Welcome to
Burnbrae Gardens

Burnbrae Gardens is a licensed and accredited long-term care residence. This 43 bed home with 24 ward, 16 semi private and 3 private rooms is  located just outside the town of Campbellford. Emergency medical services are minutes away at the Campbellford  Memorial  Hospital.

Our staff provides compassionate, supportive and professional care and services. Our Behaviour Management Specialist offers leadership and support to staff and families concerning the individualized care of residents with Alzheimer's disease or dementia.

Our commitment to education provides our staff with the knowledge to ensure each resident  receives  care that respects  their individuality and preference.

Our modern, single-level home is designed for residents comfort and provides easy access to all areas.  Bedrooms - private and shared - are spacious and attractively decorated and feature en-suite bathrooms. Corridors are wide and accommodating. Residents can socialize and enjoy visits with family and friends in our comfortable fireplace lounge. They can also enjoy a breath of fresh air in our therapeutic gardens, which feature raised flowerbeds and a specially designed wandering path. Our residents enjoy recreation programs, including summer barbecues, musical entertainment, plays, bingo, in-home shopping, and pizza and movie nights. Television, music, videos, library facilities and the aviarium featuring tropical birds provide residents with many choices.

Burnbrae Gardens enjoys strong community support. Based on our belief that residents continue to be valued citizens, we encourage them to take part in the life of Campbellford and invite people to become involved in our home. Our outings include visits to the Sandy Flats sugar bush, local farms and antique car shows, as well as shopping and fishing trips. An annual highlight is lunch at Elmhirst Resort followed by a leisurely boat cruise on Rice Lake. Our dedicated volunteers add much to the good times we have at summer barbecues, annual bazaars, shopping excursions, holiday dinners and celebrations. Children, local entertainers and clergy visit us regularly.

Our residents are valued members of our home's management team. Our Residents Council provides the opportunity for residents and their family members to  participate in planning and evaluating the services in the home and supports a strong line of communication between residents and administration.

Letter:
Finding a home
for Mother...

My wife and I would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude and appreciation on the way you and your staff have made my mother feel so much at home at Burnbrae.

It comes the time in everyone's life that the family has to make the decision for one of their loved ones to be placed in  a Long Term Care Home.

In January of 2000, Shirley and I began combing the area searching for what we felt would be a proper establishment for Mother, where she would be content and well taken care of.  After viewing more than 40 Nursing Homes, we were directed to Burnbrae Gardens.  We stepped inside the door and knew this was going to be the right place.

Mother moved in mid March of 2000, being able to bring a lot of her personal items with her, making her room look like home.

Your staff, from Nursing to Housekeeping, and Kitchen Staff have been tremendous, not only in the performance of their position but also in the love and concern that they show to all the residents. 

Sincerely,
John & Shirley Houck
