About United Active Living

Nursing Homes and Residential Care Facilities

At United Active Living, everything we do starts with you and together, we are transforming the experience of getting older. We are a locally owned, private organization that delivers an innovative, quality living experience – on your terms.

Our communities offer independent living, assisted living and memory care services.

We are known for introducing leading practices among older adult communities, and offering a variety of dynamic programming including independent art practice, creative workshops, and rich drama and theatre experiences.

United Active Living fosters a vibrant and lively place to call home.

You'll have the opportunity to enjoy quality time with fellow residents, while creating real connections and relationships with a team who really cares. We pride ourselves on our partnerships, which means there are many opportunities to engage with organizations that enrich your life experiences— from trips to the Calgary Philharmonic to classes at St. Mary's University – residents have many choices for lifelong learning and rich cultural experiences.

Along with independent and assisted living options, United's unique United Minds memory care service is one of the most progressive dementia care services in Canada.

We ensure residents living with dementia are engaged in everything we do. Residents living with dementia are integrated into our communities – from where they live to where they dine and the programs and services they enjoy. Importantly, couples can choose to stay together even when their care needs may look different.
