Have you received your free postcard in the mailbox from the Govrnment? Wondering what to do with it? Your loved one would love to receive a post card from you. Feel free to send it to Dufferin Care Centre with your loved ones full name and room number.
We have attached the poster for you to attend the Alzheimer Society Zoom workshop on Caregiving during COVID-19.
