Dining teams have the ability to enhance the familiar homemade atmosphere for residents, visitors, and families by purposefully engaging the senses of smell, sight, and taste.
75% of the emotions we generate are affected by our sense of smell. Next to sight, it is the most important sense we have. * Of all the senses, the sense of smell is the most potent trigger of memory.
