The activity professional strives to enable residents to be self-determining and independent - challenging the mind and body while nurturing the spirit.

Our DFW activity professional community has lost one of its own, the incredible Janet Correira. In this field, we are connected by more than just a job; we share a purpose, a compassion, and a commitment to those we serve. Janet was part of that shared mission, and her presence mattered.

We extend our deepest condolences to her family, friends, and residents and colleagues at Edgemere. Please see the service information below for those who wish to honor her life. It will be held at Edgemere, 8523 Thackery St. Dallas TX 75225.

Look at this cutie! This is the 4 year old nephew of one of my students who is now going to be the official Wednesday mailman at the community.
