Quality Report Harbour View Haven Emergency Drills

Throughout 2021, Harbour View Haven will be testing our voice-codes monthly to ensure staff are appropriately trained and prepared to respond to any type of emergency. HVH has always made it a practice to run fire safety and evacuation drills monthly however, we will now be testing all drills on a yearly schedule. This was a  recommendation from our March 2020 Accreditation Survey Team. To limit disruption to our residents, some codes

will be drilled together or as tabletop exercises when possible.


During February, we practiced, “Code Yellow – Missing Resident” which went both quickly and successfully as reported during our debriefing session. Great job to all staff who responded to the drill. In March we will be testing Code White.


A big thank you to our residents, family and visitors for their patience and cooperation during HVH drills.

Did you know that HVH plants a sensory garden each summer? Sensory gardens help to provide meaningful and stimulating outdoor engagement opportunities for our residents. Research has shown benefits and positive outcomes for seniors’ mental health when provided access to the outdoors. This includes: • Improved sleep patterns • Positive impacts of natural light on mood • Promotes physical movement, social engagement, stress reduction, and opportunities for relaxation • Stimulates positive memories The goals of our sensory garden experiences include providing opportunities for increased relaxation, well-being, and enjoyment of the outdoors! Volunteers, family, staff, and residents are all welcome to enjoy our wonderful garden space during the summer months.
