Public Dementia Village opens in Comox, B.C.

 


Canada’s first privately operated community designed specifically for people with dementia, Langley Village

The Views, Canada’s first public, non-profit long-term care home modelled after a dementia village is opening in July, 2024.

The village has been designed for 156 residents and is divided into 13 households.  Each mini-neighbourhood has 12 residential suites and a common living area with a kitchen, laundry room, dining area and living space.

“These villages are safe, community-focused and allow residents to feel a sense of belonging while getting the care and support they need,” says B.C. Health Minister Adrian Dix.

Providence Living created this site for seniors living with or without dementia and for younger adults in need of long-term care.

This is another example of transformative change taking place in our long-term care home system – from Institutions to Homes.
