UPDATE FROM PROTEM
TANYA WEATHERBEE : MEMORY CARE COORDINATOR & ADMIN SUPPORT
MIHAELA CALIN : DIRECTOR OF CARE
Dear family members and friends of ProTem Memory Care, We had a great October at our homes. Residents took part in Thanksgiving festivities, Halloween fun, crafting, time outdoors, participated in Andrews/ProTem’s resident art show, gardening and special visits from Courtney and Trixie as part of K9 therapy through the Saint John Ambulance program. This month we will observe Remembrance Day, enjoy special musical performances from Pastor Phil Williams and Cyan, host more visits with Courtney and Trixie and start getting ready for the Christmas season (where did the last 12 months go?) We hope you all had a happy Halloween weekend and wish you all the best this November! Sincerely,
- Tanya & Mihaela
