Hi everyone, Tomorrow (August 25), the Technology for Assisted Living (TAL) Lab will be hosting our "Dog Days of Summer" event in RR-367 from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. While we do not expect the event to disrupt daily activities on the floor, you may notice a slight increase in foot traffic in the hallways and elevators during these hours. If you have some free time, we would love for you to stop by the lab and join us! I have attached the event poster with more details. Thank you, and please let me know if you have any questions.

Printer in Room RR326 is out of order - Do Not Use
by Josue De La O Morales 08 Jul '26

08 Jul '26

Hi everyone, Please be advised that the printer in room RR326 is currently out of order. It has been experiencing issues reading USB drives and, in several instances, has actually fried the drives connected to it. To prevent any potential data loss or permanent damage to your hardware, please do not use this machine or plug any USB drives into it. A technician is scheduled to come by within the next few days to take the printer to the shop for repairs. I will send out an update to the floor once the issue has been resolved and the printer is safely operational again. Thank you, Josue Daniel De La O Morales (he/him) Applied Technology Lead College of Rehabilitation Sciences University of Manitoba [cid:e831e14a-edfe-4e46-89ca-eed4f5fc69dc] P304D - 770 Bannatyne Avenue Winnipeg, Manitoba R3E 0W2 Cell: (204) 808-3030 Email: josue.delaomorales(a)umanitoba.ca

Upcoming RR3 Space Improvements and Renovations
by Faye Bauer 17 Apr '26

17 Apr '26

Hi everyone, I wanted to share an update on an upcoming initiative focused on cleaning up and enhancing several spaces within RR3. Over the past year, there has already been significant progress in upgrading several office spaces, including the RR333 classroom, and we are continuing that work by exploring several renovation projects. We are currently in the process of obtaining quotes from the HSC Maintenance Office for the following: * Renovation of the RR306/RR324 washrooms into a single, accessible universal washroom that would also include a change room for patients and clients. This would involve incorporating the adjacent storage room to create a larger, more functional space. * Conversion of RR367 into a dedicated CoRS PhD and student research space, including updates to flooring, paint, lighting, and blinds, turning the two private offices into meeting spaces and the larger space as a place where research can be conducted. * Transformation of RR327 into a flexible storage and lunchroom space for RR3 occupants. * Refresh of the RR339 lounge area to create an open, bookable meeting space. As part of this process, I will be reaching out to individuals who have previously used some of these spaces to help identify and relocate any personal or departmental items. I just wanted to provide this heads-up so you're aware of the direction we're moving in and to expect some increased activity in the area as plans develop. More details will be shared as timelines and next steps are confirmed. In the meantime, please feel free to reach out to me and Jacquie if you have any questions.

Hello RR3 residents: We are happy to see that some of you are using a wheelchair to assist your clients/participants who have mobility issues on RR3. The CoRS/EPIC lab wheelchairs are stored in RR302 for inventory purposes and to ensure faculty and CoRS techs can easily locate them when required. Could we ask that you please return it to RR302 after you’re done - and please continue using the chairs when you require them 😊. Regards Ed Giesbrecht

Wheelchair training on RR3 on March 12
by Edward Giesbrecht 10 Feb '26

10 Feb '26

Hello residents of RR3: This is an advance notice that we will be holding the annual MPT wheelchair skills training lab on RR3 on March 12th from 08:00 - 12:00. During this training session the students will practicing wheelchair skills as a large group and this is unavoidably a very noisy activity. The lab is conducted primarily in RR367 and RR345, but we also use the hallways throughout RR3 to practice skills throughout the morning. While we advise the students to be careful around pedestrians, I would recommend you remain alert if you are moving around the hallways. You may want to consider alternatives to being onsite during that morning as it will be much noisier and congested than typical on RR3. We appreciate your understanding and patience. If you have graduate students or research assistants working on RR3 we would appreciate you sharing this information with them as well. If you have questions please let me know, and if not please don’t feel obliged to respond to this email. Regards Ed Giesbrecht, PhD, BMR (OT) (He/Him) Senior Scholar Department of Occupational Therapy, College of Rehabilitation Sciences The University of Manitoba campuses and research spaces are located on original lands of Anishinaabeg, Ininiwak, Anisininewuk, Dakota Oyate, Dene and Inuit, and on the National Homeland of the Red River Métis.

We acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past and the present.
