Nestled in the Ottawa Valley in one of the most picturesque parts of Ontario, Cobden is a small community close to Pembroke and about an hour north of Ottawa.

Caressant Care Cobden was opened in July 2000 and this Nursing Home became one of the first built to the New Design Standards set out by the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care.

We have 60 nursing home beds which are standard (2 people in a semi-divided room) or private with their own ensuite bathroom. Residents now live in their own “Home” of no more than 32 Residents. Each Unit has a dining room, activity/lounge areas, etc. There is also a large activity room for all residents to join together for events, as well as a small Chapel for the use of residents and families. Activities range from crafts, bingo, get fit, bible study, and Birthday Parties, as well as outside entertainment are provided by local bands, speakers, and other groups within the area. The building is structured around an inner courtyard with access from the Nursing Home and the adjacent Retirement Home, offering residents a quiet and secure outdoor area to enjoy. Caressant Care Cobden also was able provide space for the Cobden Public Library within the building thus providing a close contact with the community itself.

Our residents enjoy 3 home-cooked meals every day that are prepared by our Dietary staff, and physician-ordered diets can be accommodated.
