About KIVA at Canterbury

More than care — a place to belong

KIVA at Canterbury was created on a simple belief: seniors deserve to live with comfort, dignity, and genuine companionship, in a home that feels like their own.

Our Care Philosophy

Dignity first, always

At KIVA at Canterbury, care starts with knowing the person — their history, their habits, the little things that make a day feel right. Our caregivers take time to learn each resident’s story, so support never feels clinical or rushed.

We help with the activities of daily living — bathing, dressing, grooming, medications, mobility — while encouraging independence wherever it’s safe and comfortable. The goal isn’t to do everything for our residents; it’s to make every day easier, safer, and more joyful.

As the sister community to Magnolia Manor in Clearwater, KIVA at Canterbury shares the Creative Living Care Group standard: where professionalism meets compassion.

Our Team

Caregivers who treat residents like family

Our team is small by design. The same familiar faces greet residents each morning, share meals with them, and check in through the night.

Around-the-Clock Presence

Caregiving staff are on-site 24 hours a day, so help is always a call button — or a few steps — away.

Experienced & Trained

Our caregivers are experienced in senior care and trained to support changing needs with patience and respect.

Partners with Families

We keep families in the loop with open communication — you’ll always know how your loved one is doing.

Safety & Peace of Mind

Medication support, fall-aware routines, and watchful care let residents relax — and let families sleep at night.

Daily Life

A day at KIVA at Canterbury

No two residents keep the same rhythm, and that’s the point — days are structured enough to feel secure, flexible enough to feel like home.

Morning

Gentle starts

A good breakfast, help getting ready for the day, medications on schedule, and coffee with friends or the morning paper.

Midday

Shared meals & activity

Home-cooked lunch around the table, followed by group activities, crafts, games, or time in the garden.

Afternoon

Visits & quiet time

Family visits, rest, one-on-one time with caregivers, and light exercise or a favorite show in the living room.

Evening

Winding down, watched over

Dinner together, evening routines with as much help as needed, and overnight staff keeping a quiet, watchful eye.
