September is Healthy Aging Month—an opportunity to recognize the importance of supporting wellness, independence, and quality of life at every stage of aging.

Healthy aging is about maintaining an active and engaged lifestyle, staying connected, and making choices that support overall well-being. From morning stretching and nature walks to swimming and seated exercise, there are many ways to stay active and find opportunities for movement and connection.

At Distinctive Living, we believe healthy aging is about more than staying active—it’s about creating meaningful experiences, fostering independence, and approaching each day with purpose and positivity.

Celebrating Sammiria “Sam” Thorington, whose dedication and compassion help make every dining experience at CaraVita Village feel welcoming, personal, and like home.

As Director of Restaurant and Hospitality, Sam has been a dedicated member of the CaraVita Village team for over a year. What she loves most about senior living is the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with residents and make a positive difference in their everyday lives.

For Sam, mealtime is about so much more than the food being served. It’s a chance for residents to come together, socialize, connect, and enjoy a sense of home. She takes the time to know residents personally, understand their preferences, and make sure they feel heard, cared for, and welcomed every time they enter the dining room.

Sam brings dedication, compassion, reliability, and a genuine commitment to her work each day. She is also a dependable leader who never hesitates to step in wherever she is needed, supporting both her residents and her team with a positive attitude and a willingness to help.

Thank you, Sam, for the care, leadership, and heart you bring to CaraVita Village and the entire Distinctive Living family. Your dedication helps turn everyday meals into meaningful moments of connection. 💙
