Do you have to be Mennonite to live or work at Fairview?

Fairview continues to attract a church based population. We welcome people from all faiths and walks of life.


Are subsidies available for persons living at Fairview?

In the Long Term Care Home, 40% of the beds can be subsidized according to the income of the Resident. To apply for a subsidized Long Term Care bed, families need to specify the need for Basic Accommodation on application with Community Care Access Centre and then on admission the monthly fee will be determined according to the Notice of Assessment.

Both the Fairview Apartments and Preston School Apartments offer rent geared to income rentals for approximately 25% of the tenants. Application is made through Fairview Mennonite Home and Waterloo Region Community Housing.


As a continuing care retirement community, can you move to levels of greater care as required?

Since the Long Term Care Reform Act of 1995, all admission to Long Term Care is through the Community Care Access Centre. What that means for a continuum of care facility like Fairview is that we can no longer promise that our independent residents will have a priority when they need long term care. We can however, prioritize the move from independent living (apartments or villas) to assisted living (Fairview Suites).


How long is your waiting list?

We feel privileged to have many people waiting to live at Fairview. The wait lists vary according to building and type of accommodation. It is best to apply several years early, for both independent and assisted living so that you have a choice when you are ready to move.
