As National Skilled Nursing Care Week 2019 marches on at iCare Health Network care centers, the photos keep on rolling in. Today’s post has 30 pictures from seven care centers hosting a series of different fun events for residents and staff including Zumba, Game Shows, Anniversary Parties, Arts and Crafts, Decades Day and more. 

On April 25th the recreation team at Parkville Care Center, led by Katie Jeans, took possession of a custom built Domino table, emblazoned with artwork celebrating Puerto Rican heritage. Custom built by Julio Rivera for the residents of Parkville Care Center to put to immediate use. Shown here as Julio constructs the base and the finished product. 

Parkville Care Center welcomed several distinguished guests for a small Open House gathering. Hartford Mayor Luke Bronin and Representative Minnie Gonzalez spoke to a group of Parkville supporters, residents, staff and iCare team members inside Brookman Hall.  Hartford Councilman James Sanchez and leadership from Aetna Ambulance Service toured the facility and spoke with residents and staff. 

On January 25, 2019, iCare Health Network assumed operation of Park Place Health Center on Greenwood Street in Hartford. The 150-bed skilled nursing care center will emerge and operate under the name “Parkville Care Center” as recognition of its important place and history in the Parkville neighborhood of Hartford. Park Place has played a vital role in skilled nursing and long-term care for the City and region, especially for the Hispanic population it has historically served.
