About Foyer Maillard 
The Society was formed when a French Canadian Maillardville couple made a 
substantial land bequest in the 1960’s. Their wish was to build an affordable home 
for seniors. The wish became a reality, with the support and donations of many 
community residents, CMHC and B.C. Housing Corporation. 
 
The Foyer Maillard opened its doors as a residence for seniors on May 1, 1969, 
offering supportive housing for seniors in a room and board model. A massive 
renovation project was undertaken in the 1980s to incorporate licensed care in the 
building for those residents wishing to “age in place”. In 2014 the original building 
was demolished to build a state of the art, purpose-built residence for seniors 
requiring complex care. Foyer Maillard welcomed its first resident into the new 
building on June 7, 2016. 
 
Philosophy of Care 
“We believe that quality of life is achieved through person-centered care and through 
empowering, embracing and engaging each individual.”

À propos du Foyer Maillard 
La Société a été créée dans les années 1960 grâce au don d’un couple canadien-
français de Maillardville, qui souhaitait construire un foyer abordable pour les aînés. 
Avec l’appui des résidents, de la SCHL et de BC Housing, ce souhait est devenu réalité. 
 
Le Foyer Maillard a ouvert ses portes le 1er mai 1969 comme résidence offrant 
hébergement et repas aux aînés. Dans les années 1980, une grande rénovation a 
permis d’intégrer des lits de soins afin que les résidents puissent « vieillir sur place ». 
En 2014, l’ancien bâtiment a été remplacé par une résidence moderne spécialement 
conçue pour les soins complexes. Le 7 juin 2016, le premier résident a été accueilli 
dans le nouveau Foyer. 
 
Philosophie de soins 
« Nous croyons que la qualité de vie s’obtient grâce à des soins centrés sur la 
personne et par la valorisation, le respect et l’engagement de chacun. »
