We don’t know a lot about how the pandemic will impact our lives over the coming months and years, but I do know that our “Super Trouper” Staff and their unwavering commitment to the Village Community will ensure that Village Residents and Community Care Clients continue to receive the very best care and services we can deliver. We are so incredibly blessed to have the team of Staff we have in all Departments across the Village. Despite the discomfort, the Staff are stepping up in droves to work extra shifts to ensure that we have a full roster so they can deliver the very best care and services possible to the Lodge Residents.

Yesterday was ABBA day in the Manor and the Residents “travelled” to the Greek island from the movie Mamma Mia. As I sit and write this month’s newsletter, I am quite overcome with emotion, I cannot find the words to express how overwhelmingly proud I am of our Staff and the lengths that they will go to for Residents.
