Visitors are welcome to DROP-IN if you enter the building during our new ENTRY TIMES. Entry Times reflect the hours screeners are present.

One exception is for family and friends visiting a resident at end-of-life. You may come to the centre at any time and use the buzzer to enter the building after hours.

Masking Reminder

CapitalCare continues to follow Chief Medical Officer of Health (CMOH) orders to protect the vulnerable people in our care. Visitors, volunteers, service providers, entertainers, and anyone entering our buildings must continue to:​

• Be screened.
• Wear a mask in common areas
• Perform hand hygiene
• Maintain physical distancing.

Visitors may take part in recreation activities provided they:

• refrain from eating and drinking
• stay with their loved one
• not be assisting with serving or assisting other residents at this time.  

Unless a centre or neighbourhood is on outbreak, visitors can remove masks in private rooms or private visiting areas. In a shared room situation, the other resident/patient(s) must consent before a visitor can remove a mask and physical distancing of two metres must be maintained.

Virtual Visits

If you need assistance to facilitate a virtual visit, please connect with the Coordinator of Volunteer Services at your centre or a recreation team member.

Norwood is located in central Edmonton, across from the Royal Alexandra Hospital and beside the Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital. Once a traditional long-term care centre with 205 beds, Norwood now offers a mix of programs which include post-acute care, a palliative hospice and complex long-term care in an environment that supports choice, autonomy and, where possible, independence.  Norwood's specialized programs are:

Alternative Level of Care:

• For individuals with stable medical conditions who no longer require treatment in acute care, but require further assessment to determine the optimal living option (home care, supportive living or long-term care).

 Chronic Ventilator Unit (Red Eagle Ridge):

• For individuals with significant chronic illness and complex health needs who require ventilation.
• Health team includes 24-hour Respiratory Therapists to support ventilator care.

Restorative Care:

• Support for individuals, often frail seniors, who wish to return to their home/community after an acute episode which required hospitalization.
• Provides continued rehabilitation, clinical care and discharge planning to ensure a successful return to home.

Post-Acute Care:

• For individuals with significant but stable medical conditions who require an extended period of recovery following the acute phase of a surgery, illness or accident.
• Provides continued rehabilitation, clinical care and discharge planning to ensure a successful return to home.

Acquired Brain Injury Unit (North Horizons):

• Provides a safe and secure environment for individuals with spontaneous and unpredictable behaviors that are the outcome of an accident or injury to the brain.

Palliative Hospice

• Provides compassionate end-of-life care for individuals whose disease/health condition no longer responds to treatment.
• For more information on palliative and end-of-life care visit the Provincial Palliative and End-of-Life Care website.
