German-Canadian Care Home

The German-Canadian Care Home is a 132-bed complex care home operated by the German-Canadian Benevolent Society of British Columbia. Our services include 24-hour professional nursing care, social work and pastoral care, rehabilitation and recreation services, meals, housekeeping and laundry.

We have single rooms with a private washroom and double rooms with a shared washroom. Rooms are furnished with a bed and a night table, and residents may bring some furniture upon request. New residents are generally admitted to a double room until a single room becomes available.

Room rates are set by Vancouver Coastal Health and are income-based.

May 28, 2025: It is with great excitement and pride that we announce the redevelopment of a new, state-of-the-art care home on our current site.

The new care home will accommodate 178 residents in individual rooms, 46 more than our current capacity, and will look and feel like a residential space while being equipped for the delivery of complex care.

The new care home will include 15 households, each will be home to 12 residents. Each resident will have a private space, a single room with a private ensuite washroom including a shower. The household has a kitchen, dining and lounge spaces and laundry for personal laundry thus allowing for maximum flexibility for daily life to unfold.

The three households on each level are connected by a neighborhood space offering comfortable seating for residents and families to socialize and relax.

In addition to these living spaces the care home features a village space consisting of a large community hall, library, spa, treatment room, rehabilitation room, art room and conservatory. With rehabilitation services being a focus of our Comfortzeit® care model, a well-equipped rehabilitation room will offer therapies that support independence and well-being.
