CONSTRUCTION UPDATE
Renovations are almost done! We
continue with the final phase of
construction by the end of
summer. The temporary
hoarding wall will come down by
the end of August. There will
also be an intercom system with
visual display installed at the
main LTC entrance in the near
future.
August we will be
celebrating National Sandwich
Month, as well as National Ice
Cream sandwich day. We will
do a Culinary Tour of Brazil in
honor of the summer Olympics
and back by popular demand a
Wine and Cheese tasting.
LTC will be starting the new
summer/fall menus on July
18th. The menu runs in a 4
week cycle. Reminder to
residents to keep hydrated in
the hot weather.

From Administration
Just a reminder to all families and
visitors that for “safety reasons” 8th
Ave on the Retirement home side is
NOT to be used as an access for
visiting residents in Long Term Care.
There are a few very specific and
limited exceptions to this which only
include spouses. ALL other visitors
to Long Term Care should please
utilize our new LTC entrance.
*306 competitions in 42 different sports will be
held in 17 days
Thank you,
*Golf (returning after 112 years) and Rugby
(returning after 92 years) will be the “new”
sports of the Olympic Games

We hope you all have been enjoying the warm
weather! Birds are singing, flowers are lovely and
everyone seems to be smiling.
Please remember to our pesky pests, make sure you
have all food in baggies or sealed containers, this
will help to keep them away.
Also, families who visit the LTC side and are
bringing in clothing please remember the
procedure for labelling:
** Take the clothing to the nurses station and
Nursing staff will place in a clear bag with the
residents name and what is in the bag on it. This
will ensure they get to laundry to label. We
document the date and items labelled in the log
book.**
On another note, any maintenance requests you
need to please inform nursing staff and they will log
in out maintenance book. The requests are picked
up Monday to Friday by maintenance.
