What’s New

We are looking for Nurses to support our team in providing the best person centered care to our valuable residents.

We are pleased to share a project update about the LTC Digital Transformation (also known as the interRAI Project). The goal of this project is to implement an assessment that will identify a resident’s needs and can be used to develop more effective care plans and interventions leading to improved resident care and health outcomes.

The past year has certainly thrown us a few curves; COVID made its presence felt, we braved several storms and staffing was a challenge. Yet, our quality indicators are all very positive and I feel the root of our success lies in our everyday commitment in role modelling our core values!

This is the 25th year that our “Lights of Love” Christmas tree will be lit to honour individuals in whose name donations have been made. Those honoured do not have to be residents of the R.K.

Staff from the RK MacDonald recently attended the Nova Scotia LTC Facility Information Event.

The RK MacDonald was please to host Byron Donovan, Occupational Health and Safety Consultant, to lead staff in several education sessions.

In an effort to support staff and residents to pay tribute to the deceased resident, the Honour Guard begin when the quilt is laid upon the deceased resident as they leave. The Honour Guard is a meaningful way to pay our respects and to say good bye.
