How to Celebrate National Senior Citizens Day with Your Loved One in Jenkintown

As a home care agency that has provided professional care for seniors in Jenkintown, Ambler, Abington, Philadelphia and surrounding communities in Eastern Montgomery County, PA, Visiting Angels understands and appreciates the importance of Senior Citizens Day. Here’s how you can celebrate this holiday with your loved one.

Every year on August 21st, we celebrate National Senior Citizens Day and everything America’s seniors have done for this country. We can all agree that they deserve to be celebrated every day of the year, but having the opportunity to honor our elderly population every August is also a blessing. At Visiting Angels we have provided in-home care for seniors for decades now, so this holiday is very dear to us. Here’s how you and your loved one can make the most of this holiday in Eastern Montgomery County.

A Cherished Holiday

Although this holiday is not as popular as Mother’s Day or Father’s Day, it is still very significant. National Senior Citizens Day was first made a national holiday in 1988 when Ronald Reagan signed it into law with a presidential proclamation. Even more than three decades later his words are still completely true: “For all they have achieved throughout life and for all they continue to accomplish, we owe older citizens our thanks and a heartfelt salute.”

This president also said that Americans need to make their communities great places where people can grow older. As a home care agency that provides care for seniors, we can definitely get behind this sentiment.

Celebrate in Style

This year make sure you celebrate National Senior Citizens Day with your senior loved one. Since many restaurants and venues offer special senior discounts on this day, consider taking your parents or grandparents to a nice dinner at one of the many restaurants at Piazza on the Square in Jenkintown.

Since it’s summer, you could also enjoy numerous outdoor activities with your loved one. If they enjoy spending time outside, this will definitely be a treat for them. Consider going fishing or playing a round of golf at Alverthorpe Park or view the view observatory at the Briar Bush Nature Center in Abington.

Of course, if your senior loved ones prefer to spend a quiet night in, that is also a great option. Surprise them with their favorite meal, spend time with them going through old family albums, listen to their stories, watch their favorite movies together, play chess or cards or engage in their favorite activity.

Whether you spend time together at home or go see a movie at the Hiway Theater, the important thing is that you show your aging loved ones you care about them.
