AMICA PICKERING

Amica has a name for building excellent seniors' communities, where you can place your trust in them. Amica has built that reputation over 30 years, giving seniors dignity, comfort, and choice in more than 30 residences nationwide. Still very new, Amica Pickering manifests those values, and seniors flourish here.

VIVA PICKERING

This residence is ideal for Durham Region seniors who want to improve their lives by enjoying the best that life has to give, in a full-fledged care facility easily accessible to families from throughout the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Two exceptional features of this home are the large suites and the superb dining room that combines a cozy interior with delicious food. You'll look and feel so much better, with the onsite beauty salon and spa, the exercise room, and the in-house wellness centre.

Loved it. Residents are great.

VIVA PICKERING

My parents have been living at VIVA Pickering for 2 years. They absolutely love it. They feel like they’re part of a community. They have made friends with other community members and staff as well. It’s the best decision they’ve made.

I'm very very impressed with the employees and volunteers that work here. They always do their best to help me with any concerns I have and listen to what I have to say. They even take time to tell me jokes when they see me. Everyone is very friendly, especially the servers.

My dad lives here. The staff are friendly and helpful and the place is kept clean. Tons of amenities for the residents to use.

A few days ago I was offered a Lamb meal which was prepared by the Culinary staff members of Viva Pickering Retirement Community. Generally speaking, I'm not a very foody or greedy person, but man, that Lamb meal was so flavorful and nicely prepared, I was forced to ask for a second serving. Angel, your food is always nicely prepared, but wow, that Lamb was one level above excellent. After eating that meal, I'm pleased to report that I was truly served a meal prepared by an Angel. Thanks for all that you do Angel. Huge thank you and Congratulations to you and your entire team.

I wanted to say thank you to all the staff, for all their hard work and diligence keeping all the residents, especially my parents safe, during Covid. The nursing team managed by Kelly Turcotte are amazing and very helpful. I’d like to also mention Matthew Uy and his team have gone above and beyond their duties with my parents.
