| The Program Department strives
to provide high quality programs to meet the social, emotional,
physical, cognitive and spiritual needs of all residents.
Programs are offered seven days a week and come in many different
forms: from individual, one on one to large group events.
All residents are encouraged to participate in programs of
their choosing. Family members are always welcome!
Diet and Nutrution
Good nutrition and attractive tasty meals are an
essential part of our service. Nutritional goals are achieved
through our Nutritional Care Manager and staff, with input
from the Consulting Dietitian, Residents Council and you.
Three meals a day plus three nutritious snacks are
provided for the resident. Alternate selections are available
and residents
are made aware of the choices at each meal. Special and therapeutic
diets and nutritional supplements are provided to the resident
as the need arises. Feeding devices are also available for
residents, as the need is indicated (i.e. rimmed plates, special
cups, built up utensils). Meal service is provided in the
dining rooms.
Environmental Services
Laundry and cleaning services are provided on a full-time
basis under the direction of our Environmental Services Manager.
Residents’ clothing is laundered in the home within
a 48-hour turnaround time. Therefore it is requested that
all clothing items be washable and easy care. Labeling for
Resident’s clothing is provided by the home free of
charge.
Regular housekeeping and maintenance duties are carried out
in accordance with Ministry of Health regulations to ensure
that the resident’s environment is clean and safe.
