Communications/Reports

Each home has a variety of donations accounts and Toronto Long-Term Care Homes and Services has an overarching policy that requires any expenditure request from a donations account to have the support and endorsement of both the Home Advisory Committee and the General Manager.  Further, expenditure requests over the amount of $7,500.00 also require the endorsement of the Advisory Committee on Long-Term Care Homes and Services.

The policy related to designated uses of the donations accounts states that expenditures shall not be made for the ordinary operation and maintenance of the home.  The policy further states that the purpose of the donations accounts is to enrich or enhance the quality of life for residents.

The Lakeshore Lodge Home Advisory Committee has recently reviewed and approved an expenditure request as outlined in their minutes of April 15, 2010.  This request is now referred to the Advisory Committee on Long Term Care Homes and Services for the committee’s further consideration.
