Congratulations to Thy Daigneault, Health Care Support Worker, on her retirement after 32 years of service at Menno Home! Thys’ colleagues couldn’t say enough about her kindness to the residents and her generous spirit to her team members over the years. She always had a song in her heart and a cheery disposition and she will be missed!
Blessings to Thy in her retirement!
After more than 10 years of loyal service to Menno Home we would like to wish Debbie Jamieson a happy retirement and warm farewell as Resident Care Coordinator (RCC) on East 1.

We are also pleased to announce that Alyssa Sargeant will be taking on the RCC role after Debbie’s retirement. Alyssa is already in training and very excited with this opportunity. Please warmly welcome Alyssa in her new role.

From May 2 – 5, 2022 Menno Place was audited by the BC Municipal Safety Association to determine the status of our Occupational Health and Safety Program. This is a voluntary audit that Menno Place chooses to have done each year to ensure we meet and exceed the safety standards required by WorkSafeBC.
We are very pleased that we passed with flying colors – with a final score of 94%! This is an exceptional outcome, considering the extra staffing challenges and safety requirements we have gone through this past year.
Thanks to all our team members, supervisors, Joint Occupational Health and Safety Committee members, and the entire leadership team for your dedication and commitment to Safety at Menno Place!
