Recently, Brightview Senior Living hosted a car parade at the Bel Air community. Families of the residents drove a parade of cars through the community waving brightly-colored posters and balloons. They made their way through the parking lot, giving residents an opportunity to see their family and friends, as the coronavirus pandemic has limited visitation.

Brightview staff has been working with residents and their families to keep up communication with FaceTime or phone calls and the use of other technology. The parade was a great opportunity to create in-person experiences for residents while adhering to precautions from the CDC.

Several safety precautions were put in place including proper social distancing of residents along the parade route, only allowing families to pause for a moment to see their loved ones and posting staff members in a designated area to accept gifts for residents were among other measures communicated to families and staff prior to the event.
