Lifestyle Options is a division of the Carrington Group of Companies.  Carrington has been providing quality housing for Edmontonians for over 35 years.  In 1996 a meeting between Ken Ferchoff (president of Carrington) and Renate Sainsbury (Life Options) resulted in the forming of a new company, Lifestyle Options whose objective was to provide quality, affordable housing while at the same time providing opportunities for socializing and leisure.  Our philosophy of care is prevention with daily participation in activities by focusing on the strengths and capabilities of each individual in meaningful life experiences through active lifestyles. 

Baby Boomers don’t want to go to nursing homes.  As a result people can end up isolated in their own homes and that is not necessarily the best thing.  But you can bring services to individuals in their homes – health care, meals, housekeeping, and more – you can break through the isolation.   
                        
The partnership with Alberta Health Services where care is brought into their homes is very important. People often say they want to be Independent, however, Interdependence is the key.  No one is truly independent.  We need each other.  That’s why it is important to design living spaces that enable a sense of connectedness, being productive and helping others.  As we grow older, it’s healthier to live in an environment where you can ask for help and you can give help, where you have the opportunity to do things that bring you joy.
