Mulherin Custodial tries to make available to their residents any and all activities in which they can take part and which will bring them happiness.  Following are some of the activities in which they take part:

 

School age residents attend Augusta Evans Public School and older residents go to MARC for training purposes, if they are capable of benefiting from training.

 

Those who are able attend church, attend camp, play soft ball in Adaptive Soft ball leagues, swimming in the summer, go on field trips and outings, picnics, take part in school activities, Special Olympics, Mardi Gras festivities, bowling, eating out and other special occasions as they arise.

 

Each resident’s birthday is celebrated with a party and decorations are put up in the Home for every special day.

 

The in-house celebrations include all residents, including bed patients in order that they have feeling of being included in the family life of Mulherin.

 

All residents, who are able, are assigned special chores around the Home, and they guard their “job” zealously and take pride in their accomplishments.

 

One of our residents has, for many years, taken part in the United Way Rallies at the various businesses in Mobile and has been recognized for his outstanding contribution to this work.

 

The above are a sampling of activities provided for the enjoyment of our residents and as things arise, which we think they will enjoy, we quickly incorporate them in our activities.
