Accreditation

Added on 01/10/2010 - Author : admin

Follow-up on Accreditation

Following the inspection in February 2008, we ensured that all the follow-up measures required by Accreditation Canada were carried out. Indeed, the official results indicated that we had received accreditation with follow-up in the form of reports. This is satisfactory.
 
The follow-up measures consisted of detailing certain points in our improvement plans, in certain sectors. In addition, we were to update all the indicators required.
 
We are now at the preparation stage for the next inspection in February 2011. The various teams are continuing their respective tasks. The surveys on personnel motivation and client satisfaction are moving along well. The self-assessments on standards, in each service and sector, will be analyzed and improvement plans will take shape. 
 
The search for excellence and quality improvement is everybody's daily concern. Our organizational culture is already well developed in this respect and the support of our managers and Board of Directors has been  invaluable.

The CHSLD, a story of family

Added on 14/05/2007 - Author : admin

Under the topic « The CHSLD, a story of family », the recreation service underlined the week by a meeting with the members of families, the nursing care personnel and the volunteers in our three establishment. A week which will point out the place of the CHSLD in the Health Network of the area and more particularly the beautiful daily work of the families near our elderly persons.

On Tuesday, May 6, 2003, the Pontiac Reception Centre underlined the exceptional work of its employees and the presence of the families, who often visit the other people.
On Wednesday, May 7, 2003, the Manoir Sacré Cœur had a good participation of volunteers and "Les Dames Auxiliaires", who are surely very important for our beneficiaries.
Finally, on Friday, May 9, 2003, the long term care held their meeting with the participation of the families, the personnel and the volunteers.
The Administration took advantage of this week to sincerely thank its personnel with baskets in the establishments.
With the same philosophy, which is to recreate bonds between the CHSLD, the families and the community, the recreation service prepares the story of the life for each beneficiary. The project consists in making a short summary for each one, who they are, their preferences, their habits. The participation of families and volunteers is really necessary.

Thank you for your implication and your patience !
