About AgeCare Malaspina

Imagine starting your morning with a stroll through beautifully kept gardens, knowing that everything you need is close at hand and that a caring team is there whenever you need them. That sense of ease and belonging is what residents experience every day at AgeCare Malaspina, located at 100 Eleventh Street in Nanaimo, British Columbia. As part of the AgeCare network, one of Canada’s most respected providers of senior living communities, Malaspina is a place where aging with dignity is not just a goal but a daily reality.

Living Options & Care Levels

AgeCare Malaspina offers a broad range of care options, making it possible for residents to find the level of support that fits their current needs while having a path forward as those needs change over time. Assisted Living is available for seniors who value their independence but benefit from having help with daily tasks such as personal care, medication management, and mobility. For those living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia, the Memory Care program provides a structured, safe environment designed to reduce anxiety and support cognitive well-being through familiar routines and compassionate, specialized care. Long-Term Care is available for residents who require more intensive, around-the-clock support with their health and personal care needs, provided by a professional team in a home-like setting. The community also operates as a Retirement Home, offering a warm residential option for seniors who are looking for community and comfort without requiring heavy medical support. For families navigating a transition or caregivers who need a temporary break, Respite Care provides short-term stays with access to the same quality of care and community life that long-term residents enjoy. Continuing Care rounds out the offering, ensuring that seniors can receive integrated, ongoing support that evolves alongside their health journey.
