Mountain West Bank volunteers brought hygiene kits for kids in the area who are in need of a boost! Eli and his team worked together to build these kits, knowing the need in our community is greater than ever. These kits give kids more than hygiene--they give confidence, dignity, and remind them that people CARE. #liveunited #utwv

Ponderosa Elementary 2021-2022 Sensory Room Install

In 2020 our Community Relations team toured Ponderosa Elementary.  We discovered the schools need to install a sensory room. 

These rooms can serve multiple purposes. They can promote self-organization, be a calming area, provide leisure, help with sensory integration, or act as skill training centers. A well-designed room can also serve people of all ages, multiple disabilities, as well as facilitators, teachers, parents, caregivers, and therapists. 

Those with multiple disabilities often have sensory impairments. By controlling sensory input in the room it is possible to eliminate distractions and assist people to attend to specific objects that may help them make sense of their external environment. A sensory room can also provide these additional benefits:

  • Modulate the environment so that you can reduce the opportunity for over-stimulation.
  • Creates a safe space with tools students can use to self-regulate and manage anger, over-stimulation and stress.
  • You can create a controlled space to assess the type of environment a student is most comfortable in and the sensory activities a person is most responsive to. 
  • You can create a comfortable space for students to relax in to help them interact with others. 
  • Provide a safe crisis and de-escalation area.

Three teams of MWB employees painted, installed sensory tools and implemented the hanging fiber optics panel.  Thank you to our Loan Ops & Commercial Real Estate teams for coming together to make a COOL place for kids in Post Falls!
