Life at The Middletown Home
During her stay at the Middletown Home, Beth's enthusiasm for creating connections has extended to our Facility Dogs. Recently certified as a Primary Handler for Blanche, our Facility Dog, Beth orchestrates heartwarming visits for residents, both within the facility and beyond. Blending her academic and compassionate worlds, Beth has even brought Blanche to some of her college classes, seamlessly intertwining her two realms of existence. Looking ahead, Beth envisions expanding her role by becoming a Puppy Raiser for Susquehanna Service Dogs, channeling her passion for animals into a tangible and impactful endeavor.
Beth's love for animals is not limited to Blanche, though! Her bearded dragon, Juno, resides in her apartment and has become a source of fascination and delight for fellow residents. Beth takes pride in educating them about these unique pets, conducting engaging presentations that allow residents to interact with Juno firsthand, fostering a sense of curiosity and connection.
In addition to her academic and animal-related pursuits, Beth generously dedicates her time to various activities at the Middletown Home. From Bingo and Paint Nights to Movie Nights, Bus Trips, and Bible Study, Beth's vibrant presence enhances the overall experience for residents. Embracing a new chapter, Beth will spend her summer months at the front desk, taking on the role of our newest receptionist. If you find yourself walking into the Middletown Home and spot Beth at the desk, don't hesitate to extend a warm greeting.
