The Benevolent Society “Heidehof” For The Care Of The Aged was incorporated without share capital under the laws of Ontario as a non-profit charitable organization on October 4, 1965. Its mission is to provide a continuum of care for anyone over sixty years of age in a variety of residential and care settings. Programs, activities and care are designed to achieve quality of life in physical, mental and spiritual health. The dignity of residents is recognized by respecting their rights and freedoms. Our uniqueness lies in our ability to serve the German ethnic, linguistic, and cultural needs of those under our care.
