Staffed Living

Staffed Homes for People with Diverse Abilities

The home environment and staffing is structured in a way that blends the preferences, lifestyle choices, or other requirements of the residents in the home. Homes are staffed by trained and caring individuals who specifically respond to the ever changing needs and preferences of the residents. This training includes, but is not limited to, First Aid/CPR, Medication Administration, the Art of Personal Care, Essence of Home, Developing Living Culture, and may include additional training to address specific behaviour.

Each home operated by Integra has a highly specialized Residential Manager. The Manager is most often hands-on, providing direct care to the residents of the home, and to reset as a role mode, providing supportive guidance to the home’s team members. Residential Staffed Living services are managed and monitored for quality assurance by the Director of Operations for each Region, Regular meeting occurs for training, and sharing information on a regular basis.

Our adult homes are funded by CLBC and referrals are made by CLBC. Each of Integra’s staffed living homes are warm and inviting, offering a range of amenities, including:

  • Spacious family rooms
  • Comfortable furniture
  • Large kitchens
  • Modern, accessible bathrooms
  • Personalized bedrooms

Support – What does that mean?

The type of support people receive is dependent on specific needs outlined in a Person Centred Plan, Health Care Plan, and other information provided by the family or support network. The information in these plans are updated annually and include information from all available sources to provide the most current and accurate information.
