🌟 Employee Highlight - Celebrating Filipino Heritage Month 🌟

This month, we’re honored to shine a light on Myrna, whose incredible 39-year journey as a Personal Support Worker is a true reflection of compassion, dedication, and heart.

From a young age, Myrna felt a deep connection to older generations, drawn to their stories, wisdom, and strength. That connection grew into a lifelong passion for senior care. For Myrna, this work isn’t just a career, it’s a calling rooted in respect, dignity, and love.

At Forestview, Myrna found more than a workplace, she found a community that shares her values. She was drawn to the warmth, positivity, and supportive environment where residents are not just cared for, but truly cherished.

What makes Myrna special is the way she connects with residents. She doesn’t just provide care, she builds relationships, shares laughter, listens deeply, and creates moments of comfort and joy. She understands that the smallest gestures can make the biggest difference.
Guided by integrity and accountability, Myrna takes immense pride in always doing what is right for her residents. Her decades of experience have taught her that exceptional care comes from teamwork, trust, and treating every resident like family.

You are at the heart of everything I do. You are never alone. I am here to ensure you feel safe, respected, and cared for, just like family, every single day. 

Myrna, your kindness, empathy, and unwavering dedication make a lasting impact on everyone around you. We are so grateful to have you as part of the Forestview family. 💛

What an inspiring day! 💜 Our Forestview residents proudly took part in the Alzheimer’s Walk to honour those affected by Alzheimer’s disease and to support those who care for them. Together, we raised over $800 for the Alzheimer Society—a meaningful contribution toward research, support, and awareness. We’re so proud of our residents for showing up with heart, purpose, and unwavering compassion. Every step taken and every dollar raised makes a difference. Thank you to everyone who walked, donated, and supported this incredible cause! 💜✨

Our residents had a wonderful time creating beautiful artificial flower bouquets today! 💐 From selecting vibrant blooms to arranging them with care, the joy and creativity in the room were truly inspiring. These handmade creations are more than just flowers—they’re expressions of artistry, patience, and the happiness found in doing something meaningful together. What a delightful way to brighten our community and celebrate the beauty of creating with our own hands! 🌸✨

Employee Highlight - Employee Appreciation Month

This May, we are proud to celebrate Joy, a compassionate and dedicated team member who has been part of the Forestview Retirement Residence family for the past 8 years.

Joy is known for bringing warmth, patience, and genuine kindness to everyone she meets. In her role, she does more than serve meals—she creates a welcoming dining experience where residents feel comfortable, respected, and cared for. She takes the time to learn their preferences, remember the little things that matter, and build meaningful connections that help residents feel truly at home.

What makes Joy so special is the heart she brings to senior care. For Joy, working with residents feels like caring for her own parents, which makes her role deeply meaningful. That love and sense of purpose shine through in the patience, compassion, and kindness she shows every day.

One meaningful memory Joy shared is how much it means to her when residents say they missed her after a day off, or when families take the time to thank her for the care she gives their loved ones. One moment that stayed with her was when a family member expressed deep gratitude because Joy patiently helped her mother understand the menu and feel included, even when communication was difficult. Experiences like this remind Joy why she loves what she does and inspire her to continue making a difference every day.

Joy also shared how grateful she is for the love and feedback she receives from residents and families. Their kind words and appreciation make her love her work even more and inspire her to continue giving her best each day.

Thank you, Joy, for the heart you bring to our community and for the meaningful impact you make on residents, families, and colleagues every day.
