Social Development, June 1, 2015 - Fredericton
Nursing Home Week
In celebration of Nursing Home Week, June 1-7, Social Development Minister Cathy Rogers is encouraging New Brunswickers to visit one of the many nursing homes hosting special events throughout the week. Rogers and Justice Minister Stephen Horsman were at the Garden Creek School in Fredericton, on May 29, to meet with the Time Bank project participants. The project, which originated among community partners last fall, brings seniors and children together to share knowledge, build relationships and learn to appreciate each other's perspectives. Rogers took the opportunity to declare June 1st as Intergenerational Day in New Brunswick. The two ministers posed with students and staff of the school, seniors from the Shannex Parkland Retirement Residence in Fredericton and YMCA representatives.
