Isolation Chronicles: Part Six

Isolation Chronicles: Part Six

My mom lives in rural Ontario approximately 3 hours north of Ottawa (where we live, feeling helpless to help her with what she needed). She is in isolation, as are we, and doesn't have the luxury of many stores nearby (none in fact, closest being about 30 min away). Groceries under the best of times are a thought-out event for Mom, let alone during a pandemic!

With bad asthma, we didn't want her to go out needlessly even for necessities. I contacted Jan's Valumart to see if there was anything they could do.

They responded within minutes of my request, professionally and efficiently. The store was well stocked and had almost everything Mom needed AND they delivered to her (30 minutes away!) Contactless! Less than a few days later. WOW .. talk about taking care of your community.

It was easy to pay with credit card over the phone, and her and her team were wonderful to deal with. Unsung heroes during these times of need.

I was astonished by the care and attention given to my request. Thank you, Jan!
