find working and caring for those who have
been an integral part in the development of
our community to be such a pleasure.
These elders have so much to offer and to
share by way of life experience, humor and
reflection. Building a valued team to
provide care for these precious souls has
become my passion. I love to watch the

Office Manager |
"Building relationships with our residents
and their family members is one of the most
enjoyable and rewarding aspects of my
position as Office Manager. The challenge of
leaving a home after many years to start
again in a new environment can be daunting
at any age. My role allows me to provide
support during the transition, and the
opportunity to get to know the individuals
one on one."

active and social is important at any age.
As the Recreation Manager, I look forward to
putting smiles on the residents faces by
keeping them busy with activities that will

Nancy
Derbyshire
Food Services Supervisor |
"I enjoy being a cook in Southwestern Ontario because of all the fresh fruits and vegetables that we are able to incorporate into our daily menus. The residents love to hull strawberries, snap beans and husk corn. They often share their own recipes, which enhance our efforts to create a home-like atmosphere. My job as Food Service Supervisor challenges me to provide the best home-cooked meals, using the freshest products, while meeting the needs of all residents. The reward is in developing relationships with each resident on a daily basis."
