President Eric presents three tablets to Jeannette Beauregard, Linhaven Program Manager.
Seven Rotary Clubs in Niagara (The Rotary Clubs of St. Catharines Lakeshore, St. Catharines, Niagara Falls Sunrise, Fonthill, Lincoln, Grimsby, and Welland) joined forces to supply Samsung Tablets to each of the Long-Term Care Homes managed by the Regional Municipality of Niagara.
As we are all too aware, the residents of these term care facilities are in "lock-down", unable to see or speak to their loved ones outside of the home other than waving at a window. COVID-19 has imprisoned the senior generation of families, especially at a time when they need their family’s words, smiles and love.
Our Lakeshore Club sponsored two 10 inch Samsung tablets for the two separate units at Linhaven (St. Catharines) - perfect for residents to share, contact and talk with their families and friends.. Other tablets were supplied to The T. Roy Adams Regional Centre for Dementia Care (St. Catharines), Deer Park Villa (Grimsby), Upper Canada Lodge (Niagara‐on‐the‐Lake), The Meadows of Dorchester (Niagara Falls), The Woodlands of Sunset (Welland), D.H. Rapelje Lodge (Welland) and Northland Pointe (Port Colborne).
