Today marks the dedicated annual observance known as Ageism Awareness Day, which focuses on addressing and reducing systemic age-related discrimination.

Ageism Awareness Day is an opportunity to draw attention to the impact of ageism in our society and work together to build age-inclusive communities.

Ageism refers to stereotypes (how we think), prejudice (how we feel), and discrimination (how we act) toward others or ourselves based on age. It negatively impacts our health and well-being, our financial security, and the economy. It impacts us at every age.

Transforming dementia care starts with breaking traditional boundaries!

This week at the Ribbon Town Conference and Event Center in South Bend, Chrisi Karcz, Senior Vice President of Quality and Risk Management at Gardant, and Rafael Corona, Gardant's Clinical Educator, led an insightful presentation on "Beyond Compliance: How a Multidisciplinary Team Reimagined Dementia Care Delivery" at the 2026 Midwest Dementia Summit!

It was an inspiring experience when we can connect with healthcare professionals, caregivers, and community leaders who share the same passion for person-centered support.

Thank you to ALZNI for hosting such an impactful event!

Some love stories begin in unexpected places. For Sean and Rubi, theirs began in senior living, and their connection to Bardwell Residences goes back even further!

Sean, Activities Director at Bardwell Residences in Aurora, and Rubi, Marketing Director at Heritage Woods of South Elgin, first met while working together at a senior living community. They fell in love and eventually took positions at different communities, but their shared passion for serving seniors has always remained a special part of their story.

And here’s the amazing full-circle connection: both Sean and Rubi were born at the “Old Copley” hospital, what is now Bardwell Residences! Years later, Bardwell would become part of their love story, too.

When it came time to announce their upcoming wedding, they chose another place with special meaning: their Save the Date photos were taken at Bardwell Residences in their historic Irvin Hall. From the place where they both entered the world to a backdrop for the beginning of their next chapter together, it doesn’t get much more full circle than that!

2 weeks ago, Bardwell residents surprised the happy couple with a wedding shower that had been more than a month in the making. It was a beautiful celebration for two people who have given so much love, joy, and care to the residents they serve.

Then, over the weekend, Sean and Rubi officially said, “I do!”

Born at old Copley. Brought together through senior living. Save the Date photos in Irvin Hall. Careers dedicated to serving seniors within Gardant Communities. And now, husband and wife.

Sometimes life has a beautiful way of bringing us right back to where our stories began.
Congratulations, Sean and Rubi!

On Wednesday, our Clinical Educator, Rafael Corona, Senior Regional Director of Engagement, Kim Mead, and Vice President of Wellness & Engagement, Meghann Giarraputo, became certified as Dementia Friends through a Dementia Friendly America training led by Emily Greene as part of the Dementia Friendly Kankakee County movement.

Dementia Friends is a global movement that helps communities better understand dementia and turn that understanding into meaningful action.

We were reminded of five important messages:
💜Dementia is not a normal part of aging.
💜Dementia is caused by diseases of the brain.
💜Dementia is not just about memory loss.
💜 It is possible to live well with dementia.
💜 There is more to the person than the dementia.

Becoming a Dementia Friend is more than a certification, it’s a commitment to turn understanding into action, lead with compassion, and cultivate environments where every person feels valued, respected, and connected.

Will you join us and become a Dementia Friend today? https://dfamerica.org/dementia-friend-online-session/
