Care & Support Options at Chartwell Thunder Bay in Thunder Bay
We have two independent living options available: you’ll have complete independence and your own full kitchen in our senior townhomes, or you can choose one of our independent living suites in the main residence if you’d prefer to have access to care and support services.
Independent living is ideal for older adults who want to downsize while staying active and maintaining their independence. It’s an excellent choice if you would rather enjoy a social, relaxing lifestyle where you spend more time with the people and passions you love in a vibrant community, and less time pouring your energy into the daily, weekly, and annual responsibilities associated with home ownership. At Chartwell Thunder Bay, you can join your peers for delicious meals and snacks in our dining room, use the convenient on-site amenities, and join social gatherings and activities as you wish. Or you can simply enjoy informal socializing with your neighbours.
