Club Fed or Rest Home???
Club Fed bears a striking resemblance to your Nana’s retirement home in Boca…..
Attire consists of:
Elastic waist pants (maybe not en vogue but certainly comfy!)
Comfortable/rubber soled shoes (more Wheezy than Yeezy)
Blended fabrics for easy wash/wear (did I mention water/fluid repellent?)
Dining options:
Weekly meal schedule (if it’s Wednesday it must be burger day!)..changed semi-annually
Dinner at 5pm daily (gives you plenty of time to digest before 10pm lights out)
Special meals for holidays (New Year’s, Fourth of July, etc.)
Lodging:
Antiseptic smell
Sheets cleaned weekly
Easy wash floors/walls
Activities include:
Board & Card Games (Canasta anyone?)
Group exercise classes (Step, Yoga, Pilates)
TV Room with Free Cable
Music/Choir groups (most participants are tone deaf…or deaf in Nana’s case)
All types of religious services provided (see related post “Are you there God it’s me WCC?”)
Medical attention:
Daily medical/pill line
Nurses on call 24/7
Dentist on site (see related post “McDreary”)
Transportation is provided between lodging and dining room (if needed/handicap)
Other commonalities:
People bicker over TV channel choices
Residents complain about minor things
No cash/tipping allowed
