Students embrace new shelter across the street Pamela Roth Victoria News

The decision to open a temporary homeless shelter at the former Boys and Girls Club on Yates Street was met with much opposition from neighbours and parents of children attending a nearby school. But one month after the shelter (My Place Transitional Home) opened its doors to 40 campers from Victoria’s tent city, Central Middle School Principal Topher Macintosh said things are going smoothly and students are welcoming their new neighbours across the street.

According to Macintosh, three classes are working on projects to engage those staying at the shelter. One of those projects is a traditional aboriginal welcome song. Another class is making dinner to take over and be served, and other students, already making small lunches for staff, want to do the same for residents of My Place. “The adults were all worried about it but the kids thought there’s a need here so let’s see what we can learn,” said Macintosh. “The students and the staff of the school are embracing it. They are really working now to

make it a great learning experience.” Run by Our Place Society, My Place opened its doors the first week of January, bringing five to six people per day to the gymnasium lined with tents. Staffed around the clock, the shelter will remain open until April 30, offering showers, a place to store personal belongings, daily meals, a TV room, music room, computer room and library. Three people have now managed to find their own housing. PlEASE SEE: My Place shelter, Page A3

Finding missing people a daily task for Vic PD Pamela Roth Victoria News

Every time someone goes missing in Victoria, the file lands on the desk of Detective Chantal Ziegler. Last Thursday, she had two new cases to review. Someone usually goes missing every day. Many of the files often deal with an elderly person suffering from Alzheimer’s or high-risk youth with a history of running away. Ziegler is tasked with doing a risk assessment

on each person, finding out why they are missing and whether there’s any foul play. The first 24 to 48 hours are crucial as police gather as much information as possible to get a better understanding of the risks to the missing person. Their name, description and circumstances are entered into a police database to alert other departments. PlEASE SEE: Tips rolling in, Page A3

Distrikt disaster A passerby takes a picture of the hole left behind from a car that drove into the Distrikt nightclub on Thursday. The car slammed into the front entrance of the nightclub, then plunged partway down the stairs, sending debris flying. Police believe the 63-year-old driver lost control after suffering a medical problem. Nobody was injured.

While most B.C. drivers are honest when it comes to making insurance claims, there are a few that are hurting things for the rest of us in the province. Industry studies estimate that about 10 to 20 per cent of all insurance claims contain an element of fraud or exaggeration. Applying those estimates here means fraud is costing us up to $600 million per year, or more than $100 annually on every auto insurance policy. Fraud cheats everyone and comes in all shapes and sizes.

Other types of fraud are less obvious. Fraud like this includes exaggerating the extent of an injury, misrepresenting a previous medical condition or slanting the situation when reporting a claim. It’s not unheard of for people to embellish their claim by including vehicle damage unrelated to the crash, or to claim they can’t work when they’re actually back on the job. These tactics may not make the news, but the costs add up and come out of all of our pockets – we all end up paying for those who cheat the system. ICBC combats fraud with their Special Investigation Unit, which last year looked at more than 5,000 claims les. This includes a cyber unit that employs information publicly available on the internet and social media to investigate suspected fraudulent claims. They’re in the process of increasing their focus on investigations, including training and analytics technology that ags patterns and predictors of fraud. By stepping up efforts to reduce fraudulent and exaggerated claims, along with managing injury claims costs, ICBC is working to take pressure off rising insurance rates. Fraud. It cheats us all.

Tips still rolling in for historical missing person cases Continued from Page A1

If someone is a chronic runaway, officers will look at where they were last found, who their associates are and their lifestyle. If someone has a medical condition, contact is made with the hospital. If the case involves a child, however, officers immediately go into search mode. “For an adult, it all depends on the information we get. Sometimes they are a needle in a haystack, but sometimes people just lost sight of somebody and haven’t heard from them for a long time,” said Ziegler. “It’s very time consuming.” Victoria police have 20 historical missing person cases. The oldest dates back to 1956 and the most recent is from 2012. Advancements in DNA have opened up a number of resources for police to move the investigations forward. Last year, detectives matched a missing

Esquimalt person with someone who committed suicide. Although the cases are hard to solve, Ziegler said they haven’t gone cold. Some of the city’s most high-profile cases such as Michael Dunahee

and Emma Fillipoff are still getting tips from the public. Last week, police received five tips on the Dunahee case — a four-year-old boy who went missing from a playground at the former Blanshard Elementary School on March 24, 1991. As the 25th anniversary of his disappearance draws near, Ziegler expects more tips will pour in. Fillipoff was last seen on Nov. 28, 2012, walking barefoot on the cold street by the Empress hotel. The 27-year-old’s red Mazda 1993 van was found in

daughter and grapples with many unanswered questions on a regular basis. “It’s completely debilitating. Finding her alive will be closure. Finding her not alive will not provide closure,” said Shelley, who recently flew from Ontario to Victoria to purchase a billboard for Emma along the highway leading to Swartz Bay. “All I have is hope. She crosses my mind every single day. I walk around in a bit of a fog. I feel as if I have a lead blanket on top of me.” Ziegler and her

team take every tip seriously, even if it’s information that’s already been reported. As for the chronic runaways, Ziegler said it’s important they don’t get dismissed by the media whenever they go missing — such as a 16-year-old “at risk” aboriginal girl who’s missing yet again. “I heard the media is reluctant to forecast her as missing because she goes missing all the time. We have to understand that kids that go missing all the time, they are the ones at most risk,” said Ziegler. “There is a reason why she goes missing all the time. She feels misunderstood, there’s a lot of stuff going on in her life and she has no tools to cope with them. We need to look for her. We need people to care for these kids and we need to make sure they know the resources are available to them. We don’t give up on these people.” editor@vicnews.com

My Place temporary shelter going “extremely well” Continued from Page A1

Our Place spokesperson Grant McKenzie said it’s difficult to determine whether more will do the same since many people coming to the shelter are at the lowest point they’ve ever been. “A big part of our job is to try and get them back to normal. Some people we have to start off with an energy drink for breakfast. They haven’t been eating solid meals and we have to build up their strength so they can move onto soup and a sandwich,” said McKenzie, adding the shelter has a wait list of 45 people. “I think as they hear about it, they learn it’s not an institution, it’s a place that sets up to help them. They worry they’ll be judged or made to change their ways. We always believe in meeting people

where they are at and we know that to get further ahead in life, addiction isn’t going to get you there.” Staff at the shelter have been working to build trust with the new residents. Part of that involves working with the Umbrella Society to get some people into counselling and detox. As people get healthier, some have begun helping out with chores around the facility, such as cooking meals. Outside, staff pick up garbage and make sure needles aren’t scattered across the ground. Overall, McKenzie believes the whole process is going extremely well. “We’re certainly not encouraging drug use but we know that people are active in their addiction and we don’t want them out in the community. We’d rather have them in a safe place where we can keep

an eye on them,” he said. “You’re trying to build that little microcosm community, Across the street, the school has ground crews sweep the property every morning for any debris. So far, Macintosh said one needle has been found, which is typical even without a shelter across the street. A night time commissionaire has also been hired to help lock up of building and give custodians peace of mind. The school district, however, estimates it could face sudden and unplanned costs of $43,950 over the next four months as a result of the shelter. The province and school board are now arguing over who should cover the costs. “Those are very real costs. I am happy to do it, but it’s been many hours of my time and various support people’s time,” said Macintosh, who isn’t surprised by the

positive response from students and staff. “I think it’s fantastic. Central has a huge heart. As a school we have a real history of fundraising for causes and groups so I knew that pretty quickly after we settled into this, provided it was going well and it has been, that our minds were just going to shift to that.” Outreach workers from various community agencies continue to work with the remaining campers at tent city, which is estimated to be around 80 people. The provincial government (which owns the land) has issued a letter to the campers, encouraging them to find alternate shelter due to an increasing number of health and safety concerns. The campers, however, said they aren’t going anywhere. editor@vicnews.com

Construction of Pandora bike lane pushed back Price tag of bike lanes pegged at $2.09 million

CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF ESQUIMALT

Notice of Public Hearing

TAKE NOTICE THAT A PUBLIC HEARING will be held on Monday, February 1, 2016 at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers, Esquimalt Municipal Hall, 1229 Esquimalt Road, Esquimalt, B.C., to allow the Public to make representations to the Municipal Council respecting matters contained in the following amending bylaw: Zoning Bylaw, 1992, No. 2050, Amendment Bylaw No. 2864 provides for a change in the zoning designation of 826 Esquimalt Road [legal description below] shown hatched on the map below from RD-3 [Two Family/ Single Family Residential] to CD No. 96 [Comprehensive Development District No. 96].

Construction of a two-way bike lane along Pandora Avenue has been pushed back as the city continues to work out details of the design. The proposed 1.2-kilometre bike lane would run along the north side of Pandora Avenue between Store Street and Cook Street, becoming the city's first fully protected bike facility with a connection to the Galloping Goose trail via the Johnson Street Bridge. According to city staff, the design is 60 per cent complete and now pegged at $2.09 million — slightly higher than the original estimate of $2.06 million. The bulk of the cost is for electrical work and traffic signs that will need to be partially or completely reconstructed. Originally, construction was slated to begin in January, but now the final design won't be completed until March. Construction has now been pushed back to April.

An illustration of the two-way bike lane along Pandora Avenue. Fraser Work, director of engineering and public works, said the street project is probably the biggest the city has done since Douglas Street between Humbolt and Herald in the late 90s. “The reality is this is a significantly large project and takes quite a bit of digging in to work on all the details of construction,” said Work during a governance and priorities committee meeting on Thursday. “We want to make sure that this happens swiftly, but accurately as well.” According to a report to the committee, the amount of parking

spaces expected to be lost has now been reduced from 44 to 32, based on the current design. The bike lanes will be physically separated by parked vehicles using bollards, paint and some landscaped medians. At a transit stop on the 700 block of Pandora Avenue, the sidewalk will have to be narrowed and additional design work is required for specific zones such as Swans Hotel and the McPherson Playhouse. Cyclists could also have their own traffic signals at some intersections. In addition to the protected lanes on Pandora Avenue, a tradi-

tional painted marked bike lane will be introduced on Johnson Street in April. The two-way bike lane is part of council's plan to build a network of eight bike corridors throughout the city. More than $7 million has been dedicated for the installation of cycling infrastructure over the next five years. More neighbourhood meetings will be held during the next few weeks to make sure residents and business owners fully understand the network. A final recommendation will be made to council in the spring. editor@vicnews.com

OUR VIEW

Temporary shelter a positive story It’s interesting to see how a neighbourhood will react when they’re given the news that a homeless shelter will be opening in their community. When the province and city announced that a temporary shelter to house 40 people was going into the former Boys and Girls Club building on Yates Street in the Fernwood neighbourhood, it wasn’t exactly welcomed with open arms. Central Middle School is located across the street from the shelter, sparking safety concerns from parents and staff. Prior to the shelter opening its doors in early January, approximately 200 people attended a community meeting in the gym to voice their concerns. One woman feared homeless people would spill over from the shelter to camp in a nearby park. Another neighbour was concerned about the people who prey on the homeless, such as drug dealers and pimps. School principal Topher Macintosh was at a loss for words when the mayor informed him of plans for the shelter. Those concerns were no doubt legitimate, but so far none of them have been valid. Shelter staff have been diligent in making sure they are a good neighbour, picking up garbage and making sure needles aren’t scattered all over the ground. Crews also comb the school grounds every morning, but so far they haven’t found anything out of the ordinary. Staff and students at the school have in fact turned the shelter into a learning experience. A few classes are working on projects to engage those staying at the shelter, such as making and delivering them dinner, and singing songs. As the adults worried about the shelter, the kids recognized there was a need and wanted to see what they could do. It’s refreshing to see what was once viewed as negative story has now turned into a positive one.

But the notion that marijuana might be sold next to beer and vodka in government stores deserves sober second thought, and serious scientific work of the kind that has shown damage to developing brains from teenage marijuana use. Of course all of this urban handwringing over pot stores ignores the de facto legalization that has existed across B.C. for decades. The Nelson Star had a funny story last week about a local woman’s discovery on Google Earth. Zooming in on area mountains, one finds not only the Purcell landmark Loki Peak, but also Weed Peak, Grow Op Peak, Cannabis Peak and Hydroponic Peak. Whatever the source of this cyberprank, it could also be applied to other regions of B.C. For the record, I’ll restate my longstanding position that legalization is the only logical answer. I’ll say the same about other drugs that drive most B.C. crime, but that’s a subject for another day. Tom Fletcher is B.C. legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Studio added to booming film industry in Victoria Facility will benefit local and abroad producers Kendra Wong Victoria News

Victoria's already booming film industry is getting a boost with the opening of a new film studio in the downtown core. Finerty Film Studios launched on Bridge Street last week, offering a much-needed space for visiting and local film productions. The roughly 2,400-square-foot facility includes a lounge for casting calls, business centre, a hair,

makeup and wardrobe room, theatre screening room to screen dailies or watch the final product, and a visual FX stage with a 14-foot by 12-foot cyclorama green screen with rounded walls that allows people to edit background graphics more completely. Last year was a record-breaking year for Victoria's film industry with 24 productions coming to Victoria, which brought in an estimated $18 million to the local economy. Finerty Studio CEO Dustin Finerty and his wife Kelly, hope to capitalize on the low Canadian dollar and the recent boom in Victoria's film industry.

â€œThe industry has been picking up quite a bit and we've both been wanting to get back into it,â€? said Finerty, who graduated from what used to be the Victoria Motion Picture School. His wife Kelly did theatre productions when she was in Kamloops. They saved up enough money to buy a house, but were unable to find the perfect place, so the couple decided to invest their money in their true passion. After three months of renovations and roughly $50,000, the duo opened the space at 2616 Bridge St. According to Finerty, the space will benefit both produc-

ers locally and from abroad. â€œLocal producers or people who don't have a lot of money can get in and still do some visual effects, they can still have a space to do casting and have meetings,â€? he said. â€œAt the same time, we want to facilitate

the larger productions because they're important and the money they bring in trickles down to everybody as well.â€? Kathleen Gilbert, film commissioner with the Vancouver Island South Film and Media Commission, said the facility doesn't take

and coming producers as well to hone their craft.â€? The University of Victoria and Chek TV have green screen rooms, but Finerty said the studio is the only one on the Island to offer a cyclorama green screen. kendra.wong@vicnews.com

“In the first year, we had 45 people sign up [for the choir] and that number quickly grew to 75.” She now has a waitlist of 160 people eagerly waiting for a chance to perform on Victoria’s pop music stage. Because of the interest, Doman said she will be starting another choir with a similar vision. “There’s something in the works,” she said. “I can’t say too much for now but it won’t be a traditional choir and it will be similar to Starlight.” Doman says the biggest challenge in leading a 75-voice choir is finding the right balance. “Leadership is a major balancing act. We also have to deal with the fact that everyone has a life outside of the choir,” she said, adding that the challenges are always worth the reward when the group performs. Starlight Pops’ upcoming performance, ‘VEGAS, Baby,’ brings the sounds of the strip to Victoria’s St. Aidan’s United Church (3703 St. Aidan’s St.) on Jan. 29 and 31. “Many of our arrangements have a classic Rat Pack influence anyway but this show features the music of Vegas headliners from all eras,” Doman said. editor@vicnews.com

Speed skating duo on track Nanaimo snaps Cougars’ 23-game winning streak to B.C. Winter Games Kendra Wong Victoria News

Two local speed skaters are on the right track to one of the most prestigious competitions in the province. Twelve-year-old Colin Matthews and 13-year-old Finn Fairbairn, both with the Esquimalt Speed Skating Club, will make their first appearance at the B.C. Winter Games in Penticton in February. Matthews qualified for the U14 boys team, skating four laps in 50 seconds against other Island skaters, while Fairbairn qualified as his backup in case of injury or illness to represent Vancouver Island along with five other skaters. Matthews began speed skating five years ago. He was at a Scouts meeting when he saw a team of speed skaters in action. “The coaches are really nice, going fast is one of my things, that's one of the reasons I joined,” he said. Fairbairn laced up his first skates five years ago as well. He was in skating lessons at the Save-on-Foods Memorial Centre before he took up speed skating. “I just like to skate really fast so my parents suggested I join speed skating, so I did,” said Fairbairn. “It's just fun.” Over the last five years, the duo have been honing their skills on the ice, attending several tournaments in the Lower Mainland to gain competition experience. Despite their age, the boys show the utmost dedication to the sport, practicing

three times a week at the Archie Browning Sports Centre, including a 6 a.m. practice on Saturdays and dry land exercises. Ian Phillips, president of the Esquimalt Speed Skating Club, said the boys are easy to coach and have progressed significantly within the last year. Matthews' strength are his crisp cross overs and leaning in when taking corners, while Fairbairn's straightaways are powerful. “They really love the sport. They're always keen on learning,” said Phillips, who has coached the boys since they took up the sport. “They're progressed very well over the last year. They're getting very fast. It will be a real challenge for them to compete for medals against skaters from the mainland, but I'm sure they're going to do very well.” Fairbairn's goal for the winter games is simple — to get faster. “Just try to work on my technique and bending over more,” he said. “I'm pretty excited.” Matthews added he hopes to do his best and keep up with the other skaters. “If I get first, that's good,” Matthews said. “I want to keep doing it forever.” The B.C. Winter Games run from Feb. 25 to 28 in Penticton. Other sports include archery, badminton, biathlon, curling, diving, figure skating, ringette and skiing cross-country, judo and netball. kendra.wong@vicnews.com

The Nanaimo Buccaneers ended the Victoria Cougars’ 23-game winning streak Sunday afternoon. Trent Bell scored 30 seconds into double overtime to lift Nanaimo to a 1-0 win. In double overtime, Bell cut through the slot and fired a wrist shot past goalie Anthony Ciurro for his team leading 26th goal. Eighteen seconds earlier, Will Koop looked to have Ciurro beat. That was until the five-foot-ten Peoria, Arizona-native whipped out his glove and stole what would have been the game winner. The Cougars outshot Nanaimo 5-4 in extra time. After backstopping the Buccaneers to victory in his last start, netminder Alex Orth continued his strong play. Orth made several crucial saves from start to finish keeping Victoria at bay. The six-foot-four Abbotsford-native stopped 13 shots in the first period, another seven in the second, and 12 more in the third for his second shutout of the season. Nanaimo improves to

19-17-1-2 and moves five points ahead of the third place Comox Valley Glacier Kings in the North Island Division. Equally as good, Ciurro made 20 saves. Four minutes into the middle frame, Koop used a nifty deke but was denied by Ciurro. Back the other way, Nathan Looysen rang the puck off the near post. In the third period, Looysen had his one-timer from the slot gobbled up by Orth six minutes in. But it would be the Cougars who would get the better scoring chances. After beating Calverley one-on-one, Vandewetering just missed picking the top corner. Then on an odd man rush, Looysen used Vandewetering as a decoy before snapping the puck off the blocker of Orth. And with just under

four minutes to play in regulation, Looysen had a wide open net to shoot at but the pass from Vandewetering skipped over his stick. After four-on-four solved nothing, the two teams headed to five minutes of three-on-three. Thirty seconds in, Dom Kolbeins tried to flip a pass up to Looysen but the puck was intercepted in the neutral zone. With Koop to his left, Bell cut into the middle and buried the puck past Ciurro. After the goal, Bell was mobbed by his teammates. The Cougars drop to 33-4-1-1 and lost for the first time on home ice this season. Next game for Victoria is Thursday, Jan. 28 against the Peninsula Panthers. Game time is 7 p.m. at the Archie Browning Sports Centre. editor@vicnews.com

Vision Matters Dr. Rachel Rushforth

Healthy Eyes. Doctor Delivered.

Eyesight and safe driving When we drive, we make most of our decisions on the basis of visual cues: the position of other vehicles and pedestrians, traffic lights, signs, hazard warnings etc. Good vision is crucial to safe driving. Vision for driving involves more than the ability to read the letters on the eye chart (central vision): Peripheral vision, depth perception and colour vision are all important factors which influence our judgment while driving. The Motor Vehicle Branch tests these visual skills when we first apply for a driver’s license. This screening is not a substitute for a full eye examination by a Doctor of Optometry who can prescribe corrective lenses or other treatment, if necessary, and evaluate the health of the eyes. Our eyes change in subtle and gradual ways as we age. We may not realize our vision has gradually deteriorated to a level that does not meet the legal and safe requirements for operating a motor vehicle. In many cases, the solution may be as simple as, new prescription lenses. Glare is a common problem to most drivers when the sun is low in the sky ahead and when the road surface is wet and shiny. Sunglasses may help, along with cleaning your windshield. Another cause of glare may be cataracts, which can develop as we age. This cloudiness in the lenses of the eyes can cause an increase in sensitivity to light in the early stages. Your optometrist can advise you about tinted lenses to reduce glare and continue to counsel you www.oakbayoptometry.com as the cataracts develop. Regular eye examinationsDr. determine if your vision Neil Paterson is good enough for safe driving. You owe it Sutter to yourself Dr. Suzanne and everyone else on the road to make sure that you Optometrists are seeing well and reacting to situations 100-2067as quickly as possible. Cadboro Bay Rd.

Bill Bennett: builder, optimist, visionary

Brian Kieran This coming Sunday, the 31st, there will be a celebration of the life and times of former social credit premier Bill Bennett at the Grand Hotel in Kelowna. I will be there with hundreds of his former colleagues and friends whose lives were impacted by this one-of-a-kind premier. Bennett died last December at age 83. He had been suffer-

ing from Alzheimer's. His struggle with the terrible illness was not generally known until two years ago when family friend Charles Fipke donated more than $3 million in Bennett's name to Alzheimer’s research at the Djavad Mowafaghian Centre for Brain Health, a partnership between the UBC Faculty of Medicine and Vancouver Coastal Health. Bennett announced his retirement from politics 30 years ago during Expo 86. Many of you will remember that the years preceding Expo were harsh indeed and Bennett’s restraint program, designed to keep B.C. viable through hard economic times, earned the premier

Bennett’s legacy has stood the test of time. He is remembered as a builder and an optimist who always had an upbeat vision for British Columbia. very few friends at the time. In fact, Bennett was basically losing the 1983 provincial election until NDP leader Dave Barrett, campaigning in the West Kootenay as I recall, told reporters he would dismantle the restraint program. Apparently, voters understood that the hardships imposed on them were worth the short-term pain. Back in those days I had the greatest job in B.C., political reporter for the Vancouver Sun posted to the Legislative Press Gallery.

Covering Bennett was a challenge. He had little use for sound bites and photo ops. He was terse, rather than eloquent. Looking back I have to chuckle at Bennett’s deft ability to leave the media standing in the rain whenever he could. Caring little for another combative question about the impacts of restraint, the premier discovered that he could escape the media by sending his press secretary, Hal Lieren, out to schmooze the press gallery scrum in the driveway outside the

West Annex while Bennett made his escape through the Legislature’s labyrinth of basement corridors to join his driver at the “CNIB Stand” at the East Annex. One afternoon, when I realized what was happening, the premier and I had a foot race through the basement hallways. The only reason I caught him was because the athletic premier had a terrible cold. Back in those days my idea of exercise was a block long walk to the bar after work. So, there we

were, leaning against the concrete wall wheezing, red-faced and speechless. A great moment for politics versus the fourth estate. In a tribute to Bennett in 2011, former attorney general Brian Smith said: “Bennett’s personal qualities often were under appreciated during his time in office. He was not a natural orator and television sold him short. “As a friend and later as a cabinet colleague, I knew him to be warm and funny and ferociously loyal. He did not dump colleagues who were in trouble. He stuck by them, as his father had done before him.” Smith recalled that Bennett could also crack the whip when his ministers drifted. “When the cabinet seemed captivated by a large new spending

initiative, the premier called for a cabinet vote. Everyone voted for the scheme. Bennett said: ‘Ayes - 21 and Nays -1. I see the nays have it.’ We all laughed for a long time and the program died.” In 2007, Bennet received the Order of B.C. He was praised for leading our province through a challenging economic time and left office with the province poised for success in a modern, global economy. Bennett’s legacy has stood the test of time. He is remembered as a builder and an optimist who always had an upbeat vision for British Columbia. The family says that donations in Bennett’s memory can be made to the Alzheimer’s Society, suite 307-1664 Richter St., Kelowna, V1Y 8N3. editor@vicnews.com

Seniors help others in peer counselling program Pamela Roth Victoria News

Giving up your home to move into a care facility isn't easy — just ask Lois Dutton. As a volunteer coordinator with the Volunteer Senior Peer Counselling Program, Dutton has helped many seniors make the transition from their home to a care facility — a move she said is devastating for many. “They are not just giving up a home, they are giving up a large part of their life and their independence,” said Dutton. “We feel it's important to help them work through that and sometimes it can take a long time — many months or even years.” Through the program offered through Seniors Serving Seniors, a team of 25 senior peer counsellors provide emotional support and encouragement to those facing the loss of a loved one, grief and lifestyle transition. The service, which is free

of charge, began about 36 years ago and mainly deals with people who are suffering some type of a loss. The counsellors are also seniors and are there to listen, have visits and empathize with what their client is going through, encouraging and helping them make whatever choices they can. Some seniors only need a handful of sessions while others develop friendships with their counsellor that lasts many years. For the last three years, Dutton has also worked as a counsellor, typically helping seniors deal with a loss or isolation. During her time with the program, she's experienced a wide array of emotions, but always walks away feeling gratified. “I've had some people who were quite ill and actually are no longer with us to real happiness or gratification that you can see how they progressed...We were there to hold their hand. It's scary for people to ask for

help,” she said. “Many people either don't have families or they are far away. Some seniors aren't really clued into computers or online so that also sets up distance between people that we didn't use to have.” The Volunteer Senior Peer Counselling Program is accepting more clients, along with anyone who would like to become a volunteer.

Ask the Expert Seniors Edition

Q: I and many of my friends find the different names associated with private pay retirement communities very confusing. Can you simplfy?

A: You

are not alone. This information bears repeating as retirement communities receive inquiries daily, from clients requiring clariﬁcation/ understanding of the various options – Independent Living, Assisted Living or Complex Care. Independent Living (IL) communities are for seniors who are completely independent, managing their activities of daily living and seeking ‘hospitality services’ such as meals, laundry, cleaning, social and recreational programs, emergency response, transportation, etc. Their month to month rental suites vary in size and most are equipped with kitchenettes. Assisted Living (AL) communities offer all of the above as well as, at additional cost, personal care assistance with services such as medication monitoring/reminders, assistance with dressing, bathing, compression stockings, etc. You will ﬁnd many ‘IL’ communities offer ‘AL’ services as well. Some communities advertise as strictly ‘AL’ communities and some communities offer the full continuum lifestyle : ‘IL’ , ‘AL’ and Complex Care ‘CC’ . Complex Care (CC) communities are staffed 24/7 with RN’s or LPN’s, RCA’s and other licensed professionals, providing services such as medication administration, bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, prompting/cuing, etc. ‘CC’ communities may be either a one person assist, or, a two person assist with appropriate heavy lift equipment. They may or may not be a locked community. All clients are assessed prior to admittance. What also bears repeating regularly – be proactive and don’t wait for a crisis!
