Since its inception in 2006 by the Family and Community Advisory Council, the program has fulfilled almost 60 dreams, which have included a having manicure/pedicure, enjoying a game dinner, attending a golf tournament, spending time by a lake in the country, going to the theatre and a host of other wishes.
The program is volunteer run and has no administration fees. It enjoys the amazing support of families, staff and the community who have donated their time, energy and financial support.
The goals of Second Wind Dreams are to:
- Make the life of residents a little brighter
- Enable family, friends and staff the opportunity to spread joy
- Express to the broader community that continuing care residents are a vital part of society—with dreams to live and stories to share.
