‘CODE MARY’ – RESIDENT INSPIRED TRIBUTE

Recently the family of previous resident, Mary Rombouts, sparked a new tradition at Meadow Park Chatham.  On February 14th when Mary passed away, her family invited staff to walk with them and form an honour guard in their Mom’s memory as the funeral home left with their beloved Mother.  Staff were very honoured and touched to be a part of this moment and the tribute sparked an initiative to provide this tribute to all of the homes residents. The tribute has been named “Code Mary” in honour of Mary Rombouts.  When a “Code Mary” is called staff will gather together to escort the family and create an honour guard to show final respects to the individual who was a part of our extended family at the home.  We thank Mary’s family for inspiring us to continue to strive to make a difference in the lives of the people we care for.    

Meadow Park Chatham is a fully accredited long-term care home proudly serving the community of Chatham-Kent since 1979.  Tours are always welcome – please contact Lydia Swant to arrange a time to view the home and discuss care and services offered.
