During LCS National Week of Wellness & Well-Being, residents marked the launch of LCS Life+™ with wellness experiences designed around the four core pillars of Movement, Nutrition, Connection and Longevity.

From MIND diet-inspired culinary experiences and brain fitness activities to tap dancing and croquet championships, the week showcased the many ways residents can pursue well-being.

The best part of LCS Life+ is that it's personal. Residents are just beginning to experience their own unique "plus.“

Movement, one of the four pillars of LCS Life+™, is about helping our residents maintain strength, balance, flexibility, and confidence to continue doing the things they enjoy most.

👟 During the LCS Week of Wellness & Well-being, residents are working together toward one shared goal: One Million Steps.

More than a challenge, it's an opportunity to move, connect, and engage. Every step moves us forward, together.
