Dan had dreamed of going whale watching ever since moving to British Columbia in 1994. It wasn’t until recently, in the wake of an ALS diagnosis, that he and his family decided to finally make it happen. Thanks to Chartwell Wish of a Lifetime - Rêver pour la vie, Dan’s wish came true as he set out on a fully guided whale watching and marine wildlife tour, joined by his family members.

🍓✨ Strawberry Social Sweetness! ✨🍓

On July 9th, we turned our bistro into a berry wonderland for our Strawberry Social — and it was absolutely delightful! ❤️🍰 Residents sipped sparkling water with fresh strawberry slices and refreshing strawberry lemonade, enjoyed chocolate-covered strawberries, fluffy cupcakes, and strawberries with whipped cream — pure summer bliss! 🍓🍫🧁

The bistro was dressed up in vibrant red and strawberry-themed decor, and with the music playing and laughter all around, it truly felt like a strawberry paradise. 🎶🍓🌟

☀️🔥 Summer is officially here! 🔥☀️

We kicked off the season with a delicious summer BBQ that brought smiles and sunshine all around! 🍗🍞🥔🥤

Our amazing cooks prepared grilled chicken breasts on buns, served with fresh veggie skewers, creamy potato salad, refreshing sodas, and a sweet treat to top it off — chocolate croissants for dessert! 🍫🥐

We opened the dining room doors and brought the BBQ outside for a true home-like experience — just like our residents remember doing in their own backyards. 🏡❤️

The atmosphere was filled with laughter, good food, and happy hearts. Our residents loved every bite and moment! 😊✨

Rain or Shine, We Grill with Love! 🌧️🍔🌭

Today at Empress, we hosted a Resident BBQ that we’ve been planning for over a month — and not even the rain could stop us! 🌧️💪

Our amazing staff braved the weather to serve up juicy hamburgers, hot dogs, fries, and a variety of condiments — just like home. We had Coke, root beer, ginger ale, and more to sip on, and for dessert? Brownies and ice cream! 🍦🍫

The smiles on our residents’ faces said it all — pure joy and a taste of comfort. We captured some beautiful moments, shared laughs, and created memories we’ll treasure. 💛
