recently given a Best Practices Award for their
Resident Christmas Picture Project. The award
will be given out at the ND Long Term Care

This is a wonderful project for the residents and
their families.
Everyone gets involved and that is a big reason
that the Care Center received this award.

     The Nelson County Arts Council has received a grant that is providing a six month art
program at the Nelson County Health System Care Center. The program began in
January and will run through June. The program is designed for residents who have
limited mobility and other health problems and may not otherwise be able to participate
in such activities. The program will feature four North Dakota artists who will conduct
week long projects with the residents. Each project will include one evening for which
residents' families can come and participate in the activities. There will also be two local
artists that will do projects with the residents.
    Nelson County Health System Care Center is one of three nursing homes in the state
to be selected to participate in the Arts for Life program.
