Making the transition to a senior living community is an important step. For some seniors, living independently is no longer an option, and that means a community or facility to support their additional needs. The province of Saskatchewan offers many elder housing facilities with amenities and services for a range of resident needs. But the search can be overwhelming. How do you know where to start?
A simple search of Saskatchewan senior living facilities results in pages of results. We’ve simplified this process with a list of the top Saskatchewan senior living communities. While this is a useful list to start with, if you do not find a provider in your area, you may consult our senior living directory. You can also reach out and contact us as we have professional advisors available to assist.
A Reverse Mortgage Can Help Pay for a Saskatchewan Senior Facility
Senior living communities range in price. Some are quite affordable, while others can cost a lot depending on the required services. One of the more popular ways of paying for an elderly community is with a reverse mortgage. If the person transitioning into a facility currently lives in their own home, they can convert a portion of the home’s equity into cash and use this to pay for the senior facility. This is a viable option for many seniors who find themselves in this transitional period.
Ranking The Best Senior Living Facilities in Saskatchewan
The Internet has made business reviews easier to access than ever, giving us feedback and comments on nearly anything, senior living facilities included. Our team took the time to scrutinize hundreds of Facebook and Google reviews, along with the reviews left on our site. We used this method to arrive at a rough list of top communities. Before finalizing the list, however, we consulted the Saskatchewan Ministry of Health to ensure there were no outstanding violations or citations.
On average, an assisted living in Saskatchewan costs $3,100. Costs vary, and additional services can drive the price higher as additional care is needed. Specialized facilities like memory care and skilled nursing have more qualified staff available, and can cost twice as much as assisted living. Senior apartments are generally the cheapest, but no care is typically available.

What residents and loved ones have to say about Harbour Landing Village:
Harbour Landing Village has been one of the best health and wellness choices my family has made for our mom. Since her arrival March 15, 2020 we have seen a remarkable improvement in all aspects of her life. The Village has proven to be the small, welcoming, social and caring community we were promised. This could not have been more prevalent during the first few months of the Covid 19 Pandemic where Administration and Staff dedicated themselves to each and every person in their care. We were overwhelmed to know that people were staying at the home and sacrificing their lives and families for the care of those in the Village. Unprecedented. As we now begin to move slowly away from the Pandemics effects on the community, the commitment to care is not changing and only getting better. The constant communication we have with leadership and care givers continues to be high and effective. I can only hope, our positive experience will bring comfort to others that are facing the difficult and important decision for caring for their elderly parents and family members. Thanks for the great work and care for our Mom!!!

What residents and loved ones have to say about Diamond House | Golden Health Care:
My mother is a resident at Diamond House and she could not be happier. The care is outstanding and she is very happy. There is always a nurse or care aide in very close proximity of my mom, which gives her peace of mind. She enjoys the meals and is very happy and content with the environment and the skilled, friendly, helpful and caring staff. As well, there is an indoor greenhouse which she enjoys immensely, an art room, games/puzzle room, fitness room and plenty of room to go for a long walks, and lots of lounge areas to watch a show or movie. Other residents have been very welcoming to her and she is enjoying the conversations. As well, staff are very good with engaging with my mom and checks on her often. I visit with my mom everyday and see for myself how wonderful this place is. Highly recommended.
