SCF Barrhead

In 2007 Shepherd’s Care opened a 43 unit, single level supportive living (SL4) building in Barrhead.  Forty of the units are funded through Alberta Health Services, and three are available on a private pay basis for those not assessed as being eligible for SL4 funded through Alberta Health System.  Two of the rooms were developed, through a partnership with the Multiple Sclerosis Society, to meet the needs of individuals with a diagnosis of MS. 

Admission is through an assessment by Alberta Health Services, which funds the health care services provided.  Health services include 24-hour Licensed Practical Nursing, care attendants, on-call RN, and recreation.  Rehabilitation therapy and other health services are coordinated through Alberta Health Services.

Residents pay an accommodation charge which covers their room and board, housekeeping and laundry, and building maintenance costs.  All rooms are private accommodation.

Our residents love hearing from family and friends!  If you would like to e-mail one of our residents, please send your message to scfbhresident@shepherdscare.org and include your loved one's first and last name in the subject line.  We can also arrange for you to skype if you e-mail us at the same address requesting that a skype conversation be set up with your loved one.
