Baycrest Programs and Services

Even if you’re already familiar with our organization, you probably aren’t aware of just how much we have to offer. Within these pages, you’ll find a list of Baycrest programs and services. They include recreational and social programming, health promotion and maintenance programs, housing, specialized out-patient, mental health, residential, and medical support services designed especially for people in their 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and beyond.

Each listing contains a brief description of the service and where to go for more information or to make an appointment. We have also included information on whether any fees are involved, and who is eligible to take part. Due to demand some programs maybe full when you call, but we will be happy to put you on a waiting list.

If you have questions, please call Baycrest’s Seniors Counselling and Referral Service at (416) 785-2500, ext. 2223.
