Wellness Calendar and Description of Classes
Wellness Center In the News
For Rancho patient, humor health the soul -
"In 2009, Jay became the first Rancho patient to be appointed Director
of Rancho’s Performing Arts program. Under his leadership, the program has
been enhanced to year-round status, and has been expanded to local schools
and elderly care facilities. Past Rancho patients are now able to entertain
throughout Rancho at annual events and inpatient classes, as well as twice
a year at the Performing Arts of Rancho show."
So you think you can't dance? - "Some of the
participants in their program have physical or cognitive
difficulties as a result of spinal cord injury, acquired brain injury,
stroke, neurological illness, or amputations, and others may be experienced
and trained dancers. Regardless of ability, all of these factors disappear
once they reach the dance floor."
