Long term care with a voice and a choice
We walk the talk of living our mission statement: that is, to “strive to provide enriched life experiences to seniors through innovation and creativity. “ Our organization’s vision inspires our staff to be committed to “enriching the lives of those we serve by allowing our residents a “Voice and a Choice.” This has created a culture that integrates dignity, respect and empathy in delivering quality care.
We provide our care with a focus on person-centered care, using our document “The Resident’s Day,” which was recognized as a Leading Practice by Accreditation Canada. We have strong ties to the Burnaby Ismaili Centre Community. Staff speaks: Finnish, Tagalog, Chinese, Hindi, Punjabi and Japanese.
