Resident Living

Beadles Nursing Activity Program endeavors to stimulate residents cognitively, physically and spiritually. Our goal is to promote self-esteem and independence through, small and large groups, music, games and outings. We are fortunate to interact with Alva Public School's kindergarten program. Alva High School clubs, Northwestern Oklahoma State University students and Northwestern Oklahoma Technology Center nursing students are regular visitors. Beadles has a long history of involvement with community organizations and church ministries. Our activity department initiated and coordinates annual Senior Challenge competition events for nursing home residents in Northwest Oklahoma and Southern Kansas.
