- Each paralyzed resident receives a personalized care plan that is developed in collaboration with healthcare professionals, the resident, and their family members. These plans are tailored to address specific medical needs, mobility limitations, and personal preferences.
- Assistance with Daily Living Activities (ADLs):
- We offer extensive assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, and mobility assistance. Our caregivers are trained to provide sensitive and respectful care while promoting as much independence as possible.
- Pressure Ulcer Prevention and Wound Care:

We collaborate with physical therapists to develop personalized therapy programs that include range-of-motion exercises, muscle strengthening, and adaptive techniques to maximize independence.
- Accessibility and Adaptations:
- Our premises are designed to be fully accessible and barrier-free, with features such as ramps, wide doorways, handrails, and wheelchair-accessible bathrooms. We ensure that residents can navigate the environment safely and comfortably.
- Nutritional Support:
- Proper nutrition is essential for overall health and healing. Our chefs prepare nutritious meals that cater to dietary preferences and nutritional needs, ensuring residents receive balanced and appetizing meals that support their recovery and well-being.
- Psychosocial Support:
- Living with paralysis can impact emotional well-being. Our staff provides emotional support, counselling services, and opportunities for residents to participate in social activities and recreational therapies that promote mental stimulation and social interaction.
- Family Involvement and Communication:
- We encourage family involvement in the care and support of paralyzed residents. Regular communication, family meetings, and updates on care plans help ensure collaboration, understanding of individual needs, and continuity of care.
