Forest
Valley Terrace is a unique retirement residence specializing
in dementia care. Different levels of care are available
which are tailored to meet each individual's requirements.
Forest Valley Terrace has been designed to offer a variety
of features to meet the needs of a specialized clientele.
Is
there a lease agreement?
Each resident's
responsible party is required to sign a residency agreement
which clearly outlines the terms and conditions of a resident's
stay. The agreement reflects the stipulations of the Tenant
Protection Act and can be terminated on 30 days notice.
Are
all the rooms the same size and price?
There are
a variety of room sizes on each floor and the price varies
accordingly. All rooms are equipped with fire sprinklers and
rooms can be decorated to suit each resident's taste.
What
activities are available?
A program
director is on staff to organize activities. Our recreation
programs are adapted to stimulate cognitive, physical, social
and emotional needs and are geared towards each resident's
requirements wherever possible. A hair salon, laboratory service,
foot care clinic (manicure and pedicure), a dental care program
and an eye doctor program are available at additional cost.
What
does the monthly rate include?
The monthly
rate includes three nutritious meals a day with specialized
diets accommodated as required. The menus change on a four
week cycle and are rotated on a seasonal basis. Snacks are
also available three times daily. As well, we provide laundry
and housekeeping services, nursing staff are on duty around
the clock and activities are scheduled daily.
Is
smoking permitted?
Our preference
is to operate a non-smoking building. However, a resident
who wishes to smoke can be accommodated.
What
happens if the required care level increases?
If we determine
that more care is necessary, we will consult with the resident's
responsible party and family physician. Our management team
will detail the available options and services.
Is
guest accommodation available?
We welcome
guests and want them to feel as comfortable as possible. For
convenience, arrangements for overnight accommodation and
meals can be made in advance. Friends and family are welcome
at any time and are encouraged to participate in the resident's
activities.
If after
viewing our residence you would like to consider placing
your family member at Forest Valley Terrace for a short
trial period, we would be pleased to accommodate you and
provide you with the information and advice on the various
options that might helping in making a final decision.
