Faubourg Giffard
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.
