Forest Dale Nursing Home

Forest Dale Nursing Home Board is Looking to Expand! 

Alicia O'Hara, Public Relations Committee, Forest Dale Board of Directors / Forest Dale Nursing Home - 506-882-3015

We are looking for additional board members to add to our team. We strive to have representation from all Wards of Fundy Albert and are seeking representation from Wards 4, 5, and 6. Forest Dale Nursing Home is a leader in patient care and community development. If you have an interest in seniors care as well as community development and resources, please reach out to Forest Dale Nursing home to be connected with our Nominations Committee. If being a board member doesn't feel like the right fit for you, please consider volunteering with the activities department or Nursing Home without Walls.

Also, kudos to Forest Dale for securing an upgrade to their equipment, with the addition of 35 new replacement beds. Resident comfort and staff safety remain a priority in the home!

Connecting Albert County: Then & Now

23/12/2024

Submitted by Joseph Gallant, Primary Healthcare Manager & CAC Founding Board Member

In 2013, our broader community came together to look at our collective assets and strengths and identify gaps that we could work on together to fill. One of those gaps was communication and linking together our cluster of Villages and communities. In May 2014, community members came together again and agreed that this would be the priority that we spent our collective efforts on and thus, the Fundy Communication Network was born.

by Melody Land, CAC Coordinator

Connecting Albert County has been in operation since December 2014, when its website was launched, and began publishing its first regular newsletter in January of 2015. CAC's creation resulted from needs identified during many community meetings and discussions held between 2009 and that date. It was spearheaded by a group of passionate community members that included Joanne Butland, Deborah Carr, Joseph Gallant, Barb Gebuhr, Livia Goodbrand, Lynne Greenblatt, Mindy Holmstrom, Susan Quinn, Phyllis Sutherland, Janine Underhill, Janet Wallace, Micha Fardy (then representing the United Way Greater Moncton SENB) and Joanna Brown (then representing the Westmorland-Albert Community Inclusion Network). From the get-go, it received further support from the Albert County Health and Wellness Center, with substantial funding by The Bennett and Albert County Health Care Foundation. CAC was truly created by the community, for the community, with care, intention, and dedication.

Inspired by the Chipoudy Community Revitalization Committee Welcome Committee, we at Connecting Albert County would like to share this message with newcomers.

The team at Connecting Albert County would love to welcome you to our area! We hope you soon feel at home here, and enjoy the many treasures our community and environment have to offer.

At ConnectingAlbertCounty.org, you can find information about the area and past issues of our publication. I encourage you to sign up (click on Publication in the footer) and check out our Trail Guide by clicking on Exploring Our Trails. You can also find a calendar of events - however, this is rather empty right now due to COVID.

We invite you to contribute to our publication and website. If you would like to submit a short article, please email [email protected]. Residents of rural Albert County would love to hear why you have chosen this area for your new home. If you plan to start a new business, this is an opportunity to announce it.

I look forward to hearing from you and seeing you at some point,
Janet Wallace, Coordinator/Editor, Connecting Albert County
