The city of Lac-Mégantic is known to be a warm, friendly and peaceful place; characteristics perfect for those who would like to settle to enjoy the most beautiful retirement there is. With this in mind, the Eden sur le Lac Residence, located in the centre of this municipality of nearly 6,000 souls, offers its residents a living environment with a dynamic family atmosphere.
A family matter
The Eden sur le Lac Residence was founded in 1988 by Mr. Roger Rancourt and his wife, Thérèse Royer. Their wish was to provide seniors in the region with a comfortable and safe living environment.
Ten years after the foundation of the residence, their son Jean carried on the family tradition. His wife, Anie Leclerc, subsequently joined him. To offer him support, she went back to school and obtained a diploma from the Health, Assistance and Nursing Care program at the Centre de formation professionnelle Le Granit. Together, their objective is, of course, to continue the mission of the founders, but above all to make Eden sur le Lac a constantly evolving residence that offers an exceptional quality of life to its residents.
Today, the residence can accommodate up to 65 autonomous or semi-autonomous seniors within its walls. It has 52 rooms, including 36 single rooms, 3 convalescent rooms and 13 suites. Moreover, noting the growing need for care by semi-autonomous people, the residence tends to specialize more and more in this field.
A warm atmosphere
This beautiful family story and the values that have been passed down over time have ensured that the management of the residence rests on solid foundations which are greatly appreciated by its clientele.
Indeed, the Eden sur le Lac Residence offers a very warm atmosphere, created by a superb, dedicated, dynamic, hardworking and smiling team that makes residents feel so good!
The well-being and safety of residents are two main priorities for the team at Eden sur le Lac Residence. Thus, during the pandemic, management and employees did not skimp on the means to provide a safe environment. Even during the deconfinements announced by government authorities, the residence’s team continued to apply strict guidelines. Congratulations to all the staff, who, for over a year, has been renewing its efforts to make the residence a safe place to live.
The immediate surroundings of the residence are also pleasing. Located in the heart of Lac-Mégantic, it is close to everything and residents can easily get around on foot. Grocery store, hospital, shopping centre, hardware store, restaurants: there is something to keep everyone busy!
