Life at North York General Hospital: Seniors’ Health Centre feels grounded and purposeful, shaped by a team that genuinely knows each resident as an individual. Located at 2 Buchan Ct in North York, Ontario, the Seniors’ Health Centre is a 192-bed long-term care home that sits within the broader North York General Hospital campus, bringing together the warmth of a home-like setting and the reassurance of hospital-affiliated care.
The Seniors’ Health Centre offers two primary types of care for older adults: long-term care and palliative care. The long-term care program is designed for seniors who require ongoing, around-the-clock support with their health and daily living needs. Highly trained nurses are on-site at all times, and physicians affiliated with North York General Hospital visit the facility on a weekly basis to support residents with more complex medical needs. The palliative care program provides compassionate end-of-life support, focusing on comfort, dignity, and quality of life for residents and their families during a deeply personal time. Both care streams reflect the facility’s commitment to individualized, respectful care that honours each resident’s preferences, cultural background, and personal history.
