The streets around Ditmas Park Nursing and Rehabilitation Center were filled with laughter and celebration last month as the facility transformed into a lively carnival. Located at 2107 Ditmas Ave, the nursing home hosted a free block party that brought together families, friends, and neighbors for an afternoon of fun and community bonding.
The block party, which took place on Sept. 15 right in front of the nursing home, featured a variety of carnival rides and games, delighting attendees of all ages. The festive atmosphere was filled with the nostalgic scents of Slush, cotton candy and popcorn, making the experience even more immersive for everyone who attended.
Excitement ran high as prizes were handed out throughout the day, adding to the thrill of the event. Children and adults alike could be seen with smiles on their faces as they participated in the games and enjoyed the entertainment.
Ditmas Park Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, located in the heart of Flatbush, was founded in 1981 and has been a cornerstone of community care ever since. The building that houses the facility was constructed in 1975, providing a spacious and comfortable environment for residents.
Events like the September block party are just one way Ditmas Park Nursing and Rehab Center fosters community engagement, a core element of their mission. In addition to providing high-quality care for their patients, the facility remains dedicated to building a sense of connection and support within the local neighborhood.
