WINNIPEG, MB: Bergen Gardens, a progressive North Kildonan assisted living facility, uses a unique citizenship model for senior care that ensures residents are positioned as valued community members. Regardless of the type and level of care they require, all individuals living at the complex are invited to communicate their needs and opinions in order to actively participate in planning their lives.
Located at 1475 Molson Street in Winnipeg, Bergen Gardens is a state-of-the-art assisted living facility with 149 assisted living suites and 48 private memory suites grouped within 12-unit cottages. Rooted in the philosophy that seniors reach their highest potential when they are able to maintain meaningful connections with nature, pets, and loved ones, it fosters a culture of creativity, choice, and well-being for its residents. Bergen Gardens’ biophilic design includes a fitness centre, activity room, cinema, reading room, greenhouse and garden, culinary and wellness services, and town square with a wide range of accessible amenities. Every structure and design element has been thoughtfully selected to contribute to and promote physical, mental, and spiritual wellness.
Bergen Gardens is modelled on a person-centred care approach that involves community members in making decisions about their daily lives. This process includes opportunities to openly communicate opinions and needs, collaborate with others, and participate in developing individualized frameworks for achieving wellness goals. It also involves ensuring that residents are supported in finding the right care at the right time with the right healthcare professional or team, in the right place, and in the right way, according to their personal wishes.
“At Bergen Gardens, we actively invite residents to participate in planning their lives,” said Lisa Martens, Executive Director of the facility. “They have the autonomy to decide how they want to participate in the community and to know that their voice is heard and valued. Every day, we are re-imaging what it means to access quality health care while living in this community.”
