Steps to LivingWell


Shield yourself from the Aging effects of the sun. By some estimates, sun exposure accounts for nearly 90 percent of age related damage to often-exposed areas such as the face, the back of the neck and the back of the hands.  Ultraviolet (UVA) rays are responsible for long-term photoaging, while UVB’s are behind sunburns.  Both types damage healthy skin cells and make it harder for skin to heal, and both play a role in skin cancer.  It can also make your skin thicker in some areas and thinner in others, affecting skin tone and texture.
Slathering on sunscreen is a smart strategy for both preventing and undoing sun damage.  Using sunscreen everyday allows sun damaged skin time to heal. To get the most benefit from sunscreen, apply a broad spectrum formula of at least SPF 30 half hour before going outdoors – even on cloudy days.  Reapply every two hours, especially if you’re sweating, wet, or have dried or rubbed your skin with a towel.  Wear a hat and avoid being out in the sun at peak times.

Since no sunscreen can block all UV rays, some radiation does get through to skin.  Look for products with sun protection and antioxidants in one bottle.  Check the expiration date: Sunscreen usually lasts three years, but toss it sooner if it has separated or has an off smell.
The truth is that it is never too late for sun protection.  Keeping your skin healthy can help you enjoy your senior years to the fullest.

Steps to LivingWell


If you’re looking for one simple diet adjustment to offset your naturally slowing metabolism as you get older, drinking more water could be your golden ticket. Research found that people who were regular water drinkers consumed an average of 193 fewer calories a day than people who didn’t drink any water.
Starting your meal with a glass of water can also help you eat less.  Think water is boring?  Add a twist of lemon or lime, or add fresh berries to a pitcher of water and keep it in the fridge to infuse it with calorie-free flavour.

You’ll need to sip other beverages selectively to avoid empty calories.  If you’re a fan of fruit juice, switch to 100 percent juice varieties that contain pulp to get a little fibre with no added sugar.  Since sugar promotes fat storage around your middle, making better choices may not only result in a lower number on the scale, but it may help reshape your figure and prevent or reverse the stereotypical middle-age spread.
As we age, the balance between our need for water and our thirst for water shifts.  In fact, the less water an older person drinks, the less thirsty they become, leaving them open to the risk of serious dehydration and other complications.

Adjust your beverage intake based on outside temperature, activity level and medical conditions.  Eating a diet of a variety of foods and drinking water regularly will help you stay healthy and hydrated.

Delmanor Northtown's 'Walk of Life'!

At Delmanor Northtown, residents and team members are dedicated to being involved in the community in which they live.  Residents feel a great sense of pride when participating in fundraising events that change lives. 

With the support of their TRIDEL team, the Delmanor Northtown residents participated in the 2016 Walk of Life which supports the Cardiac Health Foundation. It all started with the Healthy Hearts Chef Challenge, in which the Delmanor Culinary Team won 1st place overall to create a healthy and delicious meal. Their next goal was to walk in the 2016 Walk of Life and complete the 5K successfully.  Since 1965,  The Walk of Life has raised $12.5 Million nationally for facilities, scholarships & research, patient & public awareness, professional education and medical equipment. Walking & exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation programs are widely recommended as part of the continuum of cardiovascular care and the reason why the National WALK OF LIFE campaign was started.


In the early hours of Saturday, May 28th, the Delmanor Northtown team got themselves ready for a walk that will change lives - -many lives - -including that of 11 year old Isabella Rizzo, who is also known as “The Heart Warrior”. Her mother Cathy walked alongside the Delmanor Team and enchanted everyone with the stories of how the Cardiac Health Foundation was saving lives every day. Lives of those we know; lives of those we will meet one day as they grow into adulthood, all thanks to the advances that have been made possible by the Walk of Life.

At the end of the 5K walk, team Delmanor was tired, but spirits were filled with gratitude; gratitude for the chance to give back, gratitude to meet amazing people like Cathy Rizzo, and gratitude that together, we can make a direct impact in other people’s lives. Way to Go Team Delmanor Northtown!

Best Wishes to Glen Abbey's Marilyn!

Delmanor Glen Abbey is proud to be home to a growing and versatile number of residents. Strong bonds form in a home environment, strengthened by shared goals and great times. That is why it is especially bittersweet when a member of the Delmanor family moves on to a well-earned retirement.

Marilyn has been an incredible recreation manager, creating wonderful feats of entertainment and enrichment for almost ten years. In her time at Delmanor Glen Abbey, she helped residents flourish, fostering creativity and skills, as well as overcoming challenges with positivity and determination. She also worked with residents as well as staff not as a ‘cog in the machine’, but as a friend one could turn to for guidance and inspiration.


Marilyn has always held the biggest smile, and her energy was infectious. She could turn a rainy day inside into an afternoon at an indoor ‘beach’ and was always able to think on her toes to make the best of any situation. We knew as we wished her a tearful goodbye that her retirement would be more fun than rest, and her days will be filled with the same excitement that she brought to to Delmanor Glen Abbey each and every day.

From everyone at Delmanor, best wishes for a healthy and happy retirement Marilyn, you will be missed!

Meditation & Relaxation at Delmanor Glen Abbey

Medical mysteries are often shrouded in sciences that often make us feel as though we are at their mercy. History proves however that a person can take direct control of their own well-being to affect their physical health, their mental capacities, and spiritual growth. The practice of meditation has been a focus of ongoing attention at Delmanor Glen Abbey, and it has given the residents another order of control over their overall well-being.

Many cultures throughout the ages have turned to meditation to calm their inner voices.  The Delmanor residents were fortunate to have the help of a certified Hypnotist and Reiki Master to guide them through the process of calming their minds, relaxing their tensions, and finding an inner peace that is often difficult to attain. 

Through a step-by-step tour, the residents relaxed their bodies slowly with deliberate direction, placing them in tune with their pulses and their own natural methods of self-repair. Participants learned to watch themselves for signs of stress that otherwise might get ignored throughout the day, and provided tools and methods to take command over stress.




Being a shared experience, everyone who attended was guided back to full wakefulness and glances that implied the question of ‘did you feel that too?’ , that were traded when everyone realized that meditation can offer a much more refreshed feeling of control over our whole selves. The Glen Abbey residents realized that our natural levels of stress are something that we all attend to, and that exploring methods of conquering feelings of anxiety as well as feelings of powerlessness over health issues is always a worthwhile endeavor.

The Art of Tattooing at Delmanor Glen Abbey!

The art of tattooing has been around for centuries.  Ancient people began putting ink to skin in a way that was almost instinctual, one of few behavioral traits from ancient times that still exists today.

Civilizations all throughout history have used tattooing as a way to signify rank, and to display messages upon oneself.  The residents of Delmanor Glen Abbey were given an opportunity to learn about the interesting history of tattooing, their limitless meanings, current health and safety regulations that are used in North America, and even the opportunity to try a simulation using tools that are in practice today.


Canadian seniors today come from a rich and diverse history, with many life experiences and events that are often captured in tattoos.  Wars, loved family members, and historical happenings have been captured on the skin of some of the Delmanor Glen Abbey residents themselves.

The 'Tattoo Tryouts" gave the Delmanor Glen Abbey residents an opportunity to try the art from the other side of the canvas, and also those that may have been fearful of the art, an opportunity to experience tattooing first hand.  Conversations were sparked with those residents with tattoos as to their particular meanings, historical significance and timing of when they received their tattoos.

A simulation ended the gathering when a tattoo machine was reassembled with a ballpoint pen in the place of needles.  This demonstration allowed those that were interested a chance to operate the machines in a safe environment.  The buzzing and vibrations provoked many laughs, along with those who realized that their inhibitions were not only easily conquered, but fun!

The Joy of Hats, at Delmanor Northtown

There once was a time that everyone would not think of going out in public without wearing a hat! 

The Northtown Models
Norma, best known as "The Hat Lady", is an expert in vintage fashion. She has a personal collection of over 2500 hats! Norma and Jim came to Delmanor Northtown to share with residents and team members information about her wonderful hat collection; some traditional, some designed for Royalty, some very rare, some one of a kind, and some very high end designer hats from past decades. 

Mary
Laurie

Delmanor Northtown residents, team members, and guests, modeled their favorite hat or one from the collection, while Norma explained the history of each hat and when it would have been worn. 

Everyone agreed that an attractive hat can certainly be a real spirit booster!  For those who enjoy wearing hats they were delighted to learn that hats still play an important role in fashion today.

Appreciating the Northtown Volunteers with a Vintage Carnival!

April is National Volunteer Appreciation Month,  and there was no better time to thank and recognize the wonderful volunteers of Delmanor Northtown! They give so much to others and selflessly make personal sacrifices to improve the lives of others.  The Delmanor Northtown residents and team members wanted to give a heart felt THANK YOU for their dedication, their time and for sharing their talents to enrich the Northtown community!

On Friday, April 15th Northtown's Newton Theatre was transformed into a Vintage Carnival, where red and white tents and colorful decorations took guests back to a simpler time. The room buzzed with excitement as the volunteers enjoyed candy treats, a whimsical photo booth, a delicious BBQ lunch and fun carnival games. All throughout the room, laughter and gratitude was felt, as many awestruck volunteers exclaimed: “ALL of this was planned for us!?”


Everyone at Delmanor Northtown are so very fortunate to have fantastic community volunteers who run a variety of recreational programs, upkeep the rooftop garden, organize the musical chorus and library books, chair committees and volunteer for a variety of special events. Their contributions help to make Northtown the vibrant community that it is!



All of the volunteers received a beautiful individualized “star” word cloud that included descriptions of their personalities and special traits, along with a gift and certificate of recognition from the MPs office. Everyone felt loved and inspired to continue the great work that they have been doing and continue giving their all to help others.



From all of us at Delmanor Northtown, thank you to our volunteers, as truly, you are our shining stars!

Blue Jays Fever at Delmanor Wynford!

It's an understatement to say that the residents of Delmanor Wynford are just Toronto Blue Jays Fans. Last season Delmanor Wynford took a bus load of excited residents to 2 games at the Rogers Centre, and followed them throughout the season to the playoffs. This year to start off the Blue Jays 40th season, Duane Ward was invited to Delmanor Wynford to speak about his life as a MLB baseball player and a Toronto Blue Jay.



Duane Ward was first introduced to baseball in his hometown of Farmington, New Mexico. Duane was one of the most dependable relievers in baseball during his 10-year Major League career. He holds the Blue Jays single season saves record (45 in 1993) and is a two-time World Series Champion (1992 and 1993). Over his career, Duane recorded 670 strikeouts and 121 saves and was an American League All-Star in 1993. Duane currently lives with his family in Las Vegas, but spends a great deal of time in Toronto assisting with the Blue Jays Baseball Academy, and is passionate about giving back to youth baseball.



Residents from Delmanor’s four sister properties came to Wynford in their blue, white and Jays attire to greet Duane, and ask him various questions about his life, and the current Jays team. Duane Ward answered all the resident's questions, and then autographed memorabilia and took pictures with the excited attendees. He is a wonderful and inspirational person; everyone thoroughly enjoyed the stories and memories that Duane shared.



Duane Ward's visit hyped up the residents for the Home Game opener that evening, and for the 32 people that were going to the Rogers Centre the next day to cheer on the Blue Jays in their second home game.  Blue Jays fever is definitely strong at Delmanor Wynford, everyone is looking forward to another exciting year ahead!

Delmanor Northtown's Arabian Night!

Considered to be one of the oldest known dances, the magic of belly dancing has enchanted audiences world-wide for generations. Traditionally rooted in the Middle East and the Arabian Peninsula, belly dancing made its debut at the 1893 World Columbian Exposition in Chicago, where audiences were shocked and mesmerized by the beautiful art form.  

In order to fully celebrate the Arabian Nights Event at Delmanor Northtown, the intrigue and   mystique of Arabian belly dancing was brought to the residence!


 The evening started off with a delicious 4-course Arabian dinner which included a fattoush salad, an exotic lentil soup, and specialty Arabic dishes prepared to tantalize the taste buds. The lounge was transformed into a Sultan’s tent with gold and maroon accents lighting up the space. As residents and guests walked in, they were quickly transported to another time and a distant, exotic place.

The belly dancer entered the tent with rhythmic music and prepared for her first dance - the Assyrian Sword Dance. Music from Egypt and Turkey that has sustained the sands of time played as the gorgeous belly dancer showed 10 different dances that represented all of the regions of the Middle East.




The audience was captivated and delighted with the authentic Arabic experience.  The wonderful dinner and entertainment complimented each other perfectly! 

Another fabulous event at Delmanor Northtown!

Delmanor Glen Abbey's Continued Fundraising Success!

Ian Anderson House is Ontario’s first in-resident cancer hospice that offers without charge, quality, end-of-life palliative care.  Residents are cared for by trained medical professionals, for those who, for whatever reason, cannot be given the necessary round-the-clock care in their own homes. The House, therefore, is designed to create a homelike and safe environment where residents receive round-the-clock care and support.


Delmanor Glen Abbey is pleased to support this important and crucial organization each year through various fundraising initiatives. Such initiatives included, various jewelry sales, marketing events, and card games. This year Delmanor Glen Abbey raised and amazing $1,599! A huge contributor to this success goes to the Community Bridge group that comes to Delmanor Glen Abbey every two weeks to play a friendly game of bridge, and in turn they provide support to one of the most beneficial support services in the community.




Way to go Delmanor Glen Abbey!  Turning our daily routines and pastimes into fund raising opportunities sets a fantastic example for us all!
