The community
A new standard for seniors care in Calgary
This is not your typical community. Masterfully designed AgeCare Walden Heights is a modern, amenity-rich community covering 7 acres of land, including 1.6 acres of tranquil parks and open spaces. Our vision for AgeCare Walden Heights is to create a vibrant, multi-generational community where seniors are the focus.
Designed with our residents in mind
Each floor in AgeCare Walden Heights has approximately 40 private resident rooms. The wings on each floor extend from a central space that has a dining room with a servery, a TV lounge, a quiet lounge and outside balcony. At the end of the wing, there is a quiet lounge with a large exterior window allowing for plenty of natural light. Each floor has a spa room for residents who prefer (or require) a nice soak in a specialized spa tub, designed for this resident population. Carpeting throughout to ensure the community has that homey feeling our residents really love.
Amenities
The ground floor has many common amenities. Centrally located are a Hair Salon, Private Family Dining Room, and a large recreation area. The open floor plan is nicely separated by an aquarium-encased wall. A large section of this floor faces the outdoor courtyard allowing natural light in and an opportunity for residents to admire the view.
The design of all of these spaces has been carefully thought through from a resident enjoyment perspective, as well as functionality.
Activities to promote health & wellness
The need to stay active, intellectually stimulated and socially connected never ends. Our recreation team works hard to design engaging activities and programs to ensure our residents experience the best quality of life possible.
Programming at AgeCare Walden Heights is designed to enrich the mind, body, and spirit. Residents are free to choose their own level of activity – from calm and relaxing to active and energetic.
So many ways to fill the days
Activities and programs at AgeCare Walden Heights are constantly evolving so please take the time to view our most recent activities calendar posted in our news and events section.
Programming is tailored to our residents’ needs and capabilities. Through these programs, residents continue to pursue interests, develop new skills, enhance their self-esteem and build rewarding relationships with other residents, staff, and volunteers. For our memory care and dementia care residents, we provide specialized programs and activities, some of which are designed to help them rediscover old skills.
