Thank you to all of our friends & family members who have made donations to our Memorial Garden. We are looking forward to the spring and working outside in the gardens together.

With Easter quickly approaching, we would like to remind friends & family to please refrain from bringing lilies into the home as we have numerous staff members who are allergic.

Resident Council is currently holding a raffle fundraiser to win this beautiful hand crafted bird house. The house is on display in the front lounge of our home. Tickets are $2.00 each or 3 for $5.00. Please see Activities to purchase tickets.

Our residents would like to formally congratulate our new Resident Council President, Tony Vancoillie! We are all excited to work with Tony and we know he will be an excellent voice for all of the residents.

We had a wonderful time hosting some of our couples in Paris for a Valentine’s Day Luncheon. Thank you to everyone who participated and celebrated with us!

Care Partner Support and Well-being Groups are an opportunity for self-care. They are for all Care Partners affected by Alzheimer’s disease or related dementias and offer an opportunity to share experiences, learn new coping strategies and take time for oneself. We are very fortunate to have a care partner/well-being support group available in the Wallaceburg area and know that some of our families currently attend. It is held on the last Wednesday of each month from 1:30-3pm at the Chatham-Kent Family Health Team (30 McNaughton Ave).
