Mennonite Nursing Home Complex Board press release

News Release

The Mennonite Nursing Home Complex Board of Directors wishes to announce the retirement of Joan Lemauviel, CEO/Administrator of the Mennonite Nursing Home Complex, effective Dec 31, 2021

Joan has served MNH in a variety of positions for 24 years. In her 17 years as administrator, she continued to lead the transition from a church based operation to an affiliate with the provincial health services. Joan has honoured the faith based ideology of MNH and our rich history of servant leadership and care that forms the basis of our organization. The depth and breadth of health care services has thrived under her leadership.

She developed a Safety Management System, developed and updated policy for both the board and the MNH, and led MNH through several Strategic Planning Sessions and Accreditation Reviews.

She planned and oversaw the restructuring of Mennonite Nursing Home Inc to streamline business operations of Country Gardens, Pine View and Sunrise Place. 

Construction of Sunrise Place, repaving parking lots and the lagoon replacement were three significant capital projects she completed.

Major renovations such as window replacement, flooring replacement, shingle replacement, upgrading heating systems, installing and replacing ceiling track lifts, upgrading equipment in tub rooms and laundry rooms were completed. New resident beds, renewal of the staff and resident lounges, and new security door card system were also undertaken.

We will miss her.

The board thanks Joan for her many years of exemplary dedicated service. A search committee will be established at the next board meeting. We look forward to continuing faith based servant care for the residents of MNH in line with our mission Statement – “Serving God by Serving Others.”

 

With thanks – Mennonite Nursing Home Complex board
