On Thursday, September 10th, residents, family members and staff enjoyed a festive BBQ thanks to Paul Spinola, Seacoast’s Culinary Director, Alison Cox, Seacoast’s Activities Director and their outstanding teams.   The rain changed the plans a bit but suddenly the first floor of Seacoast was transformed into  BBQ Central complete with picnic tables and checkered table cloths.   Spirits weren’t dampened thanks to the lively music and delicious BBQ dinner.  The evening ended with a visit from ice cream truck delivering treats to all.

Georgia Forrest, a life long resident of Gloucester celebrated her 100th BD at Seacoast Nursing & Rehabilitation Center surrounded by family, friends and local dignitaries.  Family came as far from the west coast to share this momentous occasion with Georgia.  Mayor Sefatia Romeo Theken was in attendance to present one of a number of certificates and citations to Georgia in honor of her 100th BD.  Representatives from Bank Gloucester were also present and thanked her for her years of service as a dedicated employee. Seacoast’s executive director, Stephen Doyle, led the party goers in a enthusiastic rendition of Happy Birthday.

All of us at Seacoast wish Georgia a Happy and Healthy 100th Birthday!

Seacoast Nursing and Rehabilitation honored it’s employees with multiple years of service, during a Employee Recognition breakfast this past week.  Awards and gifts were given to employees that had been with the company in some cases, as long as 20 years. 

It was a fantastic event, and perhaps the most meaningful moments came when the residents applauded and cheered as each name was announced.
