Silverstone Care Centre

What families should know

Placement through Vancouver Coastal Health — publicly funded placement

Silverstone Care Centre is a publicly funded long-term care home in Sechelt managed through Vancouver Coastal Health placement, so families generally enter through the health authority’s assessment and referral process rather than by direct booking. It is known for its newer campus-style design: the operator describes house-based neighbourhood groupings, private rooms, common lounges, a courtyard, and dedicated hospice rooms, while BC Seniors Advocate QuickFacts lists 128 publicly funded beds and all single-occupancy rooms. The home’s setting is in Sechelt on Derby Road, with the operator noting nearby shops and services and views toward Davis Bay, which can matter for family visits and errands. Public information also suggests the home serves people with aging-related and dementia-related needs, and the hospice partnership at the site may be especially relevant for families seeking palliative support. BC Seniors Advocate QuickFacts reports average admission waits of 352 days for community non-urgent admissions and 204 days for all admissions, but ask Vancouver Coastal Health how current waits compare. Ask about current waitlist status, visiting policies, hospice-room access, and whether the home’s care model matches your family member’s needs.
