Spiritual Services
People of all faiths and beliefs are welcomed at Actionmarguerite. As a Catholic organization, Actionmarguerite provides Catholic services and sacraments. Our Spiritual Services programming also includes:
- Inter-denominational worship
- Smudging/Sweet grass ceremonies
- Memorial services
- Other activities designed to promote the personal well-being and the quality of life of our residents and staff.
Morning and evening prayers are broadcast daily in French and English over the P.A. system. Our Spiritual Care Chaplains are available to visit individual residents upon request.
The resident’s own parish priest/pastor/spiritual advisor or rabbi is always welcome to visit at Actionmarguerite. Whenever possible, residents are encouraged to continue to participate in their community parish or place of worship, providing arrangements can be made by the residents and/or their families.
Social Work
Social Workers are assigned to specific Resident Care units and work closely with other team members to ensure that residents and their families receive the support and assistance they need. Social Workers also coordinate admissions and financial and social matters for Actionmarguerite residents.
Residents may contact their unit Social Worker for assistance at any time.
Recreational Services
The Recreation Workers and their volunteers offer a broad range of activities, varying them according to residents’ interests and needs. Families are welcome to participate in and accompany residents to activities.
A bilingual monthly calendar of activities is posted on each unit, on the main floor and on this website under News > Calendar.
Volunteer Services
Actionmarguerite volunteers are identified by their name tags. Volunteers augment, expand and enrich the existing services offered to residents in all areas of care.
Those interested in volunteering can visit our volunteer page at Donations > Volunteer.
Gift Shop
The Auxiliary maintains a Gift Shop at both Actionmarguerite personal care homes. Funds are utilized to enhance resident care and services. Hours of operation may vary.
Hairstyling
Contract Hairstyling services are offered at all Actionmarguerite personal care homes on a daily basis. Residents are responsible for compensating the hairstylist, either directly or through their Actionmarguerite trust account.
Business hours and contact information are posted at the hair salon.
