Headingley is a scenic area of town with plenty of entertainment and attractions to make you want to call this area home.
Perhaps one of the most popular destinations for locals is the Breezy Bend Country Club. Families can spend time together enjoying the fine sport of golf before wrapping up for the evening in their fine restaurant. This center is known for hosting elegant weddings and meals that will please every palette.
If culinary achievement isn’t your forte, there’s still plenty of major reasons to call Headingley home.

Our family created Partners for Home, after our father was diagnosed with ALS in 2007. Since this time we have become experts in helping families understand and navigate through the options here in Manitoba for the highest possible Home Care experience.
Because of our how company works with the WRHA’s Self / Family Managed Home Care program, not only was our father able to remain in his home, but he continues to feel safe and remain a family contributor while maintaining his dignity. None of this would have been possible without this program. SFMC allows Manitoban’s through a private Agency to build a truly customized level of service specific to their individual needs. For our family, this meant our father could be helped out of bed at the time he wanted to be moved instead of waiting sometimes for hours for someone to arrive. Rather than having to deal with new people coming to our house almost every day, he could rely on the same Care Giver. This resulted in a less stressful environment for both our father and the Care Givers, as he no longer needs to retrain a new worker each and every day on how to move him. In addition, our father can have a shower as often as he wants, and is no longer limited to just one per week, which just was not enough. In addition, moving to the Self / Family Managed Home Care program, has enabled our family to develop meaningful relationships with the Care Givers that serve our family.
Success between our caregivers and clients can frequently be influenced by the presence or absence of compatibility between the participants and we do not leave that factor to chance. Partners for Home leverages Insights Discovery, a world-class psychometric methodology which highlights an individual’s own strengths and weaknesses, communication style, approach to problems and value to a team. Insights Discovery is built to help people understand themselves, understand others and make the most of relationships that affect them. This system has high value to our Clients and to all of our Home Care Partners.
This is very important because your Home Care Partner may be spending a lot of time in the home. They can help your loved one to get ready for the day with showering, grooming, and toileting. The primary goal of personal care is to help our clients through their routines safely and with the greatest degree of physical comfort.
We believe that offering support to family members, particularly the primary caregiver, is extremely important. That’s why we help to ensure that primary caregivers are able to maintain balance in their personal lives. You should be able to trust that your loved one is being well taken care of in your absence so you can enjoy some respite from what can be a stressful situation.

This can include light housekeeping, grocery shopping, laundry, and meal preparation to make things run more smoothly.
