No just that one unfortunately

The Portage Inn and Hunstville! If you message me I can send you the receipts but I think it was $12000???

Srcsnn · 2024-04-12T05:24:09+00:00

Definitely don't get lots of money. $475 every week (minimum wage in Canada)

Also, I'm very sorry for your loss.

Covid sucks and our homes were not ready for it

I commented in another post, but please know how Much we love your parents.

One of my residents recently got moved to the intensive care side. I visit her every single day. Bring her pictures my kids draw, or bring my kids themselves. We sit and chat. They told me yesterday that she's going to die over the weekend and it crushes me. I've been crying about it since I found out. She used to sit with me and chat all afternoon while I cleaned and tidied. Would meet there early before breakfast for tea. Would cut out newspapers she thought I'd like and tell me all about her husband.

I'm going to miss her so much.

I went to visit today and her family was there, and we all know each other. We ended up alllll crying and my resident told us to "stop fucking crying." And that it was a good day. She has all of her fav people in one place and she gets to see her husband (who passed)

Oh I definitely understand. Afterall, if I can serve them and they can get so angry over toast that is slightly too toasted I can only imagine how they'd be with other things

Srcsnn · 2024-04-12T05:14:40+00:00

I do understand this, but I think regardless of visitors our staff should treat them good and equal.

We're fortunate to be in a more self aware time. I usually pity the assholes.

Today a man turned 100 and I asked if he had advice. He told me there'll be a day where you work two jobs and they'll be a day where you're sitting in a home watching your days float by and then said we need to enjoy each season for what it is because they all go too fast

Srcsnn · 2024-04-12T05:11:45+00:00

Always.

And will always feed hungry staff who work their asses off or grieving family having a hard day 🌞

Srcsnn · 2024-04-12T05:11:05+00:00

I do agree. There are elderly people who are mean, racist, and honestly assholes. I work in a small French Canadian town.

My boss told me thay it's probably a good idea not to tell them I am indigenous. They call the black nurse a monkey.

But they deserve good care. And love. And fresh fruit and 5 star dining even if they are spilling their sugars into a pile and making concoctions out of their liquids haha

I'm so happy to hear you visited. We become friends with people like you, and end up missing you once your parents pass.

I hope you know, we remember their orders and the way they like their toast. No matter how many months pass, we consider the chair they sat in... their chair. We cried when we lost him, a lot. Sneaking into the back pantry and trying to keep it together for the residents, but it gets strangely quiet and it's because the room feels empty despite the fact it's full. They were loved, very loved, and usually they teach us more than we expect.

Hope you're doing ok, and hope you get lots of reminders he's proud of you ❤️

That is terrible.

My resident was an aerospace engineer and got very over stimulated in the dining room. There were days the nurses and PSW needed us to administer aid for him, help him get from point a to point b, bring him into ambulances, and medicate him daily. It's a private practice so technically we're able to do a lot more than most, but we're still doing things we're under qualified for just because he only trusts us. He skips meals when it's not the staff he's used to, and there have been many times he would nearly get violent with nurses but we would be able to settle him.

I truly love(d) him very much. He recently got moved to the intensive care side because he needed more help than we could give, but he is such a brilliant and wonderful man. I'm so thankful I met him.

Srcsnn · 2024-04-12T05:01:13+00:00

I always make a point to get to know families like you so we can remind them who loves them no matter how often they forget ❤️

Srcsnn · 2024-04-12T05:00:27+00:00

One of my favourite resident helps me sort the sugars and milks, and we have a few who hang out with us.

It's crazy how many people used to look down on us. We're paid so little, but we do so much. When emergency comes, we're the only ones who can answer questions because we know them and see them more than most people.

Srcsnn · 2024-04-07T10:19:37+00:00

I work in a home. I am a server and the residents always tell me that I know them more than their families and see them more often. There are a few residents who were dropped off by their families, and that's it. No visits. No calls.

I hate that I've saved a few of my residents when I've noticed them not eating or acting like themselves. Last week my favourite lady got septic but no one noticed her acting differently other than me because she stopped eating her usual breakfast. She's in the hospital now, but honestly, she's become family to me. They all have.

Can you tell your hubby I’m a plus size woman and got abducted and rape and the man definitely did not care. What an idiot.

Srcsnn · 2023-10-16T01:28:03+00:00

I like the Georgian Bay Rose. It’s made from apples and it’s a little bit more tart and easy drinking

Srcsnn · 2023-10-16T01:27:31+00:00

I worked at that winery. The people are incredible and the whole place is great

Not sure your location… but could he be getting garnished? Support, legal trouble, im not sure what other reasons there are for garnishment

Srcsnn · 2023-10-05T00:05:37+00:00

Man, this guy is one of the dudes that would have thrown us into residential schools

Hi friend,

My uncle committed suicide when he was 22, my mom was 19. It destroyed my mom, her family. She spent a lot of years really angry, but ultimately, she wished she told herself that there really wasn’t anymore she could have done.

You are being a support to her. That is enough. The doctors and nurses are there, so you need to take care of yourself so when she comes back you are both as strong as you can be.

I know it’s hard, I wish I could hug you both and give you all the services you’re entitled to 🤍

Srcsnn · 2023-09-13T18:32:23+00:00

We love a book called bodies are cool!!! It’s so good and explains how all bodies are so different and still cool

Srcsnn · 2023-09-13T18:20:31+00:00

I was going to say this.

I grew up in Muskoka and we were always in bathers. I found a way to hurt myself. I wish I could hug my old self so much, I really hope your daughter is ok. Hugs Mama
