Our friendly and dedicated staff pride themselves on delivering care that reflects each person’s unique needs and preferences. Our Private Supportive Living environment is designed to make you feel comfortable and worry-free so you can focus on the daily activities that bring you happiness, such as delicious and nutritious meals, staff-accompanied walks along nearby river pathways to Peace Bridge, or an evening of musical entertainment. We offer a variety of well-appointed suite layouts with lovely river and downtown views, including studio, one- and two-bedroom suites.

But what truly sets us apart is our long-standing team of staff, higher staff-to-resident ratios, as well as a robust team of visiting health care professionals, including daily physician visits, occupational therapists and weekly social workers.

Visits are made even more convenient thanks to our free heated underground parking. We also invite you stay for a meal when you come to visit, as you’ll enjoy a menu that our residents love, thanks to the inclusion of a variety of fresh produce, seasonal flavours and from-scratch meals prepared by our Red Seal Chef.

Designated Supportive Living — How to apply

Our retirement community also offers Designated Supportive Living (DSL) suites for seniors in need of 24-hour assisted living services. Memory care suites (DSL4D) are also available in a secure neighbourhood of our community for seniors living with dementia. Staff are trained in dementia support to help residents live each day in contentment and comfort, and residents also benefit from our WanderGuard bracelet technology for enhanced freedom to safely explore surroundings.

DSL and DSL4D suites are partially subsidized by the government; however, applications, assessments and eligibility are managed by Alberta Health Services.
