Movies, Veterans, and Vintage Planes: Inside Engagement at Arbor

What happens when a company says yes to big ideas? In this episode, host Phil Rizzo sits down with Angel Allaire, Vice President of Engagement and Training at The Arbor Company, who brings 33 years in healthcare and 20 years with Arbor to the conversation. Angel shares how a single brainstorm led to The Golden Gang podcast, how residents directed and starred in a short film that screened at the Garden State Film Festival, and how veterans took flight in a restored World War II plane through Ageless Aviation. Along the way she explains the Dementia Live training that changes how caregivers see the world, the "be well, be social" approach to programming, and why a culture that encourages dreaming big makes all the difference for residents and staff alike.
