Home Nursing

My husband & I enjoyed a lovely weekend visiting my mother who now resides at Kelso. She jokingly calls it 'the villanous villa', but it is exactly the opposite, the loving, upbeat, well-appointed residence for many dear senior citizens who need assistance with the tasks of daily living. The spirit of hospitality & good cheer is evident the minute one walks in the door of the big foyer. We saw our mother being attended to at meals, at getting up time, at finding places that she had "forgotten", by a large group of well-trained, kind & cheerful people who know all the residents by name. I am very grateful to have found a place like Kelso for my mother to call "home" in these last few years. I can only wish Betty Hamilton & her colleagues & the residents & their relatives every continued blessing. Elizabeth & John Sherk, Toronto

I was locked in my house for two days by snow up against both front and rear doors. I attempted to get help but I did not know who to contact. I remembered my experience with CCAC after I returned from London University Hospital in 2011. I checked the web site and found an email address. I received an answer from a woman in London who worked in Client Services. She could not help me but gave me suggestions about who I might contact. In my email I included my address and phone number. About an hour or so later, I received a phone call. It was from someone outside my house on a cell phone. This woman from London has a daughter who lives in Owen Sound. She was calling me to make sure that she had the right house. She was with her little girl and they were sent here by the lady in London to shovel me out. That lady's name is Jane Easun. She is an angel and should not go unrecognized for her kindness. God Bless Her. Carol-Ann Lamothe
