Private Seniors' Residence (PSR)

Activities, progressive care and a caring staff

Faubourg Giffard is located on Chemin de la Canardière in Québec City, near downtown, Beauport, and Domaine de Maizerets. Independent and semi-independent seniors will find additional care services for greater peace of mind. The residence offers a selection of studios, as well as 3 ½, 4 ½, and 5 ½ apartments, along with common areas and on-site services. Every day, we organize engaging themed activities, including musical events, line dancing, and light exercises. Residents can also enjoy billiard tables, a swimming pool, and shuffleboard and pétanque courts. Our beautiful garden provides the perfect setting for relaxation.

Nestled in an urban neighborhood close to nature, Faubourg Giffard offers a true oasis of tranquility. The hospital and local shops are also easily accessible via two major roads.

      J’ai obtenu un emploi au Faubourg Giffard et j’en suis bien heureuse. C’est une belle équipe qui s’entraide, un bel environnement et que dire des résidents… ils sont tous uniques et gentils !

      Convenable mais service lent
