Spring has sprung and construction is almost done!!!
Until construction is over, please continue to follow the signs to the rear entrance of the building(if accessing the nursing home). With the snow gone, there are some areas of landscaping that has been affected. We have contracted a new landscape provider to help us beautify our outdoor spaces. New outdoor furniture has been ordered to help us enjoy some our new courtyards. Again, if you have any comments or questions please feel free to contact me through the front office.
Any questions, please call:
Leslie ext-255
Any questions regarding the construction please call:

When the ground hog casts his shadow
And the small birds sing
And the pussy willows happen
And the sun shines warm
And when the peeps peep
Then it is Spring”

From Administration
Spring is upon us and we are hoping the dark and rainy weather of March leads to sunny and warm days.
As the weather gets nice we will be starting our outdoor walks again.
Just a reminder to go slowly when coming in and out of the parking lot and watch for Residents as they enjoy the warm days ahead.
Thank you,
Tracie and Leslie

Welcome to Spring!
We will be having a spring cleaning/activity from April 18-22! This will entail activation help along with housekeeping. We will be cleaning all rooms with residents help or without them, your choice. Family members are welcome to join us to help purge and bring the clean spring time into our home. Any questions please feet free to call me at Ext 277.
We would also like to remind you all that those pesky pests will come in if food is not kept in baggies or containers.
Very soon the cleaning of our gardens will be happening to get rid of the winter dirt and debris.
Window cleaning will be done soon also, no date set at this time. It will be the thorough cleaning inside and out. Once a date is confirmed I will inform you all!
Health and Happiness,
Glenna Grimmer
