There’s nothing quite like the joy of a furry friend 🐾

This week, we were so happy to welcome Therapy Paws Canada into Long-Term Care for some very special visits. The smiles said it all as residents enjoyed cuddles, gentle pats, and heartwarming moments with these incredible therapy dogs.

Animals have a beautiful way of sparking memories, encouraging conversation, and bringing comfort. For many, it’s a reminder of beloved pets from years past. For others, it’s simply the magic of sharing space with a loving companion.

These visits create meaningful connections, reduce stress, and fill our home with laughter and joy. We are so grateful for the paws, the volunteers, and the special moments they bring to our residents. 💛🐶

The Egerton neighborhood has been feeling extra crafty and creative lately! 🎨✂️

Residents have been working side by side, sharing supplies, ideas, and plenty of laughs along the way. What starts as a simple project quickly turns into meaningful moments helping one another, offering encouragement, and celebrating each other’s creations.

It’s always beautiful to see friendships grow through creativity. There’s something special about gathering around a table, creating with your hands, and leaving not just with a finished piece but with shared memories too.

At the Village of Riverside Glen, we have been celebrating Black History Month with meaningful moments of learning, connection, and joy.

Residents, team members, and families came together to share their cultures, traditions, and stories. From delicious homemade dishes to powerful music that filled the room, each experience gave us the opportunity to learn from one another and celebrate the rich history, resilience, and contributions of Black communities.

There was dancing, storytelling, laughter, and heartfelt conversations as we explored history and honoured the legacy of so many who have shaped our world. It was beautiful to see generations connecting, asking questions, and embracing new traditions together.

Black History Month reminds us that learning and celebrating diversity is something we can carry with us all year long. Thank you to everyone who shared their culture, food, music, and time with our community.

We were proud to welcome paramedic students through our ongoing partnership with Conestoga College

This program began three years ago after recognizing that over 80% of 911 calls involve LTC and RH residents. The goal is to help students build comfort in long-term care settings, learn person-centered approaches, and understand how to collaborate with our team to best support residents.

In our home, care is built on relationships. Students learn that supporting a resident means working together — not taking over — and leaning on the trusted connections our team has built.

We’re grateful to support the next generation of compassionate, well-rounded paramedics.

Love was truly in the air at Village of Riverside Glen as residents gathered to celebrate Valentine’s Day with a special Sweetheart Lunch. The cafe was filled with smiles, laughter, and heartfelt conversations as residents enjoyed a wonderful meal together.

The day was a beautiful reminder that Valentine’s Day is about more than romance it is about friendship, companionship, support, and the meaningful connections that make our community so special. Residents shared stories, enjoyed each other’s company, and celebrated the many forms of love that surround them each day.

What an incredible day at the Schlegel Olympics! 🏅❄️

Our Riverside Glen residents truly gave it their all. Showing determination, heart, and an amazing competitive spirit in every event. From the first race to the final jump, they pushed themselves, supported one another, and represented our community with pride.

The cheering never stopped! Not only were they each other’s biggest fans, but they also lifted up competitors from the other villages, proving that sportsmanship and camaraderie are just as important as competition. The energy, encouragement, and joy were felt everywhere.

We are so proud to celebrate some exciting achievements:
🥈 Judy Stark brought home a Silver Medal in Curling!
🥉 Elizabeth Hurlbet soared to a Bronze Medal in Ski Jump!

Congratulations to our medalists and to every single participant who competed with heart and came home as champions in spirit. Riverside Glen, you’ve made us so proud! 💙

Riverside Glen is bringing the energy to University Gates for the Schlegel Olympics! 🏅❄️

Our incredible residents are hitting the slopes and the rink with heart, humor, and serious team spirit. From snowboarding thrills and ski jump chills to the endurance of the triathlon, the precision of figure skating, and the fast-paced action of hockey and curling they’re showing us all what it means to be joyful competitors and true team players.

It’s not just about the medals it’s about the laughter, the camaraderie, and the pride of cheering each other on every step (and glide!) of the way. 💙

Go Riverside Glen! Your energy, sportsmanship, and unstoppable spirit make us all proud.
