Talent at the Simkin Centre

We’d like to introduce you to Marilyn Abosh. She assists our Therapeutic Recreation Department with her lovely painting abilities. She spends approximately 3 hours per week painting displays for the Department’s programs. Marilyn takes pride in her work and enjoys the recognition she receives from fellow residents, families, visitors and staff. Below, Marilyn stands by two pieces she painted for the Queen’s Birthday Celebration.

Father’s Day Fish Fry

Our male residents had a blast today at the Father’s Day Fish Fry. The event brought back memories of fishing and sipping some beer by the lake. (picture posted with permission)

World Elder Abuse Awareness

June 15, 2016 is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. Staff are encouraged to wear purple to honour survivors of elder abuse. There are posters in the Fireside Lounge that will help you identify elder abuse. There is also a draw for prizes. If you show up at the Fireside Lounge wearing purple at 2:00pm tomorrow (Wednesday, June 15th), there will be a group photo taken and it will be posted here. Elder abuse is everyone’s business. ‪#‎WEADD2016‬
