Nightingale Manor offers personalized and professional care to Level I and Level II residents.
Interested residents are assessed by a registered nurse or social worker to determine the level of care required before moving into a personal care home. The level of care is determined on a personalized basis and is based on an individuals ability to care for themselves on a daily basis. Individuals who are mobile and active, can bath and dress themselves, and take care of their basic needs with little assistance, would be considered a Level I resident. Individuals with physical disabilities (such as sight or hearing impairment), those who use aids for mobility (such as a walker or wheelchair), and those who require assistance with dressing or bathing would be considered a Level II resident.
Nightingale Manor provides care for each resident 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We provide assistance with medications, dressing and bathing, housekeeping and laundry services. We serve 3 home-cooked meals and 2 lunches daily. An activities coordinator provides games and activities from Monday to Friday tailored to the residents various capabilities to participate. We have special occasion parties and movie days as well.

Staying active and vital makes every day worth living. Nightingale Manor offers plenty of opportunities to meet people and make the most of everyday. We enjoy watching our residents strike up friendships with their neighbors, sharing old memories and making new ones. Nightingale Manor has an activities coordinator who will work with the residents to plan activities to keep them active. Activities are planned each week and participation is optional. All residents are encouraged to participate and suggestions are always welcome. A variety of programs are offered including bingo, music, movies and crafts.
The residents’ rooms are cleaned on a daily basis. All clothing is washed weekly.
We serve 3 home-cooked meals daily plus snacks. Our menus are assessed and approved by the Consultant Dietitian with Central Health to ensure the menu is nutritionally adequate. If a resident has special dietary requirements, the Consultant Dietitian will help us meet their needs.
Once a month we have a birthday party to celebrate all residents celebrating birthdays that month. We also celebrate special occasions. This could include a Canada Day barbeque, or a Christmas Party with live entertainment.
Our goal is to ensure you are as comfortable as possible in your new home. We believe strongly in the benefits of personalizing residents rooms. Residents may complement existing furnishings with some of their own treasured possessions (i.e.) a favorite easy chair, television, lamp, radio, pictures, ornaments, plants, and books.
