ACTIVITY DEPARTMENT QUILT RAFFLE
Tickets are on sale until the draw date of May 12th for the beautiful quilt created by our residents and volunteers. Please see Nathalie or Mariah to purchase yours! The proceeds will go to the Residents’ Council.

FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN
Donations may be made anytime online through our website: passamaquoddylodge.ca/donate, or by e-transfer to foundation@passamaquoddylodge.ca or in person at the Lodge. We appreciate your support!

To date we have raised funds to purchase a soft ice cream machine and two Broda chairs. We are still fundraising for two meal delivery carts.

RESIDENT TRUST STATEMENTS
We will be transitioning to emailing all resident trust statements. Please send the email address for the statements to: Kristen Stevens at kristen.stevens@passamaquoddylodge.ca or call (506) 529-5240 ext. 5243.

RESPECTFUL CONDUCT and COMMUNICATION
We want to encourage open communication with families, but we do ask that you keep your comments respectful to all of our staff. If you have a concern please remember to speak to a manager or Charge Nurse. As your residents’ representative, we request that you advise other family members visiting that respectfulness is necessary. Thank you for keeping this in mind.

TIME TO SPRING CLEAN
With the change of seasons, residents will be needing their lighter summer clothing. Please sort out your resident’s closet and dresser drawers, taking home winter items and replacing them with lighter ones. Unfortunately we do not have storage space to keep all items here. Also, they will need a summer hat and sunglasses for outings.

PLEASE DO NOT BRING IN ANY TYPE OF MEDICATIONS
Please do not bring in any medications of any kind; over the counter items or otherwise. We continue to find some residents with items they should not have at their bedsides as per our Nursing Home Standards. Thank you for your continued support.

VISITATION
We encourage you to stay up to date on vaccinations, stay home if you are sick, practice good respiratory etiquette, and sanitize your hands prior to entering the facility and frequently as needed. Masks will continue to be readily available. We have received our next Covid booster for residents and plan to administer the vaccine in May.

ALLERGY ALERT
Please do not bring in any items with nuts, peanut butter or latex (balloons) due to Allergies. Thank you! Also, please remember we are a fragrance free building.
