Premier and Minister of Finance, the Hon. David Burt, JP, MP, today visited three east end seniors homes: Sylvia Richardson Care Facility, Dorothy Crane Nursing Home and Cynthia’s Rest Home. He was accompanied by Deputy Premier, the Hon. Walter Roban, JP, MP; Deputy Speaker of the House and Aging Well Committee Chair, the Hon. Derrick Burgess, JP, MP and Member of Parliament for St. George’s West, Kim Swan, JP, MP.
Premier Burt stated, “Today was a great opportunity to spend some time with Bermuda’s seniors. We had a brief tour of the facilities, learned some history and celebrated a 90th birthday. This Government is fully committed to our seniors’ on-going health and welfare. Today’s visits gave us an opportunity to hear which services are working well and how we can work to continue to provide support for our seniors.”
