MASONIC VILLAGES

You helped residents enjoy meaningful moments and ensured families peace of mind. While the pandemic continued to affect everyday life across Masonic Villages in 2021, residents, staff and families were able to experience renewal and joy. Seeing families reunite after long periods of time apart were the most rewarding moments for everyone. Staff remained creative and diligent in ensuring residents felt connected, cared for and dignified. With the proper education, equipment and protections in place, we’ve learned to actively live with COVID-19 precautions and are prepared to adjust to changes in the future.

While not every event and activity looked as it did two years ago, we were excited to host our annual Veterans Walk to honor those who’ve served, a balloon volleyball competition, concerts with the Mummers and other programs, as well as celebrate holidays, birthdays and anniversaries. Residents were able to embrace these experiences without safety or financial concerns. Most people living into their 80s, 90s and even 100s, had not considered the longevity Americans now face. Statewide, more than 50% of Masonic Villages’ long-term care residents cannot afford the care they receive.
