Activities
The goal of the recreation therapy department is to maximize the quality of life and independence for all those who live at Milwaukee Catholic Home. Residents of the Health and Rehabilitation Center can partake in many different recreational activities. Activities are adapted to each resident's abilities, allowing them to be successful and promoting necessary feelings of self worth. Activities may include crafts, baking and cooking, music therapy, games, live entertainment and exercise. Programs are offered to maintain and enhance cognitive, social, physical and spiritual functioning. Our staff is enhanced by the service of an Occupational Therapist, Recreation Therapists, an Art Therapist, and a Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant.
Intergenerational
Residents have the opportunity to participate in activities with the children of CSM Children’s Center, located on the Milwaukee Catholic Home Campus. Group activities such as singing, baking, and gardening, bring two generations together. There are opportunities for both generations to build valuable relationships, as well as learn from each other.
