Amica West Vancouver is an opportunity to move into a resort-style retirement residence where you might never need to leave the building. There’s everything you need plus many more luxuries that you come to appreciate after you move in. On top of all that, the staff here is very caring and diligent, going above and beyond.
OPAL represents an exciting new vision in senior care, offering superior senior living, with an upscale modern design and up-to-the minute technology, in an intergenerational living environment. This building, the flagship of Element Lifestyle Retirement Inc., has excited us here at Comfort Life, since we first heard about it in 2016.
I spent 21 days respite at Amica West Vancouver, following a total ankle replacement. Chris, Celeste, Concierge and all the staff were extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and professional the entire length of my stay. The food was excellent and the health and welfare checks were reliable and comforting. Recovery from surgery was expedited because of the care provided by Amica.
My mother spent the month of August in Respite at Amica Clyde Ave, after her fall. Our experience was a very good one with Chris Huggins and the staff members. They were helpful, friendly, and courteous at all times. The facilities and the food was excellent. My mother came home feeling much better, thanks to the staff.
We moved my mother to Amica from another care home last year. From day 1 the staff and management at Amica have been courteous, informative, and helpful. Grace and the rest of the care staff on the second floor are always cheerful and dedicated, with a real sense of teamwork and commitment. The facilities and food service are also excellent, but the most important function of daily health and personal care is absolutely first class.
Being in healthcare myself, I travel around BC in many senior care facilities, Amica is on my top list of the best. It took a lot for me to trust others with my grandmother's care. At Amica I feel at ease knowing she’s safe and well cared for... I love how at Amica the dining staff get to know their residents, even the family, too. First place I’ve been to that the chef will personally come and ask you about your meal.
Kindest staff you will ever meet. Moms new home for a week, the staff already feel like family
I feel so fortunate to have joined the Opal and to be living in this stressfree and most attractive environment! I love the multi-age concept and the diverse culture atmosphere here. The buildings are full of light and delightful art ,a lovely dining room with interesting menu choices, comfortable seating areas to enjoy conversations with interesting residents. Lots of choices of activities to join, makes life interesting! But what is most important to me is the staff and their welcoming, helpful and fun attitude with everyone they deal with ..... I feel very much at home at the Opal.
I was looking for an intergenerational community with Independent Living and licensed care options for my husband, who needs a licensed care suite, and me. I couldn't find a suitable community until my friend Stanley introduced OPAL to me. OPAL Licensed Care suites have 24-hour registered nurses, a team of healthcare aids, a rehab assistant, onsite physicians, recreation assistants, and an onsite dietician. I love OPAL recreation classes like gym, Zumba, Tai Chi, dance expressions, and bus tours. I have my favorites food in OPAL: double-boiled soup, Shanghaiese, and Cantonese food.
I do enjoy the life, the food and all the activities in Opal that's why I put the 5 stars for OPAL. My favorite activities are the exercising events such as dance class and pool. The culinary programs' "food" are the best. I love the Chinese and European style food. Everyday we have different menu that's the best! Every week we have a bus tour for field trip. Opal Recreation take us to many places that I never been before. They are amazing!
OPAL is a good place for seniors. Good food, cleaning weekly, and many activities to join. Air conditioning is a big advantage in this hot weather.
OPAL is definitely a gem. I was looking for a place for my mom who needs 24/7 care in the Vancouver area. I toured all of the top senior communities over three years and none was the right fit. Then came OPAL. I have high expectations on quality of the physical space, service, care and food. Our family members had multiple meals at OPAL with my mom and WOW! The food was as good as top restaurants and presentation, beautiful. I always promised my mom that I would never encourage her to move anywhere that I personally would not stay at. OPAL is a home run in every aspect. My usual lodging is the Shangri La or the Fairmont Pacific Rim when I visit, next time I'll request a hospitality suite at OPAL so I can stay close to my mom and enjoy the lifestyle. The staff, care team members and admin are all incredibly warm and kind. They run the senior community like it's a Four Seasons but better, with more service, amenities and tremendous kindness.
