Menorah Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing Care Fund

For many of our residents with dementia, a music therapy program helps unlock hidden joys. A phenomenal, data-driven curriculum created by MJHS experts called Keys to Dementia Care outlines how the use of music and instruments can re-open minds and rejuvenate relationships. Because of donations from donors like you, MJHS can continue to train its staff on music-assisted care techniques that result in a higher level of care and stronger bonding between residents, family members and staff.

Our spiritual care specialists focus on caring for the whole-person, which encompasses spirit, mind and body. They serve those who are ill, family and friend caregivers, and other health care professionals who deal every day with the stress of illness and loss. They provide religious services at holidays and special occasions throughout the year and develop relationships with our residents, even performing a variety of life cycle ceremonies.

The creative arts therapy team supports the unique needs of our patients and family members through music, art and other creative approaches. Our team creates a safe space for patients and their families, including children, to create legacy projects, work through and express their emotions; and receive supportive counseling to develop healthy coping skills.

The Patient Care Fund is dedicated to meeting the health and quality of life care needs for the patients and families of MJHS. Funded solely by charitable contributions, the fund is able to assist in the purchase of items and services deemed appropriate by the patient, patient’s family and MJHS caregivers, such as wheel chairs, walkers or grab bars. Each patient is eligible for up to $500 of assistance annually through the fund.

The opportunity to laugh, smile and be active should never be underestimated. From live music and dance, to art and cooking classes, we offer an endless array of activities to enrich the lives of our patients and residents.
