Live Here peopleCare Delhi

Delhi Long-Term Care (LTC) has been an important part of the local community in Norfolk County, Ontario since opening its doors in the early 1970s, with the unwavering support and engagement of families, volunteers, students and local businesses.

In 2025, peopleCare completed construction of a brand-new 128-bed home on the same property as the old building. The beautiful new home has four 32-person resident home areas, each named as a nod to the community where so many of our seniors have lived their whole lives.

The home has one secure, specialized care area that supports residents with varying degrees of dementia. Residents can select private and basic accommodation in tastefully decorated and furnished rooms. Everyone is also warmly encouraged to decorate their rooms with personal items and favourite pieces of furniture that fit in the space.

peopleCare Delhi LTC also offers spacious lounges for social interactions with family and friends, a cafe/bistro in the main reception area, a multi-purpose spiritual and event space and the Gingerich Family Stayover Suite. Terraces and a beautiful enclosed courtyard offer safe outdoor areas for relaxation. Daily activities provide enhanced programming for all residents in both small and large group settings.
