Laugh Cafe draws seniors to Sibley Hospital for fun and health
At Sibley Memorial Hospital in Washington, older adults meet for Laugh Cafe near the cafeteria alongside the Senior Association, part of a broader program offering activities like French and Italian classes, museum trips, tango lessons, and discounts. The program started in 1987 with health groups, drawing more than 10,000 seniors to date, while experts debate marketing versus genuine health benefits and Medicare implications.
