Opened in 2005, Kensington Cottage has 38
supportive living (SL4-D) suites to serve
the needs of people diagnosed with mid-stage dementia who require a safe and
secure environment. Programming is specific to the needs of the
residents, with a focus on quality-of-life and person-centred care with specially
trained staff who understand the needs of those with dementia.
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 Registered Nurse, and
recreation. Rehabilitation therapy and other health services are
coordinated through Alberta
Health Services.
Shepherd’s Care provides pastoral care services to all residents.
All rooms are private studio accommodation.
A guest room is available for out-of-town visitors, and there is a private bus
for resident out trips. Residents pay an accommodation charge which covers
room and board (3 meals per day plus snacks), housekeeping, laundry
and building maintenance costs. Building amenities include an
auditorium, on-site clinics, outdoor patios, a beauty salon, gift shop and
banking.
"Our family is so pleased to
have Mom in Kensington Cottage. It is small enough to be warm and
