Millennium Place

A care provider is anyone who supports guests* who require assistance to enjoy Strathcona County recreation facilities. The guest using the facility pays regular admission and their care provider accesses the facility free of charge.

*Does not including guests within our regular age-based guidelines.

Care provider guidelines
Care providers wear a highly-visible yellow wristband to ensure staff can quickly and easily identify them in situations where they are required for additional support or during an emergency.

The care provider should be prepared to join in the activity, switch activities or end the visit early, if required. If the care provider is participating in activities within a paid-admissions area of the facility, and is separated from the guest they are supporting, the care provider requires a paid admissions pas

Care provider guidelines are not applicable to children under the age of 8 since small children require the same level of supervision.
