South Ridge Village
Description
South Ridge Village offers seniors multiple levels of support and the opportunity to age in place with 70 private continuing care suites, each with a private bathroom including a wheelchair accessible shower. All suites are furnished with a hospital style bed, night table, dresser and side chair. Residents are encouraged to bring some of their own belongings to personalize their room.
There are also three 10-bed dementia care cottages at South Ridge Village; 10 of the beds are continuing care, 10 of the beds are designated supportive living dementia and 10 of the beds are private supportive living dementia. Our dementia cottages are unique duplexes designed to create a home-like setting for up to 10 dementia clients in each cottage. Each side of the duplex has 5 bedrooms, living room with fireplace, kitchen, and secure access to the fenced yard. Clients are included in the events of daily living to the extent that they are accustomed and able.
The care component of the dementia care program is based more on a social rather than a medical model of care. Personal autonomy and competencies are emphasized. Residents can participate in daily activities associated with a home-like environment. These kinds of opportunities are difficult, if not impossible, to offer in large care centres.
