Barb Barlow 100Th Birthday Celebration 2

Joy and gratitude were in abundance as home care client Barbara Barlow blew out the candles on her 100^th birthday cake.

Surrounded by family and her Brightwater home care team, music-loving Barbara joyfully broke into song, singing favourite melodies such as ‘You Are My Sunshine’ and ‘Que Sera, Sera.’

Many hands make life work, and that is certainly the case for home care clients.

As more and more people choose to stay at home as they age, Barbara is a shining example of what is possible when the right home care services are in place.

Barbara’s daughter expressed gratitude for her mother’s home care services, highlighting how they made it easier for the family to care for her mother.

Congratulations Barbara!
