Making a radical change to one’s life is always to some degree a destabilizing experience. If you’ve decided to move into a retirement home, you may be feeling uncertain and anxious. For those who suffer from Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia, these feelings of uncertainty and anxiety are often exacerbated by their condition. If you’re looking for retirement living options in the Ottawa area, you should know that we at Billings Lodge Retirement Community take special care to welcome those with dementia or Alzheimer’s. Here’s just a little more information about the special considerations that go into Alzheimer’s care in a retirement home in Ottawa.

Billings Lodge is a retirement home in Ottawa and we pride ourselves on our ability to create an environment that provides for the physical, emotional, and social needs of seniors—particularly those who have dementia. At Billings Lodge, we design our individual plans with a continuum of care in mind. That means that we view health as not simply a matter of diagnoses and treatments, but a complete lifestyle in which every aspect of one’s well being is addressed at whatever stage of life you’ve reached. We not only try to provide for seniors’ health, but also their emotional needs.
