VERO BEACH, Fla., Dec. 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- At Watercrest St. Lucie West Assisted Living and Memory Care, residents and associates recently embarked upon a month-long movement of 'Giving Thanks,' part of a themed series of Watercrest's Common Unity initiatives. At Watercrest, Common Unity initiatives inspire a sense of community at each location, while fulfilling needs in their hometowns and supporting residents in staying connected in meaningful ways.

Residents and associates at Watercrest St. Lucie West Assisted Living and Memory Care enjoyed 'Giving Thanks' this November as part of Watercrest's year-round Common Unity initiatives.

The 'Giving Thanks' initiative encourages residents and associates to engage, interact, and creatively express their appreciation to members of their community.

Watercrest St. Lucie West kicked off the initiative with a Veteran's Day recognition event, respectfully honoring all military veterans and their spouses who served in the United States Armed Forces. Veterans were presented with certificates and commemorative pins in honor of their service and patriotism.

Inside the community, residents created a 'Thankful Tree,' writing everything they feel thankful for, and also expressing their gratitude to the staff with a huge 'Wall of Appreciation' which covered an entire wall inside the associate lounge.

Residents, family and friends gathered together for a festive Thanksgiving celebration, gave special thanks to their dedicated team of volunteers, and united in collecting food for the Office of Aging.

The Watercrest St. Lucie West staff stepped up for a 'Watercrest Cares Clean-Up Day,' adopting a one mile stretch of highway in front of their building to preserve the beauty and cleanliness of their community.

"It is truly rewarding for our associates and our residents to participate in giving and engage in expressions of gratitude, all which contribute to the betterment of our community and our hometown," says Bobi Kruemberg, Executive Director of Watercrest St. Lucie West.
