Are you, or your partner trying to live independently but struggling with eating lately? Here are some practical tips to help you or your loved ones enjoy meals again:

🍌 Having easy-to-eat foods be accessible. Puddings, yogurts, and finger foods are some great options.

🪷 Provide a calm environment during meal times with minimal distractions.

🚰 Stay hydrated and drink lots of water. Remind others and provide opportunities for hydration throughout the entire day.

🕚 Try to keep a routine schedule for meals. Whether that's 3 set meal times a day, or multiple meal times per day at the same time to try eating.

🌈 Eating colourful foods and eating the rainbow can help you consume more nutrients. It also makes eating a joy to look at, and fun.

🍲 Your taste buds are changing. Make sure to try new foods and textures, but don't overwhelm yourself with a lot of new foods all at once.

☎️ Access support; reach out to a doctor to discover root causes, sign up for Meals on Wheels, have a PSW, and more!

This year marks the 4th Irish Heritage Month in Canada. This is a time for Canadians to reflect upon how the Irish have helped shape Canada and to celebrate Irish heritage and culture. There are an estimated 4.5 million Canadians with Irish ancestry and that is 15% of the population. To celebrate Irish heritage many cities across Canada will focus on St. Patrick’s Day parades as well as some community local events.

Historically Irish Canadians have helped shape our country. Thomas D’Arcy McGee was the founding father of Confederation and Patrick Reid was on the team of designers who created the Canadian flag. Patrick Reid was recruited by the Prime Minister’s office and put the design team together.

There is a long history of Irish immigration in Canada and many came from fishing and ship building backgrounds. Many communities were formed in Newfoundland and Nova Scotia where today there is still a strong heritage through local culture and traditions.

Some local events to celebrate Irish heritage include:
St. Patrick’s Day Celebrations on Mar 14, 2026 at the German Canadian Club held by London Irish Folk Club/Cultural Society and the Canadian Celtic Choir will hold a “Luck of the Irish” concert at Colborne Street United Church from 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM.

February marks Psychology Month, a national opportunity to highlight the importance of psychological health and to recognize the emotional labour that all workers carry every day.

In home and community care, the work is meaningful, but it can also be demanding. Building strong mental health literacy and practical stress management habits helps protect both staff well-being and the quality of
care we provide.

If you are a caregiver or worker needing to reach out, contact Canada's mental health hotline 988, your local distress centre, or your employment EAP to discuss your options.
