Terraces of Baycrest

The Terraces of Baycrest offer older adults their own apartment in a community that is supported by social work, recreational and health care services. Every resident has a social worker that will assist through the transitional stage of moving in, and then support individual residents in their efforts to build a new and rewarding lifestyle for themselves.

Social workers also are available to assist family members in caring for their loved ones. Individual and family counselling is provided where appropriate. Terrace social workers also offer a range of psycho-educational groups for residents.
