We here at Oak Hills strongly believe that it is important to have family be involved with their loves ones as much as possible. This is why we not only held a Thanksgiving Dinner with about 150 in attendance and Christmas dinner with about 160 in attendance. We will like to extend our deepest gratitude to all family members who joined us for these dinners. We believe that having events such as those are great healing to the mind, body and soul. We are a rehab unit and healing is our ultimate goal. January is here which means a start of a new year which brings new opportunities. January is a time to cast out the old and welcome in the new, a time to reflect on events of the previous year and improve some aspects of daily life. With January comes winter. Winter means snow, shorter days and colder nights. In January we will be taking an Outing to the Hollywood Casino in Lawrenceburg Indy Casino.
