Full Calendars, Full Hearts at Weston County Manor

At Weston County Manor, every day is an opportunity to live fully. Tucked into the heart of Newcastle, the Manor provides more than compassionate care—it offers a vibrant lifestyle filled with connection, creativity, and community.

“Our monthly calendar is bursting with life,” said Activities Manager Cheyenne Hayman. “We design a variety of events and programs that support every area of wellbeing—physical, cognitive, social, spiritual, emotional, creative, and sensory. That way, our residents always have opportunities to connect, move, create, and smile.”

Behind every program is a caring team of RN’s, LPN’s, Certified Nurse Aides, and staff who treat residents like family. Nutritious meals are planned by a Registered Dietitian, served by the dietary team and nutritional support aides and shared in the spacious dining room, where conversation and laughter flow as freely as the coffee.

“The activities department makes every moment count,” Hayman said. “We don’t just fill time—we create experiences that enrich lives and bring joy every single day.”

Whether it’s dancing to live music, planting spring flowers, or simply enjoying a game of dominoes with friends, life at Weston County Manor is about so much more than care—it’s about community, dignity, and living each day in full color.
