EN_REB - Entre Nous (5)

The Therapeutic Support Services (TSS) team is
getting ready for another exciting season of Cycling
Without Age to be launched August 3. Contact Kim
at 613-562-6262, ext. 2568, or write to her at
KDurstMackenzie@bruyere.org to learn how
residents can sign up for a ride or how to volunteer
as a cycle-rickshaw pilot. Building on last year’s
huge success, the TSS team and the Bruyère CLRI
developed a colourful and practical guide that other
residences can use to set up this program.

With the help of a
designer, the family
council and the facilities
management team, we
are working on revamping
the lounges at the
residence. Artwork and
pillows were donated to
embellish the common
space and make it
welcoming and peaceful
(pictured left).
Bruyère Continuing Care celebrated National Nursing
Week (May 8–14) by inviting all employees, physicians
and volunteers to participate in a video contest.
Anyone could vote for the best video by ‘liking it’ on
Bruyère’s Facebook page. Go check out the excellent
entries!
Bruyère’s nurses are superb examples of what it
means to be both professional and compassionate.
They demonstrate excellence in so many ways
including in clinical practice, leadership, education,
research and innovation.
