Activities
At Lanark Lodge we have a full range of activities and entertainment that are offered each month. All activities are under the supervision of the Recreation Manager. A calendar of events is posted on the bulletin boards throughout the resident home areas. Everyone is welcome to attend, including family and friends.
Dining
Three well balanced meals are provided daily, with snacks and beverages offered in between. All our delicious meals are prepared on site by our wonderful cooks and dietary aides.
Visitors and Guests
Colds and flu can be dangerous for the residents. Please ask your guests to reschedule their visit if they are sick.
Visiting Hours
We feel that it is important for the residents to visit with friends and family as much as possible. We ask that your visitors come between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., as that is when our doors automatically lock to keep you safe.
Guest Dining
Each Neighbourhood has a lounge that offers a quiet space for visits which can be used at any time. Complimentary tea and coffee are offered for all to enjoy. Visitors are encouraged to bring their own food if visiting during a meal and should notify the Registered Staff if the Resident is planning to eat outside of the regular dining area. For large groups, specific rooms can be reserved free of charge.
Contact Reception Monday to Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at 613-267-4225 ext. 7103.
Visiting Outside the Home
Residents can go visit family & friends outside the home as well. Just let the Nursing staff know and sign out in the books located in each neighbourhood. If you’re coming in after hours, ring the bell so staff can let you in (the entrance is locked then).
Staying away overnight? Let the Nurse know ahead of time so your medication is ready for you to take.
