Activities & programs

Recreation Therapists and assistants lead a range of programs tailored to a younger LTC population. Music therapy, trishaw cycling, coping skills groups, and therapeutic social programs are offered on both floors.

Resident Councils on both floors meet bi-monthly, and a Family Council meets quarterly, fostering active collaboration between residents, families, and staff.

Meals are served in central dining rooms on each floor, guided by a resident-driven Food Committee and supported by a Dietary Manager and Registered Dietitians. The menu accommodates cultural diets and texture-modified options. A Pleasurable Dining philosophy shapes each meal experience. Meal tray service is available for residents who are unwell. Scroll notification systems replace audible call bells in both dining rooms to support a calm atmosphere.
