Independent Living
Independent Living is a lifestyle option that is ideal for active and independent seniors or individuals looking to downsize. Older adults who choose Independent Living appreciate not having to spend time and energy on the many tasks associated with homeownership, preferring an uncomplicated, worry-free lifestyle focused on the people and pursuits they love most.
Independent Living offers a combination of 24/7 staff support, engaging social, leisure and fitness opportunities, and a wide range of convenient services. These may include delicious meal options, housekeeping, laundry and much more.
For seniors seeking light care, support services are available through the province’s Home Care program. To qualify, an Alberta Health Services Case Manager completes an assessment, authorizes and funds scheduled home care for an individual at their retirement residence.

This lifestyle option is ideal for seniors who need significant help with their daily routine and customized care services that can help maintain or improve their comfort and quality of life. Services may include assistance with your morning or evening routine, assistance with bathing or showering, medication management, meal assistance and much more.
Typically, Designated Supportive Living services are available in dedicated neighbourhoods of a retirement residence and offer specialized dining and activities, including memory care services for seniors living with dementia.
