With a selection of room sizes and all-inclusive pricing it is easy to determine monthly costs without unexpected service fees. For those residents who require additional support, Victoria House offers two levels of Assisted Living programs. These programs are tailored to meet the needs of each resident based on an individualized care plan. This may include routine safety checks, daily bed making and reminders for mealtimes and appointments. A more comprehensive program could include assistance with personal hygiene, dressing, showering, incontinent care, toileting, and assistance with safe transfers.
