Planned Power Outage November 28, 2023
Share Planned Power Outage November 28, 2023 on Facebook Share Planned Power Outage November 28, 2023 on Twitter Share Planned Power Outage November 28, 2023 on Linkedin Email Planned Power Outage November 28, 2023 linkThe new generator installation is going very smoothly and its completion is less than a month away. The remaining electrical work will require three to four power interruptions, each lasting up to 4 hours. The next outage is planned for Tuesday, November 28th, 2023, from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm. During this outage, we will be powered by our temporary generator which provides partial power to the building. As a reminder, resident rooms will not have power as they normally do during a power outage.
Due to limited power in the main kitchen and the inability to keep meals hot, a modified cold lunch will be offered.
Should you have any questions or concerns please reach out.
Thank you for your patience

Activity Department Outings
Share Activity Department Outings on Facebook Share Activity Department Outings on Twitter Share Activity Department Outings on Linkedin Email Activity Department Outings linkThe Activity Department is excited to announce that our bus outings are underway! We had our first trip on Nov. 14th when residents ventured out for a country drive. There are more upcoming lunch trips and country drives planned for the remainder of the month. Please watch the activity calendars monthly for these events.
Volunteer support is an important aspect of being able to offer outings to our residents. If you or someone you know wish to volunteer on our outings or for programs offered in the home, please contact the Activity Department.
With the weather changing, it’s a great time for family members to bring in proper winter gear for residents to go out in the community. Hats, gloves, mitts, scarves, coats, and boots for your loved one would be appreciated if you feel that they might like to either go outside or go on an outing.
