“I Want My BVTV!” The residents of Bethany Village thrive because of our strong sense of community. So, when group activities were suddenly restricted, we helped bring that community into their homes. Bethany Village TV (BVTV) became an integral hub for live and pre-recorded Bethany programming. Church services and community events were joined by Resident Council meetings, fitness classes, and a new show called “Bethany Buzz,” to help keep residents informed and engaged with life on campus. Creating Meaningful Connections With in-person visitations restricted, Bethany Village worked closely with resident families to provide their loved ones cake, decorations, and birthday greetings. We catered “mobile happy hours” via golf carts to independent living residents, and we wheeled hospitality carts room-to-room in our licensed care areas. But, most importantly, we helped to organize safe meetings – both virtually and socially distant – with the people our residents loved the most.
