About AgeCare Woodhaven
Imagine starting each day in a bright, thoughtfully designed suite, with a warm meal waiting in a welcoming dining room just steps away and friendly staff always nearby. That is the daily experience at AgeCare Woodhaven, a long-term care community located at 380 Church Street in Markham, Ontario. Designed with both comfort and safety in mind, this modern residence brings together professional care, meaningful social connection, and a genuine sense of home for its 192 licensed residents.
Living Options & Care Levels
AgeCare Woodhaven is a dedicated long-term care community, making it well suited for older adults who have complex or unpredictable medical needs that can no longer be safely managed at home or in a less intensive care setting. Residents here receive around-the-clock nursing care and hands-on support with daily living activities such as bathing, dressing, mobility, and medication management. A Registered Nurse Care Leader oversees each resident’s overall care plan and works alongside a team that includes Registered Nurses, Registered Practical Nurses, Personal Support Workers, Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists, Recreational Therapists, Dietitians, Social Workers, and Physicians. This interdisciplinary approach means that each resident’s physical, emotional, and social needs are looked at as a whole, not in isolation. The community is organized into distinct neighbourhoods, each with its own dining room, living room, and spa, which creates a smaller, more personal atmosphere within the larger residence. Both private and semi-private suite options are available, and the building has been purposefully designed to support accessibility, with wide hallways, handrails, barrier-free suites, and accessible ensuite bathrooms throughout.
What You’ll Love About Living Here
Life at AgeCare Woodhaven is shaped by a rhythm that balances nourishment, comfort, and connection. Three chef-prepared meals are served each day in the neighbourhood dining rooms, and snacks are always available for those who want a little something between meals. For special occasions or private family visits, a dedicated private dining room gives residents and their loved ones a quieter space to share a meal together. The on-site café adds another layer of everyday enjoyment, offering a relaxed spot to meet friends or simply unwind with a coffee. Beyond dining, the beautifully landscaped gardens and outdoor terrace invite residents to spend time in the fresh air when the seasons allow. Inside, comfortable common areas and cozy lounges offer plenty of places to gather, read, or take part in recreational activities. Cultural celebrations are woven into community life, honoring the diverse backgrounds of residents and bringing people together around shared traditions. Day-to-day practicalities are handled with care as well, with general housekeeping and laundry and linen services provided so residents can focus on enjoying their days rather than managing household tasks.
