Hanover Hospital and Warren Clinic have developed an enhanced outdoor space for their long-term care residents, designed to improve well-being and build community connections. The project aims to create a vibrant and welcoming environment featuring comfortable seating, beautiful gardens, and recreational areas that cater to both residents and visiting families.

Supported by grants and community donations, the initiative reflects a commitment to fostering mental and physical health through exposure to nature and social interaction. Research shows such spaces boost mood and cognitive function, making this addition especially valuable.

The project not only enriches the lives of long-term care residents but also strengthens community ties. Community members are encouraged to participate in and support future efforts to cultivate a brighter, healthier, and more connected future for everyone involved.
