Living with dementia does not mean you have to stop being who you are. No matter where you are on your dementia journey, you are still entitled and able to have new adventures, make new friends, and learn new things.

At United, we have purposely designed our memory care senior living home environments, our United Minds service, and our specialized staff education to support you in maintaining your independence along your journey.

Resident Choir

Singing is about coming together and making a joyful noise. Whether you’ve sung in choirs or only in the shower our professional choir director will lead you – when we can sing again – in fun and engaging songs that will leave you wanting more.

Music Appreciation with Jill and Mark

This is your chance to connect to music you know, broaden your horizons with pieces you’ve never heard and learn about the lives of the music creators, be they Beethoven or the Beatles.

In-House Concerts

Thanks to United’s many partnerships with leading cultural organizations and professional musicians, you get the best seats in the house for country, classical, jazz, choral and other concerts right in our community.

Concert Excursions

Whether you’ve been a longtime subscriber to groups like the Calgary Phil, Calgary Opera or Calgary Jazz Orchestra, or exploring concerts for the first time, regular excursions to music venues around the city keep us connected with the best our city has to offer.

Independent Art Practice

Many of our residents have a strong art practice. We encourage beginner and experienced artists to continue their work in our well-equipped studios. Standard materials are provided as well as the environment to allow their creativity to flourish.

Creative Workshops

Our professional artists bring a variety of expertise in contemporary art practices. We have an ever-changing schedule of creative workshops to explore the wide world of art from digital media, textile art, 3D paper forms, fine craft techniques, collaboration and more!

Ceramics

Our studios are fully equipped with all the tools necessary to create with clay including pottery wheels. A kiln for firing is at Fish Creek and available to both communities. Residents have the opportunity to explore techniques in hand building, wheel throwing, and sculpture.

Sketching

Regular still-life drawing workshops exercise our artists’ sketching skills. These workshops aid in perspective and composition, and are always a pleasant social gathering.

Excursion to River Cross Ranch

A recent excursion to the River Cross Ranch included lunch, a visit with therapy horses, a keepsake, and tons of smiles and laughter.

Art Gallery Visits

We are fortunate to have many great art galleries and cultural institutions in our city. These experiences spark dialogue and inspire creativity.

Emerging Artists

The Calgary Philharmonic (CPO) has been a cornerstone of Calgary’s arts community since 1955. As a partner with United, residents can attend selected CPO dress rehearsals. They also enjoy in-house performances and lectures by Calgary Phil musicians.

Our Values

United Active Living aims to enhance residents’ quality of life. Our values of Respect, Individuality, and Community guide all our decision-making toward this goal.

Respect

We are inclusive and welcoming. The diverse life experiences and unique perspectives of our residents make us stronger. Treating everyone with respect builds feelings of trust, safety, and well-being. Inquire about our senior living facilities.

Individuality

Our Calgary retirement community values the individual. How each person brings something unique to the table and has their own needs, desires, and dreams that need to be encouraged and supported. There is not a one size fits all solution when it comes to people and we value the culture and learning that comes with a diversity of unique individuals. Inquire about our senior living apartments.

Community

Our senior retirement community values the sense of belonging and purpose that comes with being part of a group. Our staff and residents are always engaging and enriching each other’s lives. And those authentic connections go beyond our doors.
