Choosing the Right Type of Living
At our various residences across Western Canada, Optima Living provides Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Supportive Living communities, as well as Memory Care options. Choosing the right care can seem like a daunting task, and there are many unknowns to deal with. But the team at Optima Living can help provide some guidance.
Independent Living
Independent living is for seniors who are able to live on their own, but want the convenience of community living.
Memory Care
A form of specialized care that caters to residents with Alzheimer’s disease or other related dementias and memory concerns. The Optima Living Memory Care Neighbourhoods, such as the one in Aster Gardens, are shaped by the Optima Living Memory Care Program which draws on experience, clinical best practice, and evidence-informed research.
Assisted and Supportive Living
Assisted and Supportive living is Independent living with supports available if needed, such as the provision of inclusive meals and housekeeping. It is home-like care that provides personal and medical assistance for seniors while prioritizing their independence.
