Who Are We?
Andrews Senior Care provides best in class assisted living and nursing care at homes across Prince Edward Island, the safest Province during the COVID-19 pandemic.
We’ve been family owned and operated for over 30 years, which enables us to cut through the red tape, pivot and make decisions quickly in a way that big corporate groups and centralized healthcare systems can only dream of. During the early days of the pandemic, when many homes across Canada struggled with no PPE, we had stockpiles ready for our residents and staff.
