AON Long-Term Care
At AON long-term care homes, our staff is dedicated to providing services that will enable you to live your life to the fullest. With aging comes increasing frailties and new challenges. We understand that. It is our role to provide a supportive environment that ensures the maximum independence, dignity and wellness of every one of our residents.
Our commitment is to treat every one of our residents as an individual and with this in mind we tailor programs to meet specific needs. We believe that each resident has the right to make decisions about their own care and we encourage individual control over the choices encountered in daily life. Our emphasis is on the self-direction and the dignity of each resident, regardless of their physical condition.
Our team of professionals provides a wide range of services to care for the whole person - mind, body and spirit. "Wellness" is more than just attending to physical care needs, it means fulfilling emotional and spiritual needs as well. We emphasize what our residents can do—and what they choose to do—in striving to achieve the maximum level of independence and wellness.
The following are some of the many services and programs you will find at AON long-term care homes. Give us a call or drop in for a visit if you wish further information. We will be pleased to show you and your family all that we have to offer.
We have experienced nursing staff on duty 24 hours per day to ensure our residents' health and well-being. Our care team includes Registered Nurses, Registered Practical Nurses and Personal Support Workers who follow the professional standards of practice of the College of Nurses of Ontario. We administer medications and treatments as ordered by physicians, coordinate therapy services, and provide assistance with the activities of daily living, including bathing, dressing, and hygiene.
For added convenience, residents may use one of our advisory physicians who visit our homes each week. Routine lab tests, blood tests and some x-ray assessments are arranged on-premises for your convenience. All prescription drugs are coordinated through our nursing staff and are delivered daily.
AON long term care homes provide a wide range of care services, including complex health care and dementia care. One of our four home-areas is dedicated to providing a comfortable and safe environment for those who require our specialized "Heritage Program". Click here to find out more.
We offer foot care on site at our long term care homes to enhance our residents quality of life, wellness and to prevent future problems. A certified foot care nurse will provide both basic or advanced foot care after a professional assessment. Not only is this an important service for our residents, it actually feels great too! Professional fees apply.
We organize a variety of on-site therapy services to enhance the wellness of our residents and to preserve their independence. Individual or group programs are arranged depending upon needs. Therapy programs such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy are provided by our staff or accessed through Home Care. Some additional "spa" services are also available on-site, including hair salon (or barber), foot care, massage therapy and health education. Professional fees apply.
AON LTC Homes are located in the village of Millbrook, just minutes south of Peterborough, and in the village of Tweed, a short distance north of Belleville, Ontario.
