D'Youville Life & Wellness Community

D'Youville Life & Wellness Community Each person who comes to D’Youville – whether a resident, client, tenant, or employee – is supported in this way, with respect, dignity, and compassion.

Since 1960, D'Youville Life & Wellness Community has been dedicated to offering exceptional elder care to Greater Lowell and surrounding areas, earning the trust and respect of our community and peers. Founded in 1960 by the Sisters of Charity of Ottawa, D’Youville has earned the trust of the community and the respect of its peer organizations for providing area seniors with superior care. We provide a continuum of care to meet the changing needs of seniors:

- Short-term rehabilitation and transitional care
- Adult day health care
- Specialized Alzheimer’s and other dementia-related care
- Long-term nursing care
- Hospice care
- Independent living at Bruyere Gardens, our affordable housing community

We have expanded our services with the opening of D’Youville’s Center for Advanced Therapy, a 33-bed short-term rehab/transitional care facility in the spring of 2012. D’Youville is led by a team of dedicated professionals who are passionate about their vocation and who share the vision that the Sisters of Charity had in creating a place where Greater Lowell’s aging population could be cared for with compassion and dignity. D’Youville recognizes that the whole person needs care – that the spiritual self is permanently entwined with the physical self and, as such, should be nurtured and sustained with the same attention as would be given to the body.

Daisy and Dewy kicked off the week with orientation. They learned how to care for residents, how to not mix up dentures with elf snacks and that you don’t use candy canes for hearing aids! 🤣

Daisy and Dewie love their coffee, but they don’t agree on which place has the best ! Which one do you like better? Starbucks or Dunks? Hot or iced ? Or no coffee at all maybe tea or hot chocolate?!

Saturdays are for doing laundry! Daisy and Dewie are here at Bruyere Gardens helping the residents get it all done !

Whew! After approximately 47 meetings today (elves don’t have watches, so we’re estimating), we finally landed at Recruitment & Retention!
Did you know D’Youville celebrates a birthday dinner every month for employees born in that month? 🎂🎉
As elves, we fully support this because:
1️⃣ Cake improves morale.
2️⃣ Cake improves retention.
3️⃣ Did we mention cake?
Honestly, if someone threw us a birthday dinner every month, we’d never leave either. Even Santa doesn't do that—and we work for him year-round. 😅

Dewie and Daisy slipped into the chapel today to celebrate the first week of Advent. Even elves know that Christmas isn’t just about the hustle and sparkle. It begins with prayer, reflection and preparing our hearts for the coming of Christ. ❤️

All hands on deck! Our elves have joined the maintenance team for snow removal. Please be patient! Apparently the snow shovels are too heavy and they decided to use candy canes 🤣
