One-to-one comparison

SOUTHBROOK RETIREMENT RESIDENCE

Southbrook is the right place for seniors who want to live in an active, involved community of peers. This home is exceptionally good at welcoming those who are skeptical about moving into seniors' care (trial stays are welcome, and staff is very warm). If making your own meals and doing your own housework has become tiresome, take Southbrook for a test.

Vitality seems to exude from every aspect of this community. All the interiors here are bright and clean. You see and hear interactions between staff and residents that are positive and cheerful, and rooted in patience and kindness. It's obvious that staff love working with the people here, working to create such a positive environment.

We were looking for a short-term place for my husband's mom at short notice and decided on Southbrook based on the reviews. We were not disappointed at all - from the time we did the tour till the day my mother-in-law came home after her stay. Safina went above and beyond to coordinate and work with us and the doctor's office in order to make the move-in dates possible for us. I cannot thank Safina enough for all looking after all the formalities to ensure that everything was organised even though she was going to be away when mom moved in. I never had a chance to meet Safina at move-in or move-out, but I felt so much at ease during our phone conversations in addition to the million emails that she took the time to patiently respond on time. Komalpreet was the nurse that did the initial tour for us and she is the sweetest nurse ever. We were so impressed by her positive and calm attitude and she also looked after mom-in-law very well. I did not meet the other nurses due to their shift schedule but was told by mom-in-law that all the nurses are really nice. And I must not forget about the lovely Alexa at reception - such a cheerful and fun young woman. We interacted with her a couple of times and she was such a joy to see at reception. All in all, we loved Southbrook for the size of the place, the residents there seemed like they were taken care of (I even chatted with a couple folks and they were happy with the services), the food menu is delicious and lots of activities for seniors. Southbrook will definitely be our first choice if we have to pick a home for mom-in-law in the future.

In my first visit at Southbrook Retirement Residence, I was fortunate to meet Ms. Safina Jivraj, Community Relations, who organized the facility tour. She was gracious, polite, and informative about the terms and the conditions of occupancy and appreciated my challenge of selling my home and a car in the United States prior to my move to Canada.
At this point, I committed myself without hesitation to stay at Southbrook Retirement Residency in Brampton.
Additionally, Ms. Marissa McIntosh, Social Director, is another person who should be acknowledged for her willingness to assist with the homecoming. Finally, I wish to acknowledge that I have made the right decision to stay at the Southbrook Retirement Residence. The staff have been polite, helpful, understanding, and respectful. The residents are treated respectfully and services are performed in a timely fashion.

My mum stayed at Southbrook for a week to check out the place and see if this place was for her. I must say the staff was very professional, caring, and most of all so accommodating. Safina, Marisa went over and above to make her stay a comfortable one. The food was delicious, hygienically prepared, and lots of variety. The rooms are spacious, clean, and very bright. They have daily entertainment of some sort Mon-Fri so this is a place I would definitely recommend for your loved one if you want to have peace of mind that they are being cared for and well looked after in your absence. Staff made her stay a memorable one!

My mother has resided at Southbrook for exactly 4 weeks now. I live across the country, so I haven’t actually been to the facility yet, but both my mother and my brother (who lives nearby) are extremely pleased so far. They both rave about the meals and the friendly, helpful staff. From day, one, I have been in frequent contact with the administrative, care, and nursing teams, and I am extremely impressed by the organization, attention to detail and diligence with which this residence appears to operate. It’s early days in my mother's journey at Southbrook, so I feel it’s premature to give it a full five stars. However, we are very pleased so far and relieved to have Mom living there. It feels as if she’s in very good hands. Thanks Southbrook team for all you do do on a daily basis to make my family’s life so much easier, and in Mom’s case, so much better.

My parents recently moved into Southbrook Retirement Residence and the support and care they received has been exemplary.

My father-in-law has been well cared for. Food, services [like] cleaning, healthcare are all very good. They have entertainment for the seniors weekly with different activities scheduled including exercise classes. They care for each person individually.

My mother has always been happy making new friends. This time she could not miss Teodora at EverGreen Retirement Community, a very nice lady who likes to [have] fun with people -- and on the other hand get things done seriously and smartly. As the result my father not only decided to try Evergreen Retirement Community but also asks my mother to join him. So today is a big day for them: they found a new home with impressive services and professionalism, with welcoming surprises.

Evergreen Retirement Home in Mississauga is one of the best retirement homes in Ontario. I would like first to express my gratitude to Mrs Teodora Elez , community relations manager helped me a lot in settling my father in a short period of time in their assisted living. I am grateful to all her efforts. Secondly, I would like to thank every person working in the home from the: 1-Front desk: Uma and her friendly and welcoming smile. 2-Nurses in 2nd floor and their dedicated work. 3-PSW in 2d floor and their dedicated work in showering and changing clothes. 4-Chefs in the kitchen and their yummy menu. 5-Room service and their cleaning work. Everyone is welcoming and helping. I would like to thank each person in this home . I would definitely recommend it to any senior. I rate them ***** Five Stars Retirement Home

It feels like family. This retirement community is amazing the nurses are very friendly and caring. The manager Melody is very kind and attentive. Any issues you have, just go directly to her and she will be able to help to you. I am very grateful to have my father staying and becoming a member of the Evergreen family.

We have visited several retirement homes, and from the moment we met Teodoro Elez in the beautifully bright atrium, we knew we were in the right place for me. Teodora was understanding of my needs immediately. She gave me several options and seemed to know what I would enjoy. I made my mind up on the spot that Evergreen will be lovely new home for the rest of my life. Teodora is such a kind and caring person as were Brendan, Melody, Teresa and Marlene, the other staff I had the pleasure of meeting.
