents and day program participants to be successful and productive. As isolation ends, we often find that individuals become more comfortable and less agitated. Purposeful and meaningful activities to bring a sense of duty, accomplishment, and increased self-esteem. Our programs focus on care of the environment and care of self. Simple tasks, like folding and hanging clothes, or sorting by color and shape, restore normalcy and are often very effective in increasing happiness and quality of life. We offer a licensed Musical Therapist twice weekly, providing not only entertainment, but listening, cognition, and physical play. As you may know, West Center residents are grouped on each suite by stage of disease. The music therapist visits each suite and varies her offerings to address the specific needs of those in attendance.
