Every Wednesday this month, our dining room has been filled with the sounds of conversation, laughter, and the smell of the grill. Residents and their families come together to enjoy a special summer barbecue featuring steak or chicken, baked potatoes with all the fixings, corn on the cob, and peaches with vanilla ice cream.

We’re happy to share a few photos from the gardens at St. Joseph’s Lifecare Centre and Stedman Community Hospice. Huge thanks to the wonderful team who cares for these gardens so thoughtfully, creating a welcoming space for residents, patients and their families.

On our campus, the garden is more than just a spot outdoors; it is a quiet place to pause, reflect, and find calm - a comforting space for residents, patients, and staff.
