Camden Care Center was honored with the Dare to Be Great Award at the Care Providers of Minnesota annual convention. The award recognizes a group for the courage to try something new/different that enhances the lives of residents. Camden Care Center received the award for taking residents on a four-day Caribbean Cruise, something no other nursing home has ever done. In November, after nine months of preparation, Camden Care Center staff and residents (who were medically able to fly) went on their great adventure. Even the residents who couldn’t go helped with the planning and had their own “cruise activities” at the center. The center’s administrator Robert Letich says they are planning another cruise for 2012, which will include an on-board wedding of two residents!
