“ From the Complimentary Therapies and Dementia project
research report” Reiki has had many successful results as
they relate to dementia and palliative care. This is not an
alternative treatment but a complementary one that helps
facilitate the healing process or alleviating the bodies
stress as it relates to the disease process.

| WHEELS IN MOTION |

June 13th was declared a celebration for “Wheels in Motion” at Ambleside Park.
Residents at Inglewood were invited to participate in the fundraiser event and
help raise awareness for the need to help the disabled access the community’s
parks and recreation facilities. The hope was it would be a family affair, with
family assisting
residents by pushing wheelchairs on the walk.
Alison Martin, from the Lower Terrace, states “ I was fortune my son and his
wife both came along with me and were also able to travel in the bus with the
other wheel chair occupants.” In all, three residents and their families joined
with Jan, our physiotherapist and Donna, our recreation therapist, at Ambleside
Park to participate. After registering at the booth, they donned their caps and
set off along the seawall.
The group arranged to meet back at the starting point, where they gathered at a
picnic table under a shade tree. A picnic lunch, kindly provided by the
Inglewood kitchen staff was consumed with zest.
At the end of a very successful but challenging day, the team returned to
Inglewood in good spirits. As Alison muses “ one good thing that day – it didn’t
rain as we had feared it might”

…..Share the Garden |
|
We need your help. Not only are you welcome to
walk amongst and enjoy the garden but please feel free to help out by doing the
odd job that needs doing; e.g. pulling weeks or deadheading spent flowers. There
are tools, gardening gloves, etc. in our new garden shed for everyone to use.

Advisory Board Alert |
| The Family/Community Advisory Board requests
your help!
On the morning of August 6th the first rotation of new care aides will be
taking over from the present staff. Since we don’t know as yet how many or the
original staff will be returning –we need family embers to help make this
transition as stress-free as possible for our families.
You can help by joining our family support team who will (in pairs) take 1-2
hour visits at each shift change (3 in all). “Simply be there” -to help if
needed –to support if needed –to welcome new faces .
We would like to do this for at least the first week on new staff arrival :
August 6-13th –in each area of the facility –Lodge, Manor and Terraces….just to
get the new staff off on the right foot and to introduce yourselves to the
newest members of the Inglewood Family.
If you have loved ones in any of these locations, PLEASE CALL ME—and let us get
together to make this major change over a good one!
For more information, call Alice Hutchison Cell # 604.306.7230 or at home at
604.926.3671
I thank you in advance for all those residents that have no one to speak on
their behalf.
