A scenic home to Saugeen Valley Nursing Center, Mount Forest is a part of Wellington North Township in Wellington County, Ontario. Located on the Saugeen River, it is a friendly, historic town. Residents are encouraged to participate in community outings. In turn, community groups are welcomed to visit the facility in our efforts to strengthen the association between the residents and the surrounding community.

The staff feel a strong sense of ownership and accountability as they are often caring for people they know from their personal lives ... community members, relatives ... caring for those who are the threads of the community.

Volunteers are always needed to help organize programs and provide individual services. Want to Volunteer? Find out how by clicking here.

Relatives and Friends, especially children, are encouraged to visit. Family pets (properly vaccinated, housebroken and leashed) are also welcome.

We are one of a few long-term care homes that offer respite care beds. For details on our Caregiver Relief Program CLICK HERE.

Committed staff and community partners enhance the quality of life of each resident by providing holistic care that recognizes the emotional, social, physical and spiritual needs of each resident.
