A message from the Hospitality Manager:
Dear families,
With Spring finally arriving in Calgary, our outside patios, courtyards and benches are open to our residents and their families alike.
Our grounds crew will begin the arduous task of beautifying the gardens and clearing any debris left from Winter. Please be mindful when walking on the lawns for roots and any uneven areas.
You may of noticed the hedges have been removed due to a disease that was killing them. They will grow back in time, but during this process, please avoid stepping over or through the garden beds.
With the warmer weather comes access to our designated outdoor smoking area. This area is located on the west side of our front lawn. A bench and outdoor ashtray have been provided for the comfort and safety of resident’s.
Under NO circumstance are residents or family permitted to smoke outdoors in any other location. This includes the front patios, the chairs and the curb in front of the entrance.
Second hand smoke as well as the risk of fire make these areas off limits. We appreciate your cooperation and support of this by-law. Signage is posted for easy reference.
If you have any questions or concerns please contact me directly at stuart@mayfaircarecentre.com or by phone at 403.648.4212.
Happy Spring and Summer!
Stuart Williamson
Hospitality Manager

OCTOBER NEWSLETTER

A message from the Hospitality Manager:
Our dining room is undergoing a small but impactful change by replacing the table tops, with a much brighter and modern quartz product.
However, this change will make the tables heavier and more difficult to move without proper technique and equipment.
We would ask families to refrain from lifting or dragging these tables to avoid being injured or damaging them.
Staff have been informed and trained accordingly to utilize the proper equipment during those times rearrangement is necessary.
We thank you for your compliance and look forward to seeing you on your next visit.

NEW NURSE CALL SYSTEM
In February 2015, our care team finalized the installation of a state of the art Austco nurse call system. The goal of our project was to be able to consistently evaluate how long it takes for Residents to get help at the bedside or in their washrooms. We track roughly 10,000 calls per month from our Residents and can proudly demonstrate that our average response time is under one minute.
It is our hope going forward that we can sustain Resident safety and use this system to maintain accountability with our staff to show families that we are using technology to compliment the bedside manor in providing compassionate care.
