Welcome to Hawthorne

We specialize in creating a cozy and inviting environment that ensures residents feel right at home. With a focus on independence, choice, and dignity, Hawthorne is among the best places for seniors in Alberta.

Located in the heart of Cochrane, AB

We offer modern amenities and living options for all residents. Our beautiful four-storey community opened in the summer of 2019. Residency at Hawthorne is for Supportive Living and Memory Care seniors, and residency is based on referrals and assessments by Alberta Health Services.
