Alternate Solutions

We are extremely excited to announce a new partnership for our therapy and home health care programs.  Alternate Solutions Homecare is our new partner and we can't wait to reveal all of the amazing improvements they are going to be making to our therapy room, including a total remodeling of the therapy space.  They will be offering massage therapy, weekly therapeutic exercise classses and monthly resident talks and our Wellness Clinic.

i.g.n.i.t.e. is a uniquely designed intergenerational program used solely at The Woodlands. The Woodlands is an Assisted Living and Alzheimer’s Care community located at 5380 East Broad St., in Columbus. 

i.g.n.i.t.e. was created to enhance the lives of our residents while benefiting children ages pre-school through 12th grade with the opportunity to learn from and experience the knowledge and nurturing of an older generation, thereby igniting the fire of a lifetime of  amazement with education and the wonder of life.  We are proud to offer a wide variety of opportunities for individuals, classes, groups and organizations to partner with us.  A few examples of previous projects have included the following: Pen Pal Programs, Choir Performances, Craft Projects, Book Creation and Bible Study/Church Service.

We tailor each program or project to size and age of each group.  We currently are excited to have one-on-one student volunteers through groups of 75.  Healthy, peanut-free snacks are provided and each young group program is concluded with the reading of “Oh, the Places You’ll Go” by Dr. Seuss.  We believe this book summarizes our goal of the i.g.n.i.t.e. program and has an inspiring message for all generations.

In addition to inviting the youth to our community, we also welcome the opportunity for us to attend programs at your specific location. Our residents have enjoyed theatrical and choir performances and art shows.
