At St. Peter’s Residence we provide a home-like environment for all our residents and family members with special attention to high quality, person centred care. Whether you prefer to socialize in our café, enjoy regular entertainment, or participate in our many recreation programs, there is something for you at St. Peter’s. Our highly trained staff deliver care and services in a way that meets individual needs and preferences.

St. Peter’s is a Best Practice Spotlight Organization (BPSO)

Best Practice Spotlight Organizations (BPSOs) are health-care and academic organizations selected by the Registered Nurses’ Association of Ontario (RNAO) to implement and evaluate the RNAO’s best practice guidelines. St. Peter’s is committed to continuous quality improvement and is thrilled to work in partnership with the RNAO to ensure the advancement and delivery of best practices in the health care sector and in our home.

In 2017, St. Peter's Residence at Chedoke became designated as a Best Practice Spotlight Organization by the RNAO after three years of demonstrating a commitment to implementing best practices in the home. Between 2015 and 2017, the home implemented the following Best Practice Guidelines:

Developing and sustaining nursing leadership
Client centered care
Assessment and management of pain
Preventing and addressing abuse and neglect of older adults
Prevention of falls and fall injuries
Promoting safety: alternatives to restraints

During our Designation Period from 2017-2019, St. Peter's implemented the following Best Practice Guidelines:

Oral Health: nursing assessments and interventions
Care transitions

We continue to work on implementation of the following Best Practice guidelines in our homes:

A palliative approach to care in the last 12 months of life
Adopting eHealth solutions: implementation strategies

We look forward to continuing the work of developing Best Practice Champions and Implementation of Best Practice Guidelines as we move forward! This work helps us build upon the existing quality platform and continuously evaluate and improve programs, policies and processes for better outcomes for residents, families and staff.
