Letter from the Administrator: Oct. 28 is National Chocolate Day If you always like to accompany your cup of coffee with a chocolate cookie or other chocolate-based treat, you should probably be familiar with at least its three main categories:

Most notably used for cooking, Dark Chocolate can contain anything from 30% to 75% cocoa solids. It has a slightly sweet, slightly bitter flavor and a dark color. This chocolate is often called luxury or continental chocolate.

Milk Chocolate, as its name suggests, contains milk and has lovely creamy, mild, and sweet flavor. It is mostly used as an eating chocolate. However it does have its place in chocolate cookery, especially for decorations, and when a milder, creamy flavor is required.

White Chocolate contains lower cocoa butter content and cocoa solids. It can be quite temperamental when used in cook-ing. Always choose a luxury white cooking chocolate to avoid problems and take great care not to overheat when melting it.

SUCCESS STORY: MRS. CHLORINE L.Mrs. Chlorine L. readmitted to

our facility after a decline due

to her CHF and colostomy

difficulties resulting in

mobility deficits. Mrs. L. came

to the realization that she was

ready to make St Andrews

Bay her home as a long term

resident in order to have

access to community outings

and remain active to maintain

her active lifestyle.

Physical Therapy established goals for functional standing

balance, bed mobility, transfers and gait with a rollator in

order to allow Mrs.L. to participate in activities programs,

attend outings within the community and achieve her highest

level of functional independence.

Occupational Therapy evaluated and determined goals for

functional standing balance during ADL tasks and ability to

perform self-dressing and bathing tasks in order to attain her

optimal level of quality of life as a planned long term

resident of the facility.

Speech therapy developed a plan of care centered on her

functional problem solving, memory and ability to follow

command skills in order to allow her to participate in facility

activities and functions while expressing herself and

decreasing her risk of social isolation.

Mrs. Chlorine L. improved in all areas of her Physical,

Occupational and Speech Therapy abilities and now

resides as a thriving resident within our facility whom

has a greeting and a hug for everyone! We appreciate

Mrs. L. choosing us as her skilled therapy providers

and ultimately giving us the privilege of meeting her

daily care needs as a long term resident here at St

Andrews Bay Skilled Nursing & Rehab.
