 At
AON long-term care homes, our staff is dedicated to providing services
that will enable you to live your life to the fullest. With aging comes
increasing frailties and new challenges. We understand that. It is our role to
provide a supportive environment that ensures the maximum
independence, dignity and wellness of every one of our residents.
Individual Choices
Our commitment is to treat every one of our residents as an individual
and with this in mind we tailor programs to meet specific needs. We believe that each
resident
has the right to make
decisions about their own care and we encourage individual control over the
choices encountered in daily life. Our emphasis is on the self-direction and the dignity of
each resident, regardless of their physical condition.
Holistic Care
Our team of professionals provides a wide range of services to care for
the whole person - mind, body and spirit. "Wellness" is more than just
attending to physical care needs, it means fulfilling emotional and
spiritual needs as well. We emphasize what our residents can do—and what they choose to do—in
striving to achieve the maximum level of independence and wellness.
We Are At Your Service
The following are some of the many services and programs you will find at
AON long-term care homes. Give us a call or drop in for a visit if
you wish further information. We will be pleased to show you and your family
all that we have to offer.
Nursing Support
We have experienced nursing staff on duty 24 hours per day to ensure
 our
residents' health and well-being. Our care team includes Registered Nurses,
Registered Practical Nurses and Personal Support Workers who follow the
professional standards of practice of the College of Nurses of Ontario. We
administer medications and treatments as ordered by physicians, coordinate
therapy services, and provide assistance with the activities of daily
living, including bathing, dressing, and hygiene.
Our staff is always right around the
corner. Each room has an emergency "call system" to enhance safety and
security. In addition, our care teams are assigned to specific
"houses" so that they become familiar with our residents, including their
care needs and the rhythms of their daily lives. Our staff will also offer
counseling and support to residents and their families regarding changing
health conditions. We will work closely with you and your family to
determine the amount of care you require.
Medical Care
For added convenience, residents may use one of our advisory physicians
who visit our homes each week. Routine lab tests, blood tests and some x-ray
assessments are arranged on-premises for your convenience. All prescription
drugs are coordinated through our nursing staff and are delivered daily.
Dementia Care
AON long term care homes provide a wide range of care services,
including complex health care and dementia care. One of our four home-areas
is dedicated to providing a comfortable and safe environment for those who
require our specialized "Heritage Program".

Foot Care
We offer foot care on site at our long term care homes to enhance
our residents quality of life, wellness and to prevent future problems.
A certified foot care nurse will provide both basic or advanced foot
care after a professional assessment. Not only is this an important
service for our residents, it actually feels great too! Professional fees only apply.
Wellness Services
We organize a variety of on-site therapy services to enhance the wellness of
our residents and to preserve their independence.
 Individual
or group programs are arranged depending upon needs. Therapy programs such
as physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy are provided by
our staff or accessed through Home Care. Some additional "spa" services are
also available on-site, including hair salon (or barber), foot care, massage
therapy and health education. Standard professional fees apply.
At AON Long Term Care homes, we
focus on the individual.
