Raynisha has worked as the Activities Coordinator for Northgate Terrace, a senior community in Oakland, CA since March 2018. As the activity’s coordinator Raynisha has a huge responsibility of keeping the residents engaged and entertained each day. Her programming is diverse and includes arts and crafts, bingo, movies, exercise classes, games as well as workshops, guest speakers, socials and bus outings. The residents at Northgate are really busy and at any given time can find something to do. In addition to the loads of activities, in partnership with Spectrum, Raynisha and her team serve a donation based hot lunch to the resident Monday through Friday.
Raynisha loves her job and finds pure joy in supporting her residents. It has been proven a senior’s overall health and wellbeing are enhanced by regularly participating in activities that bring purpose, hope and joy. Those seniors who engage in activities have better mental health, feel less isolated and have an overall better quality of life. Raynisha is committed to helping her seniors age in place in a safe, comfortable and active community.
Raynisha feels fortunate and honored to have the opportunity to serve this vulnerable community of amazing people.
