At Laurel Place Care Centre Partnership, we know that meaningful activities and daily connection can make a wonderful difference in a resident’s quality of life.
Each month, we highlight a STRIVE story from across our communities that reflect how our core values come to life in everyday moments. This month’s stroy comes from our sister location, Shaughnessy Seniors Community:
“The recreation department underwent a major transformation, introducing a vibrant calendar of activities such as baking, pet therapy, church services, Bingo, breakfast and lunch clubs, happy hours, ice cream socials, high tea, live entertainment, garden walks, bus outings, and specialized dementia programming. Community connections were expanded by welcoming local students for performances and sing-alongs. Sonia’s creative leadership was instrumental in driving these enhancements, which have significantly improved residents’ quality of life, increased family satisfaction, and fostered greater pride and collaboration within the team.”
Creating diverse opportunities for engagement ensures everyone can stay active, connected, and supported in ways that bring joy to their daily routine.
