Happy New Year!
We brought in the next decade with a New Years Eve tea party, and capped it off with singing.
Best wishes to you and yours in the coming year! 🎉

Merry Christmas from Ashbourne to you and yours! 🎄
We believe play is important at any age, so we decided to have a snowball fight in exercise class today. ❄⛄ Some of our residents have quite a throw! Good thing our "snowballs" were only pom-poms!
"Leading up to Christmas we’ve been finding Tom activities that he can do with each of us within his abilities. One daughter has been bringing her Christmas cards and getting Tom to address the envelopes and put on the stamps. This got him reminiscing about the past few Christmases.”
Any guesses where we are going for our Armchair Travel event tonight? 🇸🇪
A little Christmas cheer
"25 per cent of Canadian seniors live alone, but there lies a little-documented population within that demographic that live in acute isolation."
If you know a senior living alone in Garneau and surrounding areas who could use some support, we have a Community Connector that can provide referrals to resources.
We see this every day at Ashbourne! That's why we have Angee -our Community Connector- who can help our residents find volunteer opportunities that are meaningful for them!
The hot topic of conversation at Men's Coffee Group today was the Oilers loss to the Ottawa Senators last night. At least a loss is easier to swallow with hot coffee and good company. ☕🏒
It's a good day for cuddles.

We had a wonderful outing to the Wild Rose Old Tyme Fiddle Association fiddle jam! Lots of smiles, laughter, singing, and dancing!

A powerful story...
