Menno Place 2020 Christmas Gifts

Many of you have been anticipating blessing your loved ones at Menno Place with a special Christmas gift. We know how important it is to be able to share a token of your love at Christmas, especially this year.

We are pleased to be able to receive and deliver your gifts and cards for your loved ones. Below, you will find requirements for gifts and cards in order to maintain proper infection control procedures. Delivery times for all buildings are also listed.

If you have any questions regarding Christmas gifts, please contact Life Enrichment Coordinator, Garry Janzen at garry.janzen@mennoplace.ca or 604-851-1332.

Gift Requirements

Please review these requirements to ensure proper infection control procedures can be followed:

• Self-contained presents can be received in plastic or cardboard boxes (no bags). These may be stacked
• Wrapping paper on the box is welcomed
• Clearly identify the resident’s first and last name, building, unit and room number on the top of the box
• Place the Christmas card inside the box so it doesn’t get separated from the gift
• Wrap fragile items with bubble wrap or tissue to ensure there is no breakage
• The size of the box must be a reasonable dimension for one person to lift and no more than 5lbs
• We will not be able to accept items requiring refrigeration

Your gift will be delivered to your loved one after a 48-hour quarantine. 

Flowers

Flowers do not need to be quarantined if delivered in a wipeable container. Please clearly mark your loved one’s name, building, unit and room number with the flowers.

You may wish to order from Buckets Fresh Flower Market in Abbotsford as they are aware of all Menno Place infection control protocols.
