From the moment we’re born, new experiences are key to our growth as individuals. That’s why they’re intrinsic to life at Inspīr Carnegie Hill. We bring in fresh programs and perspectives from a variety of engagement partners to support our philosophy of caring for the whole self. Each day, we purposefully integrate all of our Nine Core Elements into daily activities—keeping our residents engaged and vital.

For 145 years, 92nd Street Y, New York, has been serving its communities and the world at large by bringing people together and providing exceptional, groundbreaking programs in the performing and visual arts, literature and culture, adult and children’s education, talks on a huge range of topics, health and fitness, and Jewish life. Our residents are able to take advantage of their diverse programming, events, and classes offered through the Himan Brown Senior Program. Additionally, we’ve built the Living Voice project, developed by award-winning composer Beth Styles to assist members at 92nd Street Y, New York, living with dementia.

The Jewish Museum works with the Inspīr team to customize gallery programs, hands-on art-making workshops, and more to give all Inspīr residents the chance to connect with art and history. Their signature dementia program, JM Journeys, provides unique experiences specifically for Oceana residents. This partnership offers a free museum membership to Inspīr residents, along with programming both at the museum and on-site at Inspīr Carnegie Hill.

Hilarity for Charity® (HFC) is a nonprofit movement, led by Seth Rogen and Lauren Miller Rogen, dedicated to raising awareness, inspiring change, and accelerating progress in Alzheimer’s care, research, and support through the engagement of millennials. We presented “It’s All in Your Head: Live!” to benefit Hilarity for Charity at 92Y in February 2020, and we are working with them to produce future residency programs to serve as another great resource for our Oceana families.

The Alzheimer’s Association is the leading voluntary health organization in Alzheimer’s care, support, and research. Their mission is to eliminate Alzheimer’s disease through the advancement of research; to provide and enhance care and support for all affected; and to reduce the risk of dementia through the promotion of brain health. Inspīr Carnegie Hill uses their Habilitation Training for all Inspīr associates, to ensure that all staff—from nurses to dining to concierge—understands dementia and its impact on the individual and families of Inspīr.

Sweet Readers is a weekly program for Oceana residents. This intergenerational program at Inspīr Carnegie Hill connects local middle school children to residents living with dementia. Together, they write poetry, complete art projects, read, and most importantly, connect. Sweet Readers allows for strong resident engagement—providing purpose and accessibility to art and music, all while aiding brain health.

RESIDENT SPOTLIGHT

"Here, there is no lack of stimulating intellectual programs. They take advantage of the city’s arts, culture, entertainment, and food.
I’m taking a memoir writing class and started a film club, and we have regular screenings in the theater."

– Marilyn Snyder (Maggie Burke)
