Welcome to Our Home

Eatonville Care Centre is situated just across the street from the library, in a lovely neighbourhood in the heart of Etobicoke. This home has served our 247 multicultural residents since 1971. Centrally located, we are just minutes from Etobicoke City Hall and Highway 427.

 

Our team promote inclusion, independence and autonomy for all residents, and both residents and families praise our caregivers for their skill, warmth and compassion. We work as a team of families, physiotherapists, social workers, recreation therapists, dieticians, doctors and nurses to serve each individual.

 

Well-established programs such as restorative care, sensory stimulation, music and art therapy as well as Java Music and Montessori clubs enhance residents physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. The active Residents’ Council generates new ideas for bus trips and entertainment. Computers are provided for residents to Skype with families living anywhere in the world. Our courtyard features seating and a walking path for exercise and enjoyment for all.

 

Visit us today. Enjoy a home-cooked meal in a clean, friendly environment, and make our home yours. If you can’t join us in person, then please enjoy our virtual walkthrough.

Person Centred Living Philosophy

At Eatonville Care Centre, we recognize and value each resident as an individual, with unique strengths and preferences, and as a citizen with rights and influence.

 

We place equal importance on the emotional, social, spiritual, and cultural well-being of residents, alongside their physical and mental well-being. Our environment is founded on kindness to ensure residents live with their self-defined dignity, autonomy, purpose and security. Our care and services are based on the best prevailing practice models.

 

We strive to create warm, welcoming home-like environments that are reflective of the residents’ preferences and personalities.

 

We encourage residents to set personal goals, to stay connected and active within, and outside, the home. As members of a collective community, we welcome external partners into the home to support the well-being of residents.​

 

Our approach to care services:

 

  • is interprofessional and collaborative, engaging residents, families, and team members in decision-making that reflects resident preferences and needs;

  • aims to maximize and maintain the independence of residents and includes the Restorative Care Philosophy;

  • values continuity of care and the Primary Care model: with meaningful and stable relationships between residents and team members across all roles.

 

At Eatonville Care Centre, we recognize and value each team member as a unique individual beyond their role and title.

 

Our team members work with dignity, autonomy, respect for diversity, individual choice, purpose and security while fostering kindness and mindfulness in all interactions.

 

We support their personal and professional growth through ongoing education, training and resources.

 

We encourage team members to share their stories and talents with residents to enhance meaningful interactions and build trust, whilst maintaining therapeutic boundaries.

 

We seek and value feedback from residents, team members and family to continually strengthen our commitment to ethical, person-centered living.

 

Our commitment to Person Centred Living aligns with our Vision, To create communities of trust and fulfilment for our team members and residents, our Mission, To live a culture of distinction through our commitment to the well-being of our team members and residents, our Values of Kindness, Integrity, Progressive, and Community and finally our mantra of Connected Through Kindness.

Residents' Council

The Resident Council is made up of and represents all of the residents in our Home. The Council serves as a vehicle through which residents maintain a degree of control over their lives, share in the management of the Home and thereby contribute to the welfare of all involved.

​

The Council meets on a regular basis. During these meetings residents can voice their concerns or address any other issues. This forum allows residents the opportunity to network, share information and keep abreast of any new or upcoming changes happening in the Home.

 

Residents’ Council meets on the first Wednesday of every month at 3:00pm. Meeting minutes are posted in each Home area..

​

Family Council

This is a wonderful opportunity for families/friends to meet in a relaxed atmosphere to discuss issues related to having a loved one in the Home. The Family Council is an organized, self-led group with the Social Services Coordinator providing support and guidance. The Family Council provides mutual support, advocacy, educational programs, activity sponsorship and offers the chance to give feedback to the Home. We invite and encourage participation in our Family Council!

​

Meeting notices are communicated to all families and are posted on the Family Council Board along with the minutes from the previous meeting.

​

Family Council meets quarterly on the third Thursday of the month at 1:00pm.
