The Pines Resident & Family Portal

Our residents have chosen Germany as their destination for this month’s “visit,” and we’re excited to explore it together. On February 26th, our meals and Life Enrichment programs will highlight German culture, traditions, and cuisine. We invite residents and families to join us in celebrating this vibrant country and enjoying the tastes, stories, and experiences it has to offer.

In collaboration with Public Health, the Birch and Spruce Home Areas remain in a Respiratory Outbreak. Currently, several residents are experiencing symptoms such as coughing, congestion, and/or a runny nose. Families have been notified, and we are currently awaiting test results from Public Health.
