Visiting
Family and friends are welcome to visit at any time.
Highview Residences has a Resident Hospitality Fee that covers the cost of guest meals, so family and friends can join their loved one for a meal as often as they like. Let us know when you are coming nad we will set a plate for you!
Our team are regularly planning family gatherings that include our Summer BBQ, Christmas together, and of course, any of the special events that happen throughout the year, like New Year’s, St. Patrick’s Day, Mother’s and Father’s Day, and Thanksgiving.
Care Services
At Highview, the definition of “care services” is broad and we do not have “levels of fees” based upon the care a Resident requires. Examples of some of the services covered by the all-inclusive monthly fee are cueing and/or assistance with:
- Bathing
- Personal hygiene
- Ambulation
- Feeding
- Dressing
- Continence care
- Administration of medications
- Providing of meals and snacks
- Dementia care specialized programming
These additional optional services may be obtained, at an additional cost:
- Dental hygienist
- Foot care
- Hairdressing
- Incontinence products (as needed)
- Laboratory services
- Medical supplies
- Mobile X-Ray
- Optometrist
- Physiotherapy
- Prescriptions
- Private cable TV and internet
- Private telephone
- Toiletries
It is recommended that Residents roster with the family physician at Highview. The exception would be if the Resident has a local GP who will make home visits.
Extra Care Fee ($800 monthly):
This fee comes into effect when a Resident becomes non-ambulatory, and requires a mechanical lift. The POA is advised, assessment provided, and change in care plan. No advance notice is required for the change to this monthly fee as per the criteria herein.
