UPDATED: Parking Lot Expansion June 19-24, 2025

/in , , ,

We are in the process of expanding our parking lot to accommodate additional vehicles. As part of this project, the area on Brundige highlighted in yellow on the map below will need to remain accessible for the Tree Removal services contractor to facilitate the necessary work. Do not park in the spots in the affected area.

Date: June 19 – 24th, 2025
Time: 8am- 5pm Daily

Please ensure that this space is kept clear to support a smooth and efficient process. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to the maintenance team.

Staff Are Invited to Sitewide Memorial

/in , , ,

Each June the Menno Place family gathers to honour the residents who have passed in the previous year. It’s a special time for families, friends, and staff to come together with a memorial service. Staff are invited to join or drop in to this event. (Please coordinate with your manager to ensure staff proper staffing coverage during the event.)

This year’s memorial will take place:

Friday, June 13, 2025
at 1:00pm
in the Menno Hospital chapel.

The service will start at 1:00 and runs for one hour. It includes music, readings, prayer and a presentation that honours each resident who passed in the last year, organized by the community where they lived. The service will be livestreamed and also available to view online after the event has ended. The butterfly release follows directly after the service in the Menno Home Courtyard.

New Policy Platform Launch – Coming Soon!

/in , , ,

We’re happy to let you know that we are starting to use Policy Professional on Surge Learning to store and manage all our Menno Place policies and process documents.

This change will help make our policies:

✅ Easier to find
✅ Easier to follow
✅ Always up to date

We are starting the groundwork now to move all policy documents from SharePoint to Surge Learning. The official go-live date will be shared soon.

🖥️ What’s Changing?

🔹 Policies will move from SharePoint to Surge Learning’s Policy Professional (PP) Module
🔹 Each policy section will have a Superuser (Manager or Executive) who keeps it updated
🔹 Until training is done, policies will still be available on both SharePoint and Surge Learning

We will post step-by-step instructions on how to find and use Policy Professional on Surge Learning on the staff website and units soon.

🔜 More info coming soon! Stay tuned for the launch date.
