Welcome to Our Home

Hawthorne Place Care Centre is located near Finch Avenue West and Highway 400. This long term care home opened in 1973, and over the years has established many strong relationships with the community. We are just steps away from local restaurants and shopping centres, and we are proud to say we partner with Humber River Regional Hospital on Finch Avenue.

Our home serves 215 multicultural residents and prides itself on providing excellent care and specialty programs such as convalescent, Java Music Club and Montessori. Our convalescent care program has 34 residents and its multi-disciplinary team specializes in restorative care with a separate dedicated physiotherapy team.

​

A variety of recreation programs keep our residents independent, active and entertained. Residents can enjoy music therapy, monthly outings and weekly Italian cooking.

Person Centred Living Philosophy

At Hawthorne Place 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 Hawthorne Place 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 third Wednesday of every month at 10:00am in the Activity Room. Meeting minutes are available at Reception.

For further information regarding Residents’ Council, visit the Ontario Association of Residents’ Councils website:

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 on the second Tuesday of every month at 6:00pm in the large Activity Room on the first floor.
