CapitalCare Lynnwood is located in Edmonton's west end and is home to 276 long-term care residents. Lynnwood staff use a person-centred approach to create an engaging environment where staff support residents’ interests, abilities, and independence.
Lynnwood’s unique spaces include a garden atrium, a pub and multiple recreation areas throughout the centre where residents and families can spend time. Staff and volunteers work to create social activities and events based on resident interests.
Lynnwood has several neighbourhoods specializing in dementia care and supports for residents with physical limitations.
The Lynnwood campus is also home to Laurier House Lynnwood, a supportive living life lease program, and McConnell Place West, which provides a small, home-like setting designed specifically for the support of people with mid-stage dementia.
In addition to long-term care, Lynnwood offers the following specialized programs:
Transition Neighbourhood:
The transition neighbourhood supports the timely discharge of patients from acute care by providing the necessary social work support to resolve complex financial, guardianship or trusteeship issues to ensure patients can move to the best living option that meets their care needs.
Enhanced Support Program
This neighbourhood supports people with medical and complex psychiatric needs to have the best quality of life possible. Enhanced staffing levels exist to provide adequate oversight to address and support the psychiatric needs of residents.
Lynnwood is also home to the Enhanced Support Program for men 18 years and older. This specialized program provides a secure environment for men who exhibit responsive behaviours. The interdisciplinary team work together to create a care environment that settles behaviours with the goal of returning residents to a traditional long-term care setting.
