Hello Everyone.
Flu season is here and we are seeing many respiratory illnesses already in our community.
Starting Monday December 9, you will be required to wear a mask in all resident care areas if you have not received your flu vaccine. Staff are asked to report whether or not they have chosen to get a flu shot.
You can click here to report getting a flu shot.
OR
Click here to report your decision to wear a mask instead of getting the shot.
If you have not reported you have had the flu vaccine we ask you do so right away.
Thank you for all your efforts in helping to keep our residents and one another safe.

Missed Giving Tuesday? You can still help brighten lives
Giving Tuesday is December 3rd, but you can keep giving through December 6th. Together we can make real and positive change for our 700 treasured residents
And the Winner Is…
Thanks to everyone who participated in the Worklife Pulse Survey! This data is vital to the Menno Place leadership as they plan for the future and continue to make Menno Place a great place to work.
As promised someone will win a $100 gift card of their choosing and the winner is: TAMMY COMPTON! Congratulations Tammy!
Also, there was an extra push toward the end of the survey to see if we could hit 300 participants. We didn’t get all the way to 300 but we did pass 250 so the leadership decided to award a second gift card for $50.
The winner of the $50 gift card is: Aaron Russell! Congratulations Aaron!
Both winners have been contacted so they can choose where they want their gift cards to come from. Choices, choices.
Thanks again to everyone who took the time to participate in the survey.
It’s Giving Tuesday!
Giving Tuesday is December 3rd, but you can keep giving through December 6th. Together we can make real and positive change for our 700 treasured residents.
