Huronview seeking approvalfrom province
Huron County's Huronview, home for the
aged, is seeking approval from the provincial
ministry of community and social services for
preferred accommodation for extended care
residents.
Huronview administrator Wayne Lester
said 'the ministry adopted a policy on
preferred accommodation several years ago,
but because of the possible class distinction,
Huronview had decided to not have such a
policy.
However, Mr. Lester said recent requests
from residents pushed him into submitting
the report, firstly to Huron County council
then the provincial ministry. County council
gave approval at its July 3 meeting. The
report has now been sent to the ministry.
Preferred accommodation won't be avail-
able at Haaaaaaare tnnatart Inst snnth of
Clinton on Highway 4, until the ministry
okays it and then only if the resident requests
it. Also, it is only for extended care residents
which are those needing continual nursing
care.
Mr. Lester said the difference between a
regular room and a preferred accommodation
room will be noticeable in the interior
decorating which is chosen by the resident.
Also; closet space will be larger and furniture
will be of a better quality.
"Preferred accommodation rooms will be a
little more homier," said Mr. Lester noting
that moms now have painted walls.
The maximum rate for preferred accom-
modation will be $32.49, an amount set by the
province. Huronview, said its administrator,
can charge less than that amount but not
more
His plan calls for 77 of Huronview's 71
extended care beds to be phased -in as
preferred accommodation beds. That number
is the maximum, percentage wise, allowed by
the ministry. Of these beds, 21 will be
private and 56 will be semi -private.
Mr. Lester expects it will be a year before
the preferred accommodation beds are
phased -in.
Extended care residents pay up to $18.94 a
day at Huronview. The amount between that
and $42 a day is covered by OHIP and any
costs over that amount are paid in a 70-30
ratio by the province and Huron County. The
extra costs usually involve nursing care.
Residential care at Huronview costs $31.94
a day and is not subsidized by any
government.

Again this week everyone took advantage
of the good weather and spent time outdoors.
Monday afternoon we had the privilege of
going to Marilyn Faber's farm. She is on the
staff at Queensway. We saw sheep, veal
calves, chickens and goats.
Marilyn went out of her way and had
fabulous snacks for us including chocolate
cake, chocolate chip cookies and peanut
butter000kies. Special thanks to Marilyn and
her mother for an absolutely wonderful
afternoon.
A barbecue at noon' was on the agenda for
Tuesday. Everyone enjoyed hotdogs and
hamburgers as well as fresh air and sunshine.
That same day the Church serviee'was led by
Rev. Matheson. He was accompanied on the
piano by Jean Hodgert.
A trip to Stratford on Wednesday was an
enjoyable outing for many residents.
We had lunch at McDonald's and spent the
afternoon at the Art Fair hi the park. The
residents particularly liked the work of the
lady who built up pictures and put them in a
box frame. Many artists were from Stratford
area. A fantastic day in all.
Friday we enjoyed charades in the
morning. In the afternoon a teaparty in
Louise Mitchell's mom, where Louise and
Lucille Jeffrey entertained the rest of us with
a few renditions of old and loved tunes.
REST HOM E
For most of Wednesday afternoon the
majority of residents played Bingo in the sun
room.
A croquet tournament was held Thursday
afternoon on the side lawn. Although not
everyone entered it was quite evident those
who took part were experienced in the sport.
W ilf Shapton and Muriel Gunning were the
winners in the mens and ladies division,
respectively.
