We hope these weekly updates are helpful. Thank you all for your continued support.
Easter is an annual Christian holiday that celebrates the resurrection of Jesus Christ and marks the arrival of Spring. For many, Easter is all about chocolate bunnies, dyed eggs, and bouquets of spring flowers such as daffodils and lilies, but the holiday is also one of the most important observances of the year for Christians around the world. No matter how you celebrate, we wish you a happy and safe Easter weekend from all of us at AgeCare!
Gathering with Care
As you plan your spring-time gatherings with family and friends, we wish to share our updated Gathering with Care guide.
Following these will help you to reduce the risk of spreading viruses – including COVID-19, Influenza, and Norovirus (Norwalk).
Before getting together, it is strongly recommended that Rapid Antigen Test Kits are used to test attendees – especially if they are unvaccinated. Test yourself immediately before gatherings, and if the results are positive and stay home. Learn more at alberta.ca/rapidtesting.
Quality Spotlight: Albus Laundry and Linen Services
You may have noticed that AgeCare’s towels and facecloths are especially bright and clothesline fresh! These are just some of the noticeable qualities of our sister company, Albus Laundry and Linen Services. We are also proud to say that Albus utilizes a unique laundering process called ozone laundering that is environmentally friendly while also eliminating even the most persistent pathogens – including COVID-19!
AgeCare didn’t just stumble upon this exceptional laundry service. Our founders built this company to provide better products and services for residents in our Calgary and area communities. The difference is noticeable! With no harsh chemicals – just ozone bubbles and cold water – our linens last longer, our towels are soft and fresh, Mother Nature is pleased, and residents get the royal treatment they deserve!
Visitor Guidelines
While many restrictions have been lifted outside of our community, we wish to reiterate the need for safe, responsible practices in our centres, including continuous masking and hand hygiene. Remember! Help us limit potential exposure to COVID by staying away if you are unwell.
Our recreation team works hard to create engaging activities that enrich the mind, body and spirit. We are continuously looking for ways to reduce the risk of transmission while having the least impact on our residents’ well-being.
For our NEW AgeCare communities from Revera, your Family Portal is still available to you to access your loved one’s activitypro page. You can log in with your usual username and password at online.activitypro.net/users/login/agecare.
