Admin Corner By Norm Quenneville Welcome to our New yet Familiar Supervisor of Resident Services! good reputation as being caring, compassionate and always having the resident at the center of any of her actions. She has also gained respect from her coworkers and especially her peers when in 2011 she stepped in as the Acting Supervisor of Resident Services and did a wonderful job. Tracey holds a Baccalaureate degree from McMaster University. For a few years now, Tracey also took an initiative to further her skills by acquiring a Leadership certificate from St. Lawrence College. Last addition of the Lodger, I wrote about the retirement of our long standing supervisor of Resident Services- the one and only Mrs. Linda Geisel. Although we all know that these are big shoes to fill, we have been successful and we are thrilled that we have been able to promote from within our organization. Well now, I am pleased to announce that another long standing employee of the Lodge has been hired as the newest member of our Leadership Team. Mrs. Tracey Delage has been employed, as a Recreologist here at the Lodge for the past 18 years. Tracey, over the years has gained a very 2 LODGER July/August 2016 As the Lodge continues to receive many accolades for the excellent work that we do, we welcome Tracey to the Team to help us raise the bar even higher in the years to come. The Leadership team is quite excited and welcomes a new member and we are looking forward to the beginning of a new journey at the Lodge. Tracey's official start date is July 4th. We anticipate that there will be a two to three week transition as we look at replacing Tracey's current position as Full Time Recreologist on our 4th floor. We thank you for your understanding and patience through this transition. Tracey, CHEERS to a new adventure.

Fr. Gatean Deschamps celebrated 60 years of priesthood this past June. He was ordained in Montreal at the Grand Seminary on June 17th, 1956. He spent the better part of his career as a priest in the province of Saskatchewan serving communities in Prince Albert, Shelbrook and Leask. He was a member of the International Board of Engaged and Marriage Encounters and spent many years as a spiritual advisor for young couples entering into the sacrament of Holy Matrimony. The last 10 years have been spent in Cornwall as pastor at Blessed Sacrament Parish and leading bible studies for adults. Congratulations Fr. Deschamps on your 60 year Anniversary of Ordination. 4 LODGER July/August 2016 Roger Brunet spent some time admiring the lilacs in the Special Care garden. With the summer months upon us, residents are looking forward to spending as much time outdoors as possible. Alisha and Carrigan are seen here planting flowers. Staff Side Please welcome the newest member of our Recreologist Team Shelby McLean! Shelby is a recent graduate of Seneca College in Toronto. She graduated with honors in her social service worker Gerontology program. Shelby has decided to further her education by going to University in the fall; she is currently weighing the pros and cons of the different universities she has been accepted to and has promised to keep us posted on what her final decision will be. Shelby loves staying active! She is playing baseball this summer, and is even taking on our very own Tim in a four on four beach volleyball league. Shelby is very excited to be working in the Resident Services and Outreach departments this summer, and we are happy to have her join our team here at the Lodge.

(613)932-0404 July/August 2016 LODGER 5 Caregiver Corner Tips for travelling with someone who has dementia We all enjoy a change of scenery and a break from routines. However, as Alzheimer's disease or other dementias progress, changes in abilities can make it difficult to get away. Careful planning will help you manage the changes in surroundings and routines. Here are some tips to make the trip easier: Have a plan Ÿ Include the person with dementia in your planning. Give her a copy of the trip itinerary for her reference. ŸIf you are planning to visit friends and family, tell them about the changes since your last visit. ŸLearn as much as you can about the place you'll be visiting, so you can anticipate what you'll need. Ÿ Think ahead about activities that may need to be adjusted. Ÿ Consider a holiday package, where everything is organized for you. ŸRegister the person with the Alzheimer Society's MedicAlert®Safely Home®. Members receive an engraved identification bracelet, which allows police and emergency responders to 6 LODGER July/August 2016 quickly identify a person who gets separated. Ÿ Carry recent photographs, details of what the person is wearing, and preferred places of interest. This will help during a search if one is necessary. ŸKeep a copy of the name and number of your hotel in a familiar spot in the person's purse or pocket, so he can ask for help if needed. Simplify ŸAim for as few changes in routine as you reasonably can. ŸTry to get a direct flight. Ÿ If you're travelling by car for a long distance, consider extending the time to get there and driving shorter distances each day. Ask for help ŸIf possible, have an additional person travel with you to help. Ÿ Make sure that your travel agent is aware of any special needs. ŸInform the airline that you are travelling with a person with dementia. You may want to request early boarding, a wheelchair, transportation upon arrival, help getting on and off the plane or with stowing carry-on baggage. ŸRequest seating near washrooms. ŸIf you are staying at a hotel, let the staff know about your needs and explain some of the possible difficulties you think you might encounter. 10.

Plus des deux-tiers de notre planète sont recouverts d'eau. De l'eau qui s'étend des couches claires et chaudes des zones ensoleillées (ou euphotiques) descendant jusqu'à 180 mètres, au noir d'encre des profondeurs sans lumière des abysses de l'océan dont les plus profondes descendent à plus de 11 km de profondeur. A ce jour, moins de 1% du volume des océans a été exploré par l’homme. Il faut dire que les scientifiques en savent beaucoup plus sur la surface de la lune que sur les profondeurs de l'océan. Presque tout ce qui grouille de vie dans les océans est concentré dans la zone euphotique (qui permet la photosynthèse), là où la lumière du soleil permet aux algues et au plancton de pousser. Actuellement, déjà, les changements des conditions de vie marine commencent à tuer les populations animales les plus fragiles. Le corail qui constitue la Grande Barrière de Corail en Australie dépend du maintien à une certaine échelle des écarts de température, or ces températures ont tendance à s'élever. Et ce récif ne constitue pas seulement l`habitat de nombreuses espèces de poissons, il est également le gagne-pain d'une population qui dépend du tourisme sur la Grande Barrière. L’homme explore ce monde dans des sousmarins en utilisant des caméras télécommandées qui sont fixées solidement à des robots subaquatiques. Les connaissances acquises nous aident à mieux comprendre l`équilibre des écosystèmes de la planète, car les océans contrôlent toute vie sur la terre. Les courants sous-marins profonds contrôlent le temps sur toute la surface de la Terre, et on pense que le changement climatique pourrait prochainement altérer ces courants, provoquant d'énormes changements dans la météorologie. Ces courants permettent également à toute forme de vie marine de subsister et en dernier ressort, toute vie sur terre dépend 8 LODGER July/August 2016 L’étendue des mers et l`importance des populations de poissons peuvent faire que l`homme les considère comme une source inépuisable de nourriture. Cependant, nous savons maintenant que les réserves de poissons sont tout aussi fragiles que celles de toutes les autres populations d'animaux sauvages, et que certains types de poissons deviennent de plus en plus rares. Le même problème se pose concernant les grands mammifères marins, baleines et dauphins. La chasse et la pollution rendent tout à fait incertaine la survie de nombreuses espèces, malgré des lois internationales interdisant de tuer de nombreux types de baleines. Les océans sont une source de mystères sans fin, mais pour continuer à en profiter, nous devons les traiter avec respect et attention puisque notre mode de vie dépend finalement de la santé des océans. par Gérard Labrecque RIONS….RIONS…..RIONS Un voleur s'introduit la nuit dans une maison.

Prends pitié des malades, réconforte ceux qui sont dans la peine, l'angoisse ou le chagrin. Secoue l'indifférence de ceux qui négligent les réalités éternelles. Bénis les jeunes et les forts afin qu'ils te consacrent leurs efforts. Encourage les vieux et les infirmes de ta paix. Bénis les liens familiaux; que nous soyons les uns pour les autres une aide et non un obstacle à te servir. Nous te le demandons par Jésus-Christ notre Seigneur. Amen. Pastoral Page Summer is in full bloom here at the Lodge. Our adopt a planter program is another great success as all planters have been adopted. Families that have adopted the planters are: the Hill family, the Pelletier family, the Rowe family, the Kyte/Gibson family and the Marleau family. Recreologist, Alisha Arbuthnot, along with some of the 3rd floor residents, have also adopted two of the planters. These planters are a wonderful addition to our main entrance doors as well as our front patio area. They add wonderful pops and splashes of colour. Each one is unique and special.

James Dent July/August 2016 LODGER 17 Features Life Before the Lodge the hay mow to organize the giant fork that Greta Dillabough (Carruthers) Every year when we welcome our birthday, we reminisce about the past year and past birthdays. Our fourth floor resident, Greta Dillabough, has 102 birthdays to reminisce about. Greta was born on December 26, 1914 in the town of Crysler. Her Dad was a farmer with pigs, cows, chickens, a dog and cats in the barn. She had a brother, Wallace, and a sister, Beulah. The whole family would get up at 5 a.m. to hand milk their Jersey and Holstein cows. After breakfast Dad would take their milk to Crysler and bring his children to school which was a 2.5 mile wagon ride. The New York Central Railway travelled through Crysler – its route was New York to Ottawa. The train was called the “milk run” because it stopped in the small villages along its track to pick up milk. Like many villages Crysler had a cheese factory where farmers also brought their milk. Greta didn’t help with the ploughing but she did drive the horse and wagon with the hay loader behind it. Wallace would be in 18 LODGER July/August 2016 was attached to a top rail in the barn. Their horse would move the pulley so the loose hay was fork lifted up to the mow. Greta preferred her job because it was so hot in the mow. The Carruthers had three horses – one for their buggy and two for heavy farm work. Greta studied to Form 3 in the Finch High School. She would stay in Finch for the week with an older couple and travel home on weekends. Today it is only a 9 minute car ride on a paved road (quite different in Greta's days). After she left high school, she helped the family at home. During this time Greta would cook on the wood stove, feed the chickens and collect their eggs, wash the family clothes on Monday with the wash tub and hand ringer. Her Mom made their soap from lye. Greta experienced killing chickens for their meals, too. Due to no indoor plumbing they used an outhouse and a water pump for all their needs. Also, with no electricity they used kerosene lamps after dark. Greta said the Aladdin lamp gave the best light. Mr. Carruthers would cut ice from the Nation river in the winter for their ice house. They would cover the ice with sawdust to slow down the melting process. This was years before ice boxes or electric refrigerators. By Stephanie Hill-Nicholls Their vegetable garden had everything in it for the family to eat or store in the cellar for the winter. They made preserves of strawberries, raspberries, peaches and applesauce. Her Mom made a delicious apple jelly. Greta remembers beautiful, big peonies around their home with iris and pink Canterbury bells in other flower beds. Her Dad purchased a manual transmission Ford car that sat four people. The car was quite sporty with a canvas top that folded back. They only drove it to church or to visit family. Crysler had the amenities the family enjoyed; their church, school, two General Stores (Benoit’s and Lavigne’s), a lumber mill, post office and bank. Mrs. Carruthers made some clothes for the family and they bought some at the General Store. Greta was a real farm girl who loved country life in the Crysler area. In 1933, Greta's life changed when she met Reynald Dillabough. It was love at first sight. They were married at the Finch manse with Isabel MacLeod and Mac Gordon standing up for them. This was the depression so there weren't many jobs around. Reyn and Greta stayed on his Dad's farm to help out for a year. The newlyweds decided they wanted a change in their lives. They moved to Ottawa and lived in an apartment while Reyn studied to be a barber. What a shock for this country couple to live in a city. Their next move would be to Avonmore where they bought a house where they could live in the back and Reyn could have his barber shop in the front. They liked Avonmore with its paved street, sidewalks, stores (3), dentist, undertaker, garages (3), bank, post office, churches and school. Their children, Marlene and Daryll, were born and grew up in Avonmore. Something exciting for Greta at this time was for her to work at the post office for ten years. She had passed her driving license when she was sixteen years old. She enjoyed driving to Cornwall for special shopping. After Reyn started to experience heart issues they moved to Cornwall to an apartment. He passed away in 1980. Greta and Reyn had enjoyed taking their family on vacations to Daytona Beach, Maine and York Beach. I asked Greta her secret to longevity and she couldn’t really say. Her Mom had died at age 96 while a resident at the first Glen Stor Dun Lodge and her Dad died at age 87 in the Winchester Hospital. Greta wasn't a person who liked exercise but she enjoyed bowling. Greta is proud to share her photos of her family of Five Generations and to say how good they are to visit and keep in touch. She's a bit discouraged by her loss of independence lately since she fell and has to depend on her wheelchair. We at the Lodge are so glad Greta is still with us to share her wonderful memories, beautiful twinkly eyes and smile. July/August 2016 LODGER 19 Health by Rachelle Binette Summer Safety 101! Summer is a busy time of year here at the Lodge as so many of our residents and families love taking advantage of the heat after a long winter. Aside from providing warmth, the sun has some health benefits, such as helping the body produce vitamin D and treating certain skin conditions. However, because older adults and individuals with physical and cognitive impairments have a greater health risks related to sun and heat exposure, it is important to take certain precautions in the summer months. The Government of Canada recently updated its recommendations regarding sun and heat exposure to reflect changes in the Canadian environment. Due to the increasing strength of the sun (measured using the UV index), these guidelines highlight the use of light clothing and higher SPF sunscreens (SPF 30 as a minimum) as means for protection. Five major recommendations are indicated as essential to avoiding sun- and heatrelated issues (heat stroke, heat exhaustion, sunburns): (1) Prepare for the heat by checking the weather forecast and knowing how you can stay cool and protected. When the UV index is expected to reach 3 or greater, it is important to take extra precautions and reduce time spent in the sun between 11am and 4pm. (2) Pay close attention how you (and 20 LODGER July/August 2016 those around you) are feeling. Check for signs of heat illness (dizziness, nausea, headache, rapid heart rate). If any of these symptoms occur, move to a cool place and drink some water. Seek immediate medical attention if body temperature continues to rise, the person stops sweating, or they become unconscious (heat stroke). (3) Stay hydrated. Make sure you drink lots of cool fluids throughout the day to avoid dehydration. Older adults and people on certain medications are especially at risk for dehydration, so make sure they have lots of water on hot days. Remember: thirst is not a good indicator of dehydration. (4) Stay cool. Wear loose-fitting, light coloured clothing and keep physical exertion to a minimum during very hot days. If your home is very hot, take cool baths/showers, use a fan, or spend time in an air-conditioned public facility. (5) Avoid exposure. The best way to prevent heat and sun-related illnesses is to avoid exposure to extreme conditions. Protect yourself from the sun by applying sunscreen with an SPF rating of 30 or higher throughout the day, wearing a wide-brimmed hat, and using UVA and UVB blocking sunglasses.

We hope you spend many hours enjoying your flower and vegetable gardens as well as walks and bike rides along the waterfront. After almost 28 years of voluntary service at the Glen Stor Dun Lodge, we say goodbye to a good friend, Bill van Ryswsk. His last official day was May 30th, 2016. Bill has dedicated many hours to enhancing the lives of our residents. He has led countless current events programs ensuring that residents stay informed on issues pertaining to local, national and international news. Another of Bill's contributions was his monthly submission to the Lodger. He provided all of the word puzzles and word searches that have been filling page 28 of the Lodger. Pictured is 4th floor resident Jean Pilon enjoying a game of cribbage with volunteer, Diane. They get together once a week to play cards. On top of these regular contributions, Bill has been known to “pop in” to visit our residents. When out for a stroll, along the bike path, Bill would take it upon himself to spend some one to one time with some of our residents. Thank you to Tom Aitkens for planting the fourth floor garden. Cucumbers, tomatoes and peppers will be enjoyed soon!

Taste & Tell Nursing Departments will be hosting three summer BBQ's. All of the BBQ's will be held outside, either on the front patio or the special care garden. Summer is synonymous with grilling for many Canadian families, and why not? When the weather is warm, we spend more time outdoors and try to stay out of the hot kitchen. It stays light longer, and the evenings tend to seem a little less jampacked with activities than usual. These are all great reasons to look to the barbecue for dinner inspiration. According to Hearth, Patio and Barbecue Association's 2013 survey data (the most recent year this data was collected), ŸThe most popular foods for cooking on the grill are, in order: burgers (85 percent), steak (80 percent), hot dogs (79 percent) and chicken (73 percent). ŸThe side dishes most commonly prepared on the grill are, in order, corn (41 percent), potatoes (41 percent), and other vegetables (32 percent).· ŸThe most popular flavors of barbecue sauce are hickory, followed by mesquite, honey, and then spicy-hot.

His collective work this entire year has really been unmatched as he has been a model of consistency. Five more sandbag scores over the 1000 point mark in June had him capturing sandbagger of the month honors yet again. Harvey's top tally of 1370 points was tops among all floors as he continues his torrid pace. We look forward to seeing if he can carry this impressive momentum into the summer months. Way to go Harvey! Despite Harvey's recent surge, there were many other residents that made some noise in June, here is how things looked: Reg Lalonde was 10 points away from sharing top honors with Harvey as his 1360 placed him firmly in the second spot. Others included Jeana Reilly 1290, Roger Varin 1240, Yvonne Paradis 1210, Robert Robertson 1200, Gordon Casselman 1160, Fleurette Beauregard 1150, Joyce Ruest 1120, Grace Hickey 1070, Jeanine Marleau 1070, Jan Fournier 1060, Brian Gignac 1045, Agathe Jolicoeur 1040, Alvine Fishwick 1030 and Hattie Armstrong with 1020. As you can see there was no shortage of high scores. Great stuff guys! Scoreboard Triple Bull performance in darts June was the month of the triple bullesye as three shooters m a n a g e d t o accomplish the feat together. The triple bullseye three way tie was made up of Robert Robertson, Hattie Armstrong and Betty Dionne. All of which are no strangers to being in the red zone. This was an excellent month for the bullseye in general as a whopping 19 were spread out over 10 different shooters. This number is more than double from what we are used to seeing over a month's span. There must be something in the water because even the high scores were both above average and abundant. Jeana Reilly posted a monster score of 109 points to lead all shooters. This one was a personal best for Jeana as she continues to improve week in and week out. Other scores to be recognized included Betty Dionne 98, 72, Betty Greico 84, 78, Grace Hickey 71 and June McCrimmon with a 68. The darts program has become a tradition for many on Friday afternoons and it's always a good time. Come on out and join the action, you won't be disappointed. All residents and family members are welcome. We'll see you there folks! "My favourite part of the game is the opportunity to play."
