Located on a secure floor of our brand-new retirement residence, Chartwell Wescott’s Memory Living Neighbourhood is a supportive and independent environment for seniors living with dementia.

Our unique, person-centred approach to memory care empowers our trained and caring staff to establish strong social connections with residents in order to foster trust and familiarity. We also partner with families to learn each person’s life history—all to better understand their story and form meaningful relationships.

To better support the families of our residents, we have a dedicated Social Worker on-site to provide orientation, facilitate family conferences and deliver counseling services if desired. Family members are encouraged to drop by any time to speak with our Memory Living Manager.

Chartwell Wescott’s Memory Living Neighbourhood includes the following specialized programs and services:

• Small resident-to-staff ratios
• Secure and interactive environment with 24-hour supervision, including access to outdoor space
• Specialized life-enrichment programming, dining with staff and group outings
• Flexible routines that balance structure with spontaneity
• Person-centred care plans reflective of residents’ unmet needs, abilities and interests
• Dedicated Memory Living Manager and Social Worker to support families

Chartwell Wescott’s Memory Living Neighbourhood is a safe and supportive home for seniors living with dementia, and also a resource for families who are looking for support, education and personal counselling services during and after a loved one’s transition to memory care.
