FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Brockville—Ellen Coutlee (right), inpatient at Brockville General Hospital (BGH), enjoys a summer barbeque lunch served up by Personal Support Worker Vaughnette Chatzikiriakos (left) while grandson Trystyn Aimer supervises. Nine clients at the Charles Street Site signed up for the special treat July 28th. “We do this every Friday in the summer for the residents at Garden Street Site (GSS) as part of our Restorative Care and Enhanced Activation programs,” says Sherry Anderson, BGH Director of Complex Continuing Care, Palliative Care and Rehab. “It is something different and they really enjoy it. Families attend, too. This is the first time we’ve tried it for clients at Charles Street.” The barbeque was a fundraiser for the GSS Resident Fund, funds raised to assist providing extras in activities and entertainment for residents in the BGH long-term care programs at Garden Street Site. Hosted at the Charles Street site by GSS staff, the fundraiser was a great success with the inpatients and their families, staff and volunteers—all who enjoyed a fresh summer barbeque in the middle of their day—while raising over $600.00 for the GSS Resident Fund.
