His Story

×

If you are seeking knowledge about music, movies, sports or anything popular culture, Donovan is your guy! He has an encyclopedic knowledge of facts and loves sharing it with Elders, staff and visitors. You might recognize Donovan from his popular podcast, ‘The Don Show’ which broadcasts on Sherbrooke’s Facebook page. The show features Donovan expressing his insights on all things popular culture and is a wonderful example of an Elder sharing his passions with our Sherbrooke community and beyond.

Welcome to Sherbrooke Community Centre

Saskatoon’s Sherbrooke Community Centre is a long term care home. Our mission is to create a community that supports each person to live a full and abundant life. We are a registered Eden Alternative® Care Home that follows the Eden Alternative Philosophy of Care and are committed to fighting the three plagues of long term care: loneliness, helplessness and boredom. There are 263 residents, 100 Community Day Program participants, volunteers, families, students, pets, and over 500 staff at Sherbrooke.

We have three principles that guide all community members in the provisions of care and service for residents and community day program participants:

Individuality – Each person is embraced as an individual with unique abilities, characteristics, choices, needs and opportunities for growth.

Normalcy – What is normal for a person based on their unique life experiences, relationships, culture, and society.

Reality – Care, while based on individuality and normalcy, is practical, appropriate and delivered within available resources.
