Emerald Gardens Retirement Residence

At Emerald Gardens, we believe that knowledge is power.

Each month, we highlight a STRIVE story from across our communities. This month’s story comes from our sister location, Emerald Gardens.

"Regular Resident Interactive Sessions, led by educators and community partners such as the RCMP, Fire Department, and Senior Fraud Prevention, keep residents informed and engaged in important conversations about safety and well-being. Coffee with the Team also gives residents weekly opportunities to connect with staff in a relaxed setting."

Rooted in Park Place’s values, these moments help residents feel supported, informed, and connected.

Knowing the signs of a stroke can make a life-changing difference. Think BE FAST:

Arm weakness
Speech difficulty
Time to call emergency services

Regular checkups and staying on top of your health also play an important role in prevention.

This week marks one that is near and dear to us: Nurses’ Week! We are so thankful for the incredible nurses across our Park Place communities who help bring compassion, dedication, and thoughtful care to our residents.

Each month, we highlight a STRIVE story from across our communities, which are examples of how our values show up in everyday moments. This month’s strive story comes from our sister location, Agassiz/Glenwood:

“A dedicated working group was established to improve the environment of the BSTN Care Unit, specifically for residents requiring specialized dementia care. The initiative centers on creating a comforting, home-like setting by incorporating thoughtful design, sensory comfort, and familiar elements. This approach aims to support the emotional well-being, dignity, and daily experiences of residents, reflecting a commitment to person-centred care. By fostering a sensory-friendly and familiar atmosphere, the program helps residents, families, and staff feel engaged, supported, and at ease. Ultimately, the initiative promotes dignity and well-being for residents while also bringing joy and purpose to families and staff, strengthening connections and creating a greater sense of home for everyone involved.”

This is just one example of how nurses across Park Place Communities continue to support meaningful experiences for our residents and help improve the quality of life for those they care for. We are so grateful for all of the nurses out there.
