North Queens Nursing Home is located at 9565 Keji Drive, Caledonia, Nova Scotia. North Queens Nursing Home was first opened in 1938 as the Wright Nursing home to care for the citizens of Caledonia. In 1944 it became a Cottage Hospital, primarily dealing with maternity cases coming from the surrounding area who wanted to give birth closer to their home. From these beginnings, North Queens Nursing Home evolved into a Home for Special Care with the capacity for fortytwo (42) residents and two (2) respite beds. It is a non-profit organization, under the management of a Board of Directors made up of ten (10) citizens. We believe that aging is a developmental process in the total span of life and that an older person has a purpose and potential for growth. The administration and staff of North Queens Nursing Home foster the belief that an individual's quality of life should be maintained at their optimal level while ensuring that their medical, social, physical, psychosocial, and spiritual needs are fulfilled. In other words, North Queens residents have the right to the opportunity of living a lifestyle which permits them to do as much as they can, as well as they can, for as long as they can! |
