Pelican Landing Assisted Living and Memory Care Honors Resident Traditions with a Great Duo Cook-Off

VERO BEACH, Fla., Aug. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- At Pelican Landing Assisted Living and Memory Care the individual life experiences and timeless traditions of each resident are celebrated and honored.  The team at Pelican Landing recognizes the importance of connecting each resident's cherished memories to their daily activities through the Personal Life Silhouettes program. When a new resident joins the community, the care team connects with family and friends to discover that resident's life story, including favorite music, personal interests and talents, treasured memories and beloved holidays.  

Each resident usually includes a favorite dish or treasured recipe passed along for generations and the annual Pelican Landing Great Duo Cook-Off creates a celebration of these culinary memories.  Residents team up with a Pelican Landing associate to recreate the dish of their choice and partner up with chopping, slicing, mixing and tasting.  The final creations are presented to the entire community for judging while residents share the stories and memories making each dish unique. 

"It's incredible to not only learn about the significance of our residents' treasured recipes, but also to witness the delight shared amongst their friends and neighbors," says James Brassard, Senior Executive Director of Pelican Landing Assisted Living and Memory Care.
