What’s Happening Today at Salem Home
What we are doing
Each day brings something new for residents to participate and engage in!
Of Course, We’re Social!
It’s sure starting to ✨feel✨ like summer!
Our summer kick off week started with a touch sensory program and guessing what we felt. There were bubbles, sand, grass, and some other fun surprises!
We also had an intense game of balloon volleyball with some grade 6 students from Emerado!
Keep swiping to see how beachy our staff got! 🏝️
See you tomorrow for tourist Tuesday! 🗺️ ✈️

Fridays are fun because Joel Klassen, MTA comes to visit for both individual resident and small groups for music therapy. 🎶🥁
Music therapists use music to connect and build relationships with residents. Music therapy supports cognitive, emotional, spiritual, communicative, physical and social needs. We clap, play instruments, tap our fingers and toes, sing along or sometimes make up something all our own. If you love music, bringing joy, and helping people feel whole again consider becoming a music therapist like Joel!

🚗We are looking for entries for a car show! 🚗
Our residents appreciate everything GVC students do for them! There are many classes who come to visit, play games, and spread sunshine within Salem. As a thank you, we are accepting free will donations for registration, as well as selling slushies at the car show, where all proceeds will be donated to GVC as a contribution to the front yard community green space renovation.

What an incredible day of community support. This morning Alana Thiessen accepted a grant from the @gvcyip @gvc.zodiacs for the creation of a Volunteer Resource Library, @accesscreditunion brought the beautiful Bill the St. Bernard to visit the residents, a few residents went out for ice cream and lilacs, and we had overwhelming support for the Foundation BBQ this evening. Thank you to our amazing community and your continued support. #createcommunity #buildcommunity #salemfoundation
As part of #pifmay, the residents, staff and families wanted to give back to our community. At the beginning of May, we hosted “The Bookman” at Salem and we received a percentage back from each sale. It was decided that with the money raised, we would purchase wishlist items for a few local organizations. Over the past few months, a resident had been busy making slippers and scarves that we added to the packages too. Thank you for all you do @pvhsociety @genesishousesouth @katie.cares #createcommunity #buildcommunity #salemstaff
