Health Services

Our goal is to deliver outstanding personalized care and service

At the Harold & Grace Baker Centre, our residents are at the heart of everything we do. We are committed to helping seniors live life to the fullest by providing them with choices to meet their unique personal care preferences.

Our goal is to deliver outstanding personalized care and service. Registered staff work with every Baker Centre resident to conduct a LiveBetter™ Care and Service assessment which is used to develop a personal plan that is reviewed on a regular basis.

LiveBetter™ is our easy to understand and manage care program that allows residents and their families to customize care needs by choosing only those care options desired and needed.

The LiveBetter™ care plan respects and responds to individual needs. Our approach is to work collaboratively with residents and families to achieve success.

Person-centred care promotes safety, quality and continuous improvement of services. We offer a full range of care options and focus on finding solutions that our residents need and desire.

To help our residents keep living well, the Baker Centre offers the LiveBetter™ Personalized Care Program as well as a number of signature Extendicare programs:

Montessori Programs

A progressive, personalized approach that enables residents with memory loss to function at their best.

Personalized Care Program

LiveBetter™ provides care themes around areas such as Nutrition, Medication, Mobility, Bathing, Continence and Personal Assistance. Each theme has varying levels of assistance that allows for a personalized approach to care. You choose only those areas where assistance is required or desired.

Falls Intervention and Risk Management

FIRM offers practical and effective strategies and methods to reduce the risk of falls.

*The nature of the programs may vary, but all are about supporting residents to live their life to the fullest.

Dining
