Admission Day

Arrival time is 10:00 am with check in at the Main Reception. You will be welcomed by our Administrative Assistant and meet for approximately one hour to complete the financial paperwork, review the move in package and sign any applicable consents.

Once the documentation is completed you will meet with the Nurse so that we can gather medical information and fill out forms and consents. This will support us to provide the care you that you require. Please ensure that you bring all medications that you are currently taking (prescription and over-the-counter). This review will take approximately one hour to complete.

Clothing and personal items can be placed on the cart provided for housekeeping. We will label with your name and put items away in your room.

Maintenance staff will visit to inspect any electrical devices you have brought with you (i.e., lamps, televisions up to 32”) to ensure that those items are CSA approved.

We encourage our residents to bring personal items from home that will help them feel comfortable in their new environment.  Keep in mind not to overcrowd the room so that we can deliver safe and effective care and housekeeping can maintain a clean, clutter free room. Pictures or photographs may be displayed on the walls and the maintenance staff will install them. Personal chairs must be sturdy, stable and for infection control purposes be constructed with wipeable material such as leather or vinyl.  

Throughout the day, you will have the opportunity to meet staff and other residents. A staff member will take your picture for your medical record. Over the next few weeks you may receive visits from the Attending Physicians, Nurse Practitioner, Dietitian, Occupational Therapist, Physiotherapist and Recreation staff.
