80 Complex Care Suites
Three 10-Bed Dementia Care Cottages
Nestled in a beautifully landscaped setting close to numerous services and amenities, Wexford Creek offers 40 one-bedroom private independent and assisted living suites for seniors. Residents can remain as independent as they wish with a service menu to choose from.
Each suite is 550 sq. ft. and is carpeted in the bedroom and living room with vinyl flooring in all other areas. There is plenty of storage space and all suites are equipped with a full size refrigerator and stove/range.
To arrange for a tour, please call Rhondda Sellars at (250) 713-1696.
Wexford Creek also has 80 private complex care suites that feature a private bathroom and wheelchair accessible shower. The complex care program is intended for seniors that can no longer be supported independently in the community and require 24-hour professional care.
Admissions are coordinated through the Community Care Services division of Vancouver Island Health Authority (250) 755-6229.
The dementia care cottages at Wexford Creek are housed in three duplexes. Each duplex has 10 bedrooms, a kitchen, dining room, two living rooms with fireplace, secure access to a fenced courtyard, and bathing and laundry rooms. This is a licensed complex care facility.
The care component of the dementia care program is based more on a social rather than a medical model of care. Personal autonomy and competencies are emphasized. Residents can participate in daily activities associated with a home-like environment. These kinds of opportunities are difficult, if not impossible, to offer in large care centres.
Key elements of this model of care are:
- Creation of a familiar, home-like environment
- Combining privacy of accommodation with the security of around-the-clock staffing
- Use of familiar household routines for resident activities
- Staff serve as role models to engage residents in activities
Admissions are coordinated through the Community Care Services division of Vancouver Island Health Authority (250) 755-6229.
Additional amenities and common facilities include private dining room, chapel, multi-purpose room, dining rooms, lounges/living rooms, kitchen, laundry, recreation room, hairdressing room, large main entrance lobby with secure entrance system, reception area and large garden courtyard.
