Masonic Homes of California

Some big news, times two: The newly opened Citrus Heights Health Center skilled nursing residence at the Masonic Homes of California in Covina has won not one, but two prestigious architectural design awards. This month, Senior Housing News’ Architecture and Design Awards recognized Citrus Heights in its Skilled Nursing and Post-Acute Care category; additionally, the International Interior Design Association has bestowed its Healthcare Design Award on the Masonic Homes' project. Thank you to all Masons and lodges whose fundraising and tireless efforts helped bring this long-dreamed-about project to life. With the Citrus Heights Health Center, Masons and their families have access to skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and memory care, removing the need to seek higher levels of care away from campus. #MasonsofCA #Freemasonry #SeniorCare #HealthcareDesign #MasonicHomes #SkilledNursing #Rehabilitation #MemoryCare #Masons #ArchitecturalAwards #SeniorLiving

Alzheimer's disease can pose a significant challenge for #seniors, impacting their cognition, memory, and daily function. However, there is an unexplored avenue that promises immense benefits: creativity. Engaging in creative activities can have profound therapeutic effects, especially for seniors with #Alzheimers. Creative expression through art, music, and writing can stimulate the brain, enhance mood, and improve overall well-being. Research has shown that creative engagement can help seniors with Alzheimer’s by providing a sense of purpose and accomplishment. It can also foster social connections, reduce feelings of isolation, and improve quality of life. By incorporating creative programs into our care routines, we aim to create a supportive environment where seniors can thrive. Whether it's painting, crafting, or participating in music therapy, these activities offer a valuable outlet for self-expression and emotional release. At Masonic Homes, we believe in the transformative power of creativity. We are committed to providing opportunities for our residents to explore their creative potential, thereby enhancing their #cognitive function and emotional well-being.

Thanks to changes in eligibility announced in 2023, for the first time in its 125-year history, the Masonic Homes of California is now open to #PrinceHall Masons, as well as their spouses, parents, and parents-in-law—providing access to Masonic #ReliefServices to more California Masons than ever before. That includes entry into the Masonic Homes’ communities in Union City and Covina. While this partnership between the Masons of California and Prince Hall Grand Lodge of California is an important step in bringing the two fraternal organizations closer together, it’s also serving an immediate need: The average cost of #SeniorHousing rose more than five percent nationwide in 2023, an almost five-fold increase in the historic year-over-year costs. Through the Masonic Homes’ communities, which include #IndependentLiving, #AssistedLiving, #SkilledNursing (including #MemoryCare), Prince Hall Masons and their families now have access to senior living that’s affordable, safe, and, for many, close to home.
