my local church and
friends and still receive
the care I need. Due to the kindness, help and
encouragement from the
staff, I have graduated
from a wheelchair to a
walker. I attend exercises
and love to play bridge
and bingo. "

Wellness
Our focus on wellness provides the residents of Erin Mills Lodge Long Term Care with the opportunity to improve and/or maintain their physical and functional capacities. Residents can participate in a supervised exercise program that can restore certain aspects of their physical abilities after events that have occurred such as hip or knee replacement. The residents can also use the supervised exercise program to improve their health, so as to prevent other possible health problems from developing.
Our physiotherapist, massage therapist and restorative care aides work to provide a structured program to maintain and improve physical capacity and comfort.
The benefits derived from this program can be divided into two categories:
- objective, which includes higher energy levels, improved posture, physical strength and mobility
- subjective, which includes improved mental health, confidence and self esteem, along with decreased stress and anxiety levels
