ABOUT USShare life stories & laughter at The Edgewood Center

  • YOUR LIFE
  • YOUR DECISIONS

We’re here to make your life the best it can be- at whatever level of care you find yourself in. We’re a family that looks out for each other- residents and staff alike.
Our amenities, activities and care plans are built around your needs and preferences. Genuine relationships between staff and residents means we get to know what your ‘normal’ looks like.
How you feel, look, eat and sleep each day is important to us, so if something is not right, we’ll notice right away and get the medical attention you need, pre-empting complications and hospitalization.

At The Edgewood Center, you’re never a patient. You might be a retired teacher, medical professional or  mechanic. Whatever your background, you’re a valued member of our community and we respect your wisdom and life experience. We’ll call you by your preferred name or title, and we’ll get to know each other’s interests, life stories and personalities.
Our goal is to customize the highest quality retirement living experience for each person. Surrounded by new and old friends, supported by caring medical staff, and serviced by dependable maintenance/living crew, you can live every day to its fullest.

Edgewood is a special place and has had a huge impact on my life. I look forward to coming to work, helping people, engaging with residents and co-workers, and making a difference. I love being part of this warm, caring, resident-focused culture and strong community. I wear many hats here – LNA, Scheduler, and MNA. Thanks to Edgewood, I was able to enhance my clinical skills while being supported in maintaining a balanced life with flexible scheduling. Edgewood will support you to reach your potential and become your best!
