Care Homes 

Each home has a specific care objective or “Care Theme”.  Environment plays a huge role in providing quality care. Every aspect of the home is specially designed to ensure the function of the home allows for the care objectives to be met.  All of our homes feature a unique ambience and are designed around a specific care objective. With our Care Themes, our care model allows for “one of a kind” personalized care. Applicants have the ability to choose which Care Theme suits them best including memory care.

Memory Care

Our Memory Care Homes feature an enhanced care setting that accommodates as much independence as possible. Our specialized interior design provides a safe environment that our members can feel comfortable in. The small care setting allows for individualized care, and one on one attention. Reminders are placed throughout the home to allow members the chance to use their memory before being assisted. Seminars, and Workshops are tailored to help increase memory and help to decrease the symptoms of dementia.

Respite and Overnight Care

Our Overnight Respite Care provides caregivers a temporary rest from caregiving, while the person with Alzheimer’s continues to receive care in a safe environment. With overnight care, you are able to take an extended break or vacation while your loved one can experience our healing home, and benefit from all of the healing amenities. Overnight relief can help to rejuvenate your mind and body by giving you an extended break, while providing you with practical support needed in order to make time for yourself.

Registered Day Programs 

Our registered day programs offer full time caregivers a much deserved break. Our Day Programs offer your loved one an opportunity to be social and participate in activities such as Music & Art Therapy, Movement Classes, Behavioural Therapy Activities and more. In our experience, scheduled programs help to reduce the symptoms of wandering, incontinence, hallucinations, sexually inappropriate behavior or speech difficulties. Our Day Programs include nutritious snacks and meals while attendees enjoy specialized activities.
