On Monday, January 6th, one of our Activity Coordinators, Trey, took 20 of The Waterford Seniors downtown to Robson and Burrard where they took a tour of the CTV Newsroom.
The credit goes to Diane, another one of our Activity Coordinators, who came up with the idea of requesting a tour with The Waterford’s residents one day while walking down Robson Street.
Upon arrival, Promotions Coordinator Johnny Mah was ready and waiting to give the group a tour around. The residents were able to meet CTV news anchor, Coleen Christie, during the tour, which was nice as many of them recognized her. The various news sets were buzzing with activity during our entire visit and we couldn’t help but feel special getting to be backstage.
Overall, this was a fabulous experience for all of our residents as well as our staff who accompanied them. We would recommend a similar tour for any other seniors’ residence looking for a fresh new outing idea.
Thanks CTV!
