Congratulations to Simkin Centre Staff, Anthony Santos

002Congratulations to Anthony Santos on winning a $50 gift certificate after completing a survey for the University of Manitoba Research Study on Vitamin D.

On April 30, 2014, the University of Manitoba was at the Simkin Centre to conduct a survey to examine the opinions of people regarding Vitamin D supplementation.  We were one of five LTC facilities they visited.  These self-administered surveys consisted of 12 questions and only took about five minutes to complete.  A researcher set up a booth in the Atrium for the whole day.

After the surveys were complete, participants were entered into a draw for one of five $50 gift certificates per site for a local grocery store.
