The residential care unit provides round-the-clock support for older clients with mental health and substance use needs. Staff include practical and registered nurses, with a supervisor present at night. Weekly activities include exercise, baking, crafts, music, films and discussion.
Each resident has a personal caregiver to plan and monitor care, with relatives welcome to participate. Residents help with household chores according to their abilities and have laundry facilities, a yard, a large balcony and sauna sessions. A doctor visits about every three weeks. Dental hygiene, physiotherapy, hairdressing and foot care can also be arranged.
