In celebration of July being “National Wheelchair Beautification Month”, staff at Oak Ridge Manor along with Girling Healthcare employees and volunteers helped decorate residents’ wheelchairs and walkers.

Wheelchairs and walkers were decorated with flowers, ribbons, metallic fringe, stickers and even glow in the dark items.  Residents chose decorations and enjoyed visiting with those helping in the event.
