Long-Term Care

Welcome to Parkwood's long-term care home

Parkwood Mennonite Home is a welcoming, not-for-profit Long-Term Care Home that provides compassionate, kind, quality care for 96 residents. The home offers 58 private and 19 shared rooms.

Parkwood has three resident home areas with 32 beds each to provide for the diverse needs of residents: Snyder’s Corner, Weber Woods, and Bauman Homestead.

When you arrive, our staff will meet with you and your family to develop your plan of care and update that plan annually or as required. Family members are encouraged to join our voluntary Family Council.

The cultural diversity of our staff allows them to communicate in many different languages.

Francophones are encouraged to apply to Parkwood which was identified as a French Language Services (FLS) Provider on January 8, 2021 by Ontario Health, West Region. Parkwood is building its capacity to support Francophone residents in French.
