Re:  Fraser Health Resident Satisfaction Survey – Menno Hospital

Dear Residents and Families of Menno Hospital,

At Menno Place, the comfort, care and connection of our residents are top priorities. In support of this work, beginning this month, we will be partnering with Fraser Health on a resident satisfaction survey for our residents in Menno Hospital.

This short survey will be made available to both residents and families and will cover a variety of program areas. Feedback received will help inform future updates or changes to services to improve residents’ experiences in our care community.

A Fraser health staff member will be on site administering surveys on June 16th from 9am- 5 pm. You are invited to attend and participate on behalf of your family member.

You may also help your family member to complete the survey using this link by the scheduled survey date, at a time that works for you.

The survey link is also available on posters with QR codes located throughout our care community. The survey will be closed after the scheduled survey date.

If you have any questions, please let us know.

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Smitha Varghese,
Director of Care

MEMO: Sweeping and Washing of Parkade

/in ,

We have a company contracted to come and sweep and wash both of our underground parkades.

Terrace East/West: Tuesday, May 26th, from approximately 8:00am – Noon.
Primrose Gardens: Wednesday, May 27th, from approximately 8:00am – Noon

Please arrange to have your car out of the parkade during this time.

It is permissible to park on the outside parking lot during this time – you do NOT need to pay for parking during this time.

If possible, residents with a scooter should move their scooter AND their charger. At bare minimum, chargers should not be left on the ground where they will get wet during the cleaning process.

As a reminder, no items are to be stored in your parking stall besides your vehicle. If you have any items in your parking stall, please clean them up promptly.

Additionally, no Menno Place Staff are authorized to assist you in moving your vehicle. If you need help, please contact your family/friend to assist.

Thank you for your cooperation

2026 Strategic Framework Open House

/in , , , ,

On May 15th, we had the opportunity to come together as a community to reflect on our journey and work over the past year and look ahead to what we are doing in the near future.

The open house was marked by an update in four specific areas – our strategic priorities – Christian Values, Home of Choice, Service Excellence, and People and Culture.

We were pleased to have 50 of our staff complete the event passport which shows that they received the update at each of the booths. These staff were entered in a draw to win an Amazon gift card. Congratulations to the winner – Milet from our Housekeeping and Laundry team!

We had many external stakeholders join us including community partners and a member of our Board and we thank them for coming. It was an encouraging time to see a strong representation across our organization, and throughout the Abbotsford community.

Thank you to everyone who attended, contributed, and helped bring this event to life.

Happy Mother’s day from all of us at Menno Place!

There are so many women who can act as mother figures in our lives – from our actual mothers, to step-moms, grandmothers, great grandmothers, god-mothers, aunties, close friends, friends’ mothers, mothers-in-law, neighbours, sister-in-laws and many, many more!

Today we celebrate all the women who have made positive impacts on our lives through the love and support they give.

Whether you are spending time with loved ones or reflecting on the memories of those who are no longer with us, we hope that you have a blissful day. We’re so thankful for you, moms!

Thank You Volunteers!
