Our outings include visits to the Sandy Flats sugar bush, local farms and antique car shows, as well as shopping and fishing trips. An annual highlight is lunch at Elmhirst Resort followed by a leisurely boat cruise on Rice Lake. Our dedicated volunteers add much to the good times we have at summer barbecues, annual bazaars, shopping excursions, holiday dinners and celebrations. Children, local entertainers and clergy visit us regularly.

Our residents are valued members of our home's management team. Our Residents Council provides the opportunity for residents and their family members to  participate in planning and evaluating the services in the home and supports a strong line of communication between residents and administration.

Letter:
Finding a home
for Mother...
My wife and I would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude and appreciation on the way you and your staff have made my mother feel so much at home at Burnbrae.

It comes the time in everyone's life that the family has to make the decision for one of their loved ones to be placed in  a Long Term Care Home.

In January of 2000, Shirley and I began combing the area searching for what we felt would be a proper establishment for Mother, where she would be content and well taken care of.  After viewing more than 40 Nursing Homes, we were directed to Burnbrae Gardens.  We stepped inside the door and knew this was going to be the right place.

Mother moved in mid March of 2000, being able to bring a lot of her personal items with her, making her room look like home.

Your staff, from Nursing to Housekeeping, and Kitchen Staff have been tremendous, not only in the performance of their position but also in the love and concern that they show to all the residents.
