What is assisted living?
Assisted living is for residents who need help with the tasks of daily living, such as dressing, personal care and moving around safely. The care is provided in-house, by staff who work at the residence.
Residents keep their own suite and their own belongings, and families stay as involved as they wish. Meals, housekeeping, laundry and activities are all included.
24 hours a day
Who looks after residents?
Staff are on duty 24 hours a day, every day, with a minimum of two staff on duty at all times for emergency response. An on-site Director of Care works 40 hours a week [CONFIRM: whether the Director of Care is also on call for emergencies].

Working together
