AgeCare South Terrace

Mornings begin with a warm meal in a welcoming dining room. Afternoons unfold in a sunlit lounge or a beautifully landscaped courtyard. At AgeCare South Terrace, located in the established Lendrum neighbourhood of southwest Edmonton, daily life is shaped by comfort, connection, and genuine care. This 107-bed continuing care community is designed for seniors who want to feel at home while receiving the support they need.

Living Options & Care Levels

AgeCare South Terrace is a Continuing Care Home Type A, which means it is designed for individuals who have complex or unpredictable medical needs and require more support than what can be provided at home or in a supportive living setting. Every aspect of the community, from its wide hallways and barrier-free suites to its accessible ensuite bathrooms and in-suite emergency call systems, has been thoughtfully designed with higher-needs residents in mind. A Registered Nurse Care Leader oversees all aspects of resident care and works alongside an interdisciplinary team that includes Registered Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses, Health Care Aides, Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists, Recreational Therapists, and Social Workers. This comprehensive team approach means that residents receive coordinated, consistent care that addresses their physical, emotional, and social wellbeing. The 107 suites, available in both private and semi-private configurations, are publicly funded through Alberta Health Services. Admission begins with a health care assessment through AHS, and the team at South Terrace is available to help guide families through that process. In addition to continuing care, the community also supports residents living with memory-related conditions, providing a safe and structured environment for those who need specialized attention.

What You’ll Love About Living Here

Life at AgeCare South Terrace is built around meaningful daily experiences. Each day, residents enjoy three nutritious meals served in inviting dining rooms, with snacks available at any time so no one ever feels hungry between meals. The kitchen and dining experience are central to the rhythm of the community, offering not just nourishment but a reliable gathering point where friendships are made and conversations flow. Beyond mealtimes, residents have access to cozy common areas where they can relax, socialize, or simply enjoy a quiet moment. The outdoor courtyard and gardens offer a peaceful retreat when the weather invites it, giving residents a chance to enjoy fresh air and greenery without leaving the comfort of the community. For those who enjoy a little personal pampering, the on-site spa and hair salon makes it easy to feel polished and refreshed. General housekeeping is taken care of on a weekly basis, along with laundry services for linens and towels, so residents can focus on enjoying their days rather than managing chores. The recreational team works to offer daily programming that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit, and families can stay connected to their loved one’s activity schedule through a dedicated online portal. Every detail of life here is designed so that residents feel celebrated and supported, not just cared for.

Why Residents Choose AgeCare South Terrace

Families searching for a long-term care option want to feel confident that their loved one will be safe, respected, and genuinely looked after every single day. AgeCare South Terrace offers exactly that kind of reassurance. Onsite staff are present around the clock, and each suite is equipped with an emergency call system so help is always within reach. The care team does not change day to day in its commitment to residents. The same interdisciplinary professionals work together consistently, getting to know each resident as an individual and tailoring care to their specific needs and preferences. This person-centred approach means that residents are seen as whole people with unique histories, preferences, and personalities, not simply as patients. For families, this consistency translates into peace of mind. Knowing that a skilled, compassionate team is present at all hours, and that the physical environment has been purpose-built for safety and accessibility, allows families to feel settled in their decision rather than anxious about it. AgeCare South Terrace is also part of a larger network of AgeCare communities, which means residents and families benefit from the organization’s ongoing commitment to research, innovation, and best practices in senior living.
