Resident Menu Committee
The Resident Menu Committee met twice in June to try resident-submitted recipes or ideas and included stewed rhubarb with biscuits, chocolate zucchini cake, and rice pudding. These items were sampled and well-liked; to be added to the regular menu rotation. Residents enjoyed over the weekend the newly added Beef & Barley Soup that was previously suggested by a resident, “it was the best beef and barley soup I ever had!”. The Resident Menu Committee will meet again in July to sample the recently suggested Cabbage Rolls and a variety of pudding/custards.

Did you know that HVH plants a sensory garden each summer? Sensory gardens help to provide meaningful and stimulating outdoor engagement opportunities for our residents. Research has shown benefits and positive outcomes for seniors’ mental health when provided access to the outdoors. This includes: • Improved sleep patterns • Positive impacts of natural light on mood • Promotes physical movement, social engagement, stress reduction, and opportunities for relaxation • Stimulates positive memories The goals of our sensory garden experiences include providing opportunities for increased relaxation, well-being, and enjoyment of the outdoors! Volunteers, family, staff, and residents are all welcome to enjoy our wonderful garden space during the summer months.
