A pro about this would be; I made eye contact with the employer.
A con; the sound isn't very loud and as well I talked a bit too fast.

Research a Company


From researching the company Revera, I have found the following information that I found to be quite interesting. Below I have made points as well citing the information.

1. Students feel that music and recreational activities play a role in overall health and well-being of the residents in the homes.

2. Nursing homes like Revera include nonprofits, municipalities, and private companies.

3. As well in the same article I found that they are licensed, controlled, amd partially funded by provincial governments. And the maximum price for homes in Ontario can be $2,162 per month.
