Information for Families.

What Should Families Provide for a Resident? 

Christmas Gift Ideas

​If you are not sure what your loved one needs this Christmas, we have a few suggestions!
First check the list on the closet door of each resident’s room. You will find a list of items they need. 
The end of the year is also a good time to go through your loved ones closet and take home what they do not need.
We recommend no more than 8 seasonal outfits.
 Gift Ideas:
  • Adaptive Clothing, and Capes  Visit www.silverts.com  
  • Calendars with pictures that bring back memories
  • Cross word puzzle books
  • White Boards and dry erase markers
  • Photos, in a small album  
 Give a gift of Time & Connection!
  • Send a Christmas Card to-  Resident - Rocmaura 10 Parks St. Saint John NB E2K 4P1
  • Purchase a gift card for a music therapy session!  
These are $50 for 1 hour.  All you have to do is make a donation on our website. We’ll make sure you get a tax receipt and direct your gift to the right program.
Give an hour of your time to:
  •        Read to a resident
  •        Assist a loved one with their meal
  •       Do a resident's nails
 NO Please
  • Pointsettias – however, Michaels has lovely artificial ones
  • Scented flowers
  • Blankets - we have lots presently
  • Powder - these cause breathing issues​

What can I provide for my family member at Rocmaura?

​Rocmaura strives to have a home-like environment & encourage family pictures & keepsakes, etc.  Adequate furnishings are supplied.
  • Due to limited storage areas…Residents require clothing for the season. i.e. in spring, please remove winter articles of clothing and take those home prior to bringing in the spring/summer wear.  In fall, remove summer articles and replace with winter etc.
  • It is strongly suggested that residents have a maximum of 8 - 10 suitable outfits at any one time in their wardrobes however; they will likely will require more than 8 – 10 of the smaller personal items such as undergarments (socks, underwear, bras or undershirts) and night clothes.  
  • Please take-home items such as suitcases & out-of-season clothing.  After a special event such as Christmas, take home any Resident owned decorations due to lack of storage space.
  • Televisions – The wardrobes in the facility can accommodate 19-20” television however; larger T.V.’s can be brought in, however; there is a higher risk of them being damaged.  Rocmaura is not responsible for damage.
  • All electrical appliances such as lamps or radios as well as furniture must be inspected by Maintenance prior to use.  Deliver these items to the nursing station; nursing staff will complete the appropriate requisition & maintenance will deliver to res. room.
  • Furnishings brought into the home must be delivered via receiving entrance to facilitate a disinfection process.  Please refrain from bringing in any furniture for a minimum of 1 month.  If you so choose to bring furniture in, the Unit Manager and the E.V.S. Manager must be consulted due to specific guidelines to facilitate our work and to maintain a safe environment.
  • Parking: Please do not park in designated fire lanes or handicap parking areas.
  • For more information, please visit our FAQ's section under the Admissions page.
