Frequently Asked Questions
What types of interdisciplinary care teams are typically involved in long-term care communities?
Our long term care team often includes nurses, healthcare aides, dietitians, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, social workers, and the recreation team – all working together to support residents’ physical, emotional, and social well-being. Many communities also have visiting doctors who provide regular medical oversight and consultations.
How do long-term care communities handle advanced care planning and end-of-life decisions with residents and families?
Our care teams engaged residents and families in thoughtful conversations about future care wishes, including advance directives and end-of-life preferences. These discussions help ensure care aligns with the resident’s values and choices.
How do long-term care communities support family caregivers and integrate them into ongoing care?
Families are viewed as partners in care. Our team offers regular updates, family meetings, and opportunities for involvement in care planning, ensuring caregivers feel informed, supported, and connected.
What is the eligibility process for accessing government-funded long-term care in Alberta or BC?
Eligibility typically starts with an assessment by a health authority case manager who evaluates medical needs and daily living capabilities. If eligible, the resident is enrolled by the provincial health authority to move into a suitable long-term care community. Some communities also offer private pay options for immediate occupancy, depending on availability.
Is the price going to increase if my care needs change?
Optima Living communities offer transparent, all-inclusive care packages, so you won’t face unexpected financial surprises if your care needs increase. Any changes to care service are discussed in advance, ensuring clarity and peace of mind.
Can residents in long-term care access outdoor spaces?
