Pre-Plan for Peace of Mind

Pre-planning for your final wishes is a compassionate choice that relieves your family of the burdensome task during a time of grief. It provides financial security, shielding against rising costs and disputes. Furthermore, it offers emotional support, allowing loved ones to come together, grieve, and bond. Planning your farewell in advance ensures that your specific wishes and budget are met. It becomes a cherished gift to your loved ones, enabling you to share your life’s story one last time. Remember, if you want to live well and die well, you need to plan your funeral well!

Hiring Housekeepers

Do you like cleaning up? Do you know somebody else who does? We’re looking to hire Housekeepers so you can do what you love and be paid for it. Saskatoon Services for Seniors is looking for kind souls with good work ethic to go to seniors’ homes and do laundry, cleaning, and other related tasks. You won’t need to do any nursing-related tasks so it’s no medical or personal care knowledge is needed. Please inquire if interested.

Shopping Delivery Program

Let us shop on your behalf. Our members can phone or e-mail us with a detailed shopping list and we will go to the store for you and then deliver the groceries to your home. You can order as often or as little as you need. Some people even only order once to get that item from a store that’s too far from home or if the weather is terrible and they do not want to venture out. We do have weekly limits to the spots available (another reason why our volunteers are so important) so please contact us for more information.

Looking for Snow Equipment!

We are looking for donations of equipment for our winter services. From shovels to ice breakers and even snowblowers we would appreciate any functional equipment donation. As winter closes in we’re trying to get the equipment and staff to help fend of that mean ole Jack Frost again.

We’re Hiring & Accepting Volunteers this Winter

Winter is coming and we won’t be caught unprepared! That’s why Services for Seniors is hiring able-bodied people to help clear driveways, sidewalks, and walkways for seniors this winter. Still want to help but don’t have time for a job? We’re also accepting volunteers too! Being snowed in is inconvenient for the able-bodied but it’s downright terrifying for a senior. So contact us and see what openings we have.

Leaving Dependency Behind

Many drug and alcohol addictions stem from a lack of healthy coping mechanisms when dealing with life’s numerous stressors. Drugs and alcohol provide short-term escape solutions, but often lead to long-term health complications. Laser acupuncture can help with symptoms of withdrawal associated with drug and alcohol addictions, such as cravings, body aches, headaches, nausea, sweating, and muscle cramps, making the process of quitting less stressful. Coupled with lifestyle changes such as the use of nutritional supplements and beneficial herbs, and exercise, laser acupuncture can lead you on a road to recovery that will include more self-care and better coping skills.

Counseling’s Crucial Role in Healing

November 25th marks the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, emphasizing the vital role of counseling in ending abuse and aiding survivors. In a world where women endure physical, emotional, and psychological violence, counseling serves as a beacon of hope and healing. Counselors offer a safe space for survivors to share, heal, and regain strength. Through empowerment, validation, and guidance, counselors help women regain control and confidence. Today, let’s honor the tireless dedication of counselors globally, working relentlessly to eradicate violence against women, one healing session at a time, and reminding us of the steps toward a safer, more equitable world for all.
