Exploring the Dimensions of Wellness Through Case Study


Case Study 5

Emotional Wellness Fun and Function Model

Trudy Lommerse lives at St. Leonard and she has an interesting outlook on wellness. She feels good at 94 and says that aging for her has been so gradual that she does not really feel any different from when she was 74. Her wellness philosophy is to do what you can about a problem and then not worry about it!

Trudy was born in Holland and after coming to the United States worked at DP&L for 28 years as a computer librarian. She and her sister Liny traveled all over the world together and enjoyed learning about different cultures and demographics. Trudy continues to stay active with outings and social events and is an avid reader, which often takes her away to foreign lands as she reads each adventure.

Case Study 6

Social Wellness Fun and Function Model

Liny Lommerse is a resident of St.Leonard and feels that her optimal wellness lies in the social dimension of the Vital Nation Wellness Spectrum. Her wellness philosophy is about feeling a deep sense of gratitude for each person she meets and definitely for her family and lifelong friends.

Liny worked at DP&L for 30 years in the payroll department and when vacationing, traveled with her sister Trudy all over the world. Liny and Trudy together filled five passports each during their travels and today this serves as a record of the vast amount of knowledge and cultural growth that they shared throughout their lifetime. Liny is currently one of St. Leonard Studio Artists who paint beautiful sceneries and aerial landscapes, bringing beauty and distant travel to our annual artshows.
