Welcome to the summer edition of Connections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s been a busy time in all of our communities over the past few months and I know our residents, families, and team members are looking forward to warmer weather and fun events in the coming weeks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our second annual Great People Month<\/a><\/em> took place in May. Participation this year was extraordinary with celebrations for Nursing Week and Safety Week, Caught You Being Great, Safe, and Green awards throughout the month, weekly contests and prizes, an all-hands Town Hall, and finally our annual Excellence Awards<\/a> and a draw for free groceries for a year. Congratulations to this year\u2019s grand prize winner, Chiela Maun, from Gordon Hall!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recently, I marked a personal milestone of 25 years working with Shannex. It has been my honour to serve alongside incredible colleagues and meet residents whose stories I will never forget. I now have the privilege of guiding our organization through a period of evolution as we build on a strong foundation of service and care to expand our focus toward the pursuit of lifelong wellness and creating conditions to support a long and healthy life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The time is right to make investments in healthy aging and I\u2019m proud that Shannex is leading the way with an investment of $3.5 million in research through Dalhousie University, Mount Saint Vincent University and the University of New Brunswick that will create living lab opportunities, access to data, and a true collaboration across the health sector to promote the best conditions for healthy aging. We look forward to keeping our partners updated on our progress and learnings throughout this exciting journey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope you enjoy reading more about our work in this issue, and have a wonderful summer with family and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
