Activities

Promoting wellness and independence is paramount to living well for our residents and a priority for The Dixon House. To meet the social, spiritual, and cultural needs of each person, a full calendar of engaging activities and experiences is planned for a broad range of interests by our full–time Activities Coordinator. Entertainment by local musicians, pen–pal friends with school–age children, weekly visits from Pets on Wheels and regularly–scheduled church services are carefully intended to nurture mind and body.

There’s no shortage of fun and stimulating programs at The Dixon House. Each resident can enjoy the freedom to choose how often or little they wish to participate. With activities as diverse as our residents, they can enjoy planting a vegetable garden, hone their putting skills with a game of Wii Golf, play a friendly game of Scrabble or express artistic abilities with watercolor painting. Additionally, one–on–one time is devoted to residents who prefer and benefit from a more intimate setting and attention.

Whatever the choice, become energized and look forward to each new day. And of course, join in the many parties planned for nearly every occasion including birthday celebrations, a highlight of each month.

Community

A connection with the local community is vital for every resident. The convenient uptown location of The Dixon House is ideal for dining out, shopping or taking a stroll around town during Easton’s monthly "First Friday" Gallery Walk. An abundance of cultural attractions and a diversity of amenities are within a few blocks of The Dixon House.

A supportive volunteer network, including the Academy of Arts, Master Gardeners, Neighborhood Center and churches of various denominations, help residents stay connected to church, social groups and civic programs.

Residents can take advantage of the close proximity to doctors, specialists and hospitals for expert and prompt medical services, with a local shuttle service available for their transportation needs.
