'You have the right people
working with you'
March 26, 2004
We wanted to express our thanks for the excellent level of
treatment afforded my father, Wilfred Elliott, during his time at
Garden Terrace.
Throughout his stay up to and including his final
days, the staff treated him with dignity and caring. While we do
not know everyone's name that I had contact with, we were impressed
by all.
Two members of your staff need special mention
for their handling of my father, as well as their compassion shown
to Doreen and myself through his final hours, those being Shelly
and Bea. We truly hope that you will thank them again for us for
all they all did as it was greatly appreciated in more ways than
can be put into words.
Considering the staffing levels that the home
operates with, it amazed us the number of times more than one staff
member was with my father and we hope the new Provincial Liberal
Party lives up to their promise of making healthcare a priority.
You need more staff to handle the needs of thirty-two residents
on each floor.
When we first visited Garden Terrace at the time
of opening last year, we decided that this was the facility that
we wanted my father to stay at. We made the right decision and will
tell everyone with parents or loved ones requiring a nursing home
of the level of excellent care given to my father. You definately
have the right people working with you.
Yours sincerely
Donald E. Elliot, Doreen M Graff
