NOTICE TO RESIDENTS & FAMILY MEMBERS RE: OUTSIDE MEDICAL APPOINTMENTS FOR RESIDENTS

From time to time the Resident may be asked to attend a medical appointment outside of the facility. In most cases the

Resident will need a family member to accompany them. If a family member is not

available then an agency escort will be booked. The full cost of the escort will be charged to the

Resident. Transportation (Community Support Services van, taxi, family vehicle) can be

scheduled depending on the medical status of the Resident. All costs associated with this

transportation will be the responsibility of the Resident.

Ever Wonder …?

! Why money will buy a fine dog but only kindness

will make him wag his tail? Why at class reunions you feel younger

than everyone else looks? Why at some point after middle age,

“Happy Hour” becomes a nap?

The Babbling Brook – by Walt Tucker

Life seems like a babbling brook

Following the river bed With its pitfalls of stones and watery streams

As it silently and calmly whisks by Sometimes nurturing

Sometimes destructive But mostly secretive

Taking a path to the unknown
