Dining and nutrition team members at Oriol Health Care celebrating National Nutrition Month with healthy foods and personalized care

Discover the Power of Nutrition: Celebrating National Nutrition Month® at Oriol Health Care

March 30, 2026/in Uncategorized/by Angelique Harvey

Nourishing health, supporting recovery, and enhancing quality of life — one meal at a time.

March is recognized nationwide as National Nutrition Month®, an annual campaign by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics focused on helping individuals make informed food choices, build sustainable healthy habits, and stay active.

The 2026 theme, “Discover the Power of Nutrition,” highlights something we see every day across Oriol Health Care:
✨ Nutrition plays a vital role in healing
✨ It supports strength, independence, and overall well-being
✨ It helps prevent and manage chronic conditions

At Oriol Health Care, nutrition is more than a meal — it’s an essential part of the care we provide.


The Role of Nutrition in Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation

Whether someone is recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, or receiving long-term care, proper nutrition is a cornerstone of better outcomes.

At our facilities, nutrition supports:

  • Recovery and rehabilitation
  • Immune system strength
  • Energy and daily function
  • Overall quality of life

Our teams work closely together — from nursing to therapy to dining services — to ensure each resident receives meals tailored to their needs, preferences, and goals.


Recognizing Our Nutrition & Dining Teams

As we close out National Nutrition Month®, we want to recognize the incredible professionals who bring this work to life every day.

Holden Rehabilitation & Skilled Nursing Center

We are proud to recognize:

  • Jeanette Bermudez, Director of Food Services
  • Abbi Wood, Registered Dietitian

Their leadership helps ensure residents receive nutritious, balanced meals that support healing and well-being — while creating a dining experience that feels comfortable and familiar.

Oakdale Rehabilitation & Skilled Nursing Center

We are proud to recognize:

  • Randy Tremble, Director of Dining Services

Randy and his team play a key role in creating meals that nourish, support recovery, and bring enjoyment to residents each day.


More Than Nutrition — It’s Care

At Oriol Health Care, we believe that food is deeply connected to comfort, dignity, and quality of life.

From personalized meal planning to restaurant-style dining experiences, our teams go beyond nutrition to create moments of connection, familiarity, and care.

Because here, it’s not just about what’s on the plate —
it’s about how we care for the people we serve.

At Oriol Health Care, we are proud to recognize the power of nutrition — and the people behind it.

Make July A Month for Caregiver Self-Care

July 18, 2024/in Uncategorized/by Angelique Harvey

Make July A Month for Caregiver Self-Care

July is a perfect time to focus on self-care, especially for caregivers who dedicate so much to others. Taking care of yourself is crucial to maintaining your well-being and effectiveness. Here are some simple self-care tips for caregivers this month:

1. Prioritize Your Health

Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water, especially during the hot summer days. Keeping hydrated is essential for your overall health and energy levels.

Eat Nutritious Meals: Fuel your body with healthy, balanced meals to keep your energy up. Include a variety of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains in your diet.

2. Take Breaks

Schedule Downtime: Plan regular breaks throughout your day to rest and recharge. Even a few minutes can make a big difference in reducing stress and increasing productivity.

Practice Mindfulness: Spend a few minutes each day meditating or simply being present in the moment. Mindfulness can help reduce stress and improve your emotional well-being.

3. Stay Active

Exercise Regularly: Engage in physical activities you enjoy, like walking, yoga, or swimming. Regular exercise can boost your mood and increase your energy levels.

Get Outside: Spend time outdoors to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air. Nature has a calming effect and can help improve your mental health.

4. Connect with Others

Reach Out: Talk to friends or family members to share your experiences and feelings. Connecting with loved ones can provide emotional support and reduce feelings of isolation.

Join a Support Group: Connect with other caregivers who understand your challenges and can offer support. Sharing your experiences with others in similar situations can be incredibly comforting and helpful.

5. Treat Yourself

Pamper Yourself: Take time for activities you love, whether it’s reading, gardening, or watching a movie. Doing things you enjoy can help you relax and unwind.

Get Creative: Engage in a hobby or try something new to relax and unwind. Creativity can be a great outlet for stress and a way to express yourself.

6. Seek Help When Needed

Ask for Support: Don’t hesitate to ask for help from family, friends, or professional services. Seeking assistance when needed is a sign of strength, not weakness

 

Remember, taking care of yourself is not a luxury but a necessity. By prioritizing your own well-being, you’ll be better equipped to care for others. Happy July and happy self-care!
