Comfort Life Reviews: Cambridge Manor

As soon as it opened, Cambridge Manor began generating suitably enthusiastic feedback from families and seniors. That’s no surprise, given that it’s part of the Brenda Strafford Foundation, an organization focused on research-backed innovation and care. Its setting in the University of Calgary’s intergenerational project adds an extra layer of exciting innovation. And then, for all its progressiveness, this community excels most of all in providing the evergreen need of care for our beloved seniors.

Numerous aspects of this community are cause for excitement. The age-in-place philosophy at Cambridge Manor is unique in its inclusion as part of the university setting, a pointedly vibrant and forward-looking environment. The spectrum of care available (both independent and assisted living, as well as memory care and long-term care) is part of that approach, and the availability of customized wellness plans means not only that you never have to move, but you’ll never want to.

For all of that, the lifestyle here stands out for two other reasons: the contemporary construction and the professionalism of the care staff. The building is above grade in every way imaginable, and no matter what age you are, this kind of setting is reinvigorating and will make every day feel new. Staff hired by the Foundation is renowned for the depth of their training and a leading-edge approach in care therapies and technologies. This is an excitingly innovative place to be.

What people say about Cambridge Manor

Cambridge Manor [has] been taking care of my father-in-law for months. Through Covid and all [he] has come to call this place home. The staff are fantastic, [taking] the time to call us to keep us updated with my father in law's care and make sure whatever he needs has always been taken care of.
