Whether it’s for a long-term or rehabilitation stay, it’s only natural for new residents to feel anxious about keeping up with their family members. However, there are ways to make this transition smoother, through the use of technology.

Since we introduced wi-fi access to our residents a few years ago, we’ve noticed that residents’ moods are improved in a big way. Because they can stay in touch, they feel like they can still be a part of family activities and special events. Even if they can’t be there in person, seeing the faces of their loved ones lets them know they still play a vital role in the relationship. This feeling of connection ensures the emotional well-being of all our residents.
Of course, it may seem like a simple thing to have internet access available for your loved one. But, it makes all the difference between getting through the day and living it. At MediLodge of Munising, our primary goal is helping our residents get the most out of life. We are always available for any questions or concerns you may have. Contact us about wi-fi access or anything else that’s on your mind!
