Alyssa has held a nursing management role at Edgewood for the past 4 years and is an integral member of our Covid-19 response team. She has stepped up on numerous occasions to staff the isolation unit and has also altered her shift to meet the needs of the facility. One of our favorite lines in the AHCA documentary, Closed Doors, Open Hearts is when Alyssa says in reference to working the Covid-19 unit, “I was all in, and I meant it.” Alyssa will again be “all in” as she has assumed the role of the facility’s Infection Control Preventionist. Bravo, Alyssa - You are appreciated! 👏👏👏

Bill, our Director of Dining Services is armed with 20 + years of experience, a degree in Culinary arts, along with multiple food service certifications….and a few sharp knives;) He has a passion for building strong teams, believes that food is personal, and that you can reach anyone with a plate. Bill’s secret super power is adding levity and hope even on the darkest days, always reminding us to live our best life. He certainly is - whether it’s concocting nutritious meals, breaking a sweat in our dish room , early mornings at the ice arena, or riding off into the sunset on his motorcycle. His hard work, deep investment in people, coupled with his fabulous sense of humor is much appreciated by all. Thank you, Bill!

Our Story

The Edgewood Centre is an award-winning, family-owned care facility that specializes in providing rehab, skilled nursing and long-term care in a warm, welcoming environment.

As an independent facility, we make sure that everything we do, every decision we make, is for the residents. That has been our family’s philosophy here at Edgewood since 1972.

We are proud of our long history of providing exceptional care and we are equally proud of our reputation as a leader in culture change – modeling for others how comfortable, and how dignified, a resident-centered facility can be.

Caring for people in a home-like environment is what we are truly all about. We carefully select and screen prospective staff members to ensure that we have assembled a team of managers and direct care staff who strongly support our service standards and believe that nothing less than the best will do.
