Program Support Services
The Program Support & Volunteer Services Department: is committed to providing programs and services of a recreational and therapeutic nature. Resident choice, interest, needs, strengths, and lifestyle history are major parts in program planning. The Department tries to involve and encourage family, friends and community in Resident programming.
Volunteers are an essential part of the organization’s operations. Many Heritage Place Residents choose to stay involved by becoming volunteers.
Residents are involved in the planning and running of programs of interest; from exercise programs and games to outings on our para-transit bus or van. Program opportunities are designed to be of interest to all residents. Residents are encouraged to participate at our monthly Program Committee meeting where ideas are shared to improve the monthly calendar and evaluate activity programs. Resident input helps our recreation staff to tailor programs and introduce new ideas for the benefit of all.
Activity Programs are offered to residents by enthusiastic staff who offer large and small, and one-to-one programs, as well as community bus outings. A wide range of activation and entertainment programs are outlined in the monthly Activity Calendar.
