Living Every Day to the Fullest at Ovation Communities

At Ovation Communities, staying active isn’t just encouraged—it’s part of who we are. You’ll find residents taking a scenic walk along the lakefront, joining a movement class, or engaging in thought-provoking discussions and creative arts sessions. Whether at Chai Point, the Jewish Home & Care Center, Kavod Terrace, or through our Adult Day Services, older adults are thriving in a community that celebrates movement, meaning, and connection.

Being active is essential to aging well. Our engaging calendar is thoughtfully developed and filled with purpose-driven experiences, including fitness and wellness classes, cultural outings, outdoor adventures, live entertainment, art workshops, educational lectures, religious enrichment, and intergenerational programming. As Kavod Terrace Dementia Specialist Katie Lobacz says, “Watching the faces of my residents light up when they are doing an activity they love or trying something new and exciting is just the best; nothing can compare.”

Every day presents an opportunity to experience something meaningful. After exploring the joy of the outdoors, one resident shared, “Thank you for the adventure; it was a great day to be out in the country.”

At the heart of it all is connection. “Ovation Communities embraces the concept of living life to the fullest,” says Kimberly Rosenau, Director of Activities at the Jewish Home. “Moment by moment, we build connections which build into rapport which build into community—inside and outside of Ovation.”

Every experience is designed to promote well-being and independence, no matter a resident’s level of care. With our full continuum of services—including independent and assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing, and adult day programs—residents receive personalized support while continuing to live vibrant, engaging lives.
Ovation Communities doesn’t just support active lifestyles—we create a home where older adults can truly live every day to the fullest.

“It’s a great honor for me to support our residents in staying active—no matter their age or ability. I truly love seeing them thrive, doing what they enjoy, and staying engaged. Helping enhance their quality of life through meaningful, joyful activity is the heart of what I do.”
