⚠️ July 7 is National Injury Prevention Day!

At Viva Retirement Communities, we know that safety supports vibrant living.

From clear walkways to thoughtful design, every detail matters.

We appreciate the dedication of our Joint Health and Safety Committee (JHSC) for helping us stay mindful of risks and committed to care.

Let’s keep building communities where everyone feels supported, seen, and safe.

🍓 In Loving Memory of Doreen Beath🍓

This week, our community gathered for a very special Strawberry Social — an event held in loving memory of our dear friend and long-time volunteer, Doreen Beath

Doreen brought warmth, laughter, and endless compassion to our retirement community. Her dedication touched countless lives, and her presence is deeply missed by Community Members, Team Members, and fellow volunteers alike.

Thanks to everyone who joined us to honour her legacy. From the delicious treats to the joyful conversations, the day was a beautiful reminder of the impact one person can make.

Here’s to Doreen— your kindness continues to grow in the hearts of all who knew you. ❤️🍓
