Welcome to Scene Magazine’s Annual Report issue. Scene offers area businesses and organizations an opportunity to update our readers about their most current activities. It’s also become a tradition in this issue to take photos of local folks and put them on the cover. Look at all those wonderful faces!
Read about safety and prevention this month. Create and implement a 12-month safety management system for your home. Learn how to protect against skin cancer. Discover peace of mind with technology supports for the person impacted by dementia. Read about steps you can take to get started on an exercise program. And caregivers, make sure to keep your health at the top of the to-do list. Taking care of yourself is not selfish – it’s smart. It's all in this issue.
The 2025 Senior Housing Directory focuses on determining the right solutions for you. Whether it’s in-home care or moving to a facility for support, you now have a tool that can make evaluating your housing options easier. This guide examines the differences in care, how to cover the costs for care, as well as helps you design a checklist for your needs. Also read about the role of the caregiver, choosing your advocate, and developing your advance directives.
Scene Publications seeks to have a positive impact on the community we serve. We seek to offer information to the reader that allows them to make their own choices regarding a variety of issues from health care to daily living. We strive to share activities happening across our service area to help community members find ways to get involved and to enjoy the community they call home.
Scene Publications offers a positive voice for our community through its signature publication, Scene Magazine. Scene Magazine began as a community cheerleader with the intention of helping to share all that our community has to offer. Scene Magazine seeks to recognize those that are making a difference. The Remember Book is a Scene Magazine extra that highlights the history of the greater Battle Creek, Marshall, and Springfield area.
Scene Publications later introduced Senior Times of South Central Michigan to help mature adults enjoy their aging years but also to learn about resources available for the changes that are yet to come. Senior Times searches for ways to advocate for the mature adult and to provide valuable information that will help them to plan for future decisions.
The Senior Housing Directory was later introduced as an extension of Senior Times to focus specifically on housing related issues. This annual publication helps to evaluate housing options, including the choice of remaining in the current home by making necessary changes. Planning documents are addressed as well.
We always welcome your input. Thank you for your interest in Scene Publications.
