By Howard Mozel ( >.\KVILLE BEA V ER STAFF Post Inn Village is not simply a much-needed long term care facility, say its supporters, but an important component of the Oak Park commu nity at large. During Monday's groundbreak ing, held near the site at Tribute Homes' sales centre on Glenashton Boulevard and attended by Premier Ernie Eves, area politicians touted the many benefits of integrating Post Inn residents within their neighbour hood. According to Regional Chair Joyce Savoline, the 228-bed Post Inn will be much more than merely bricks and mortar but a place where the residents and stall will create a special "spirit." The last thing the Region wants, Savoline continued, is to isolate sen iors and to that end a professional childcare centre w ill be part of the building in addition' to a " main street" concourse featuring a dental office, hair salon and restorative care area - all overlooking the front porch. "The enhanced living environ ment will greatly improve the quali ty of life for the seniors we care for at this facility." said Sheldon Wolfson, Barrie Erskine · Oakville Beaver fam ily DentiSffy ZV.

"This is a very appropriate way to integrate (residents) into the commu nity," said Eves, who agreed that addressing the lifestyle concerns of seniors is an important piece of the overall healthcare puzzle. "At the end of the day what's important is what goes on inside the building." In short, said Eves, the Post Inn concept will provide residents the dignity they've earned. " Seniors have made a profound contribution to our quality of life in Ontario and they deserve the best care and comfort the system can provide."
