WATERSIDE - A VIVA RETIREMENT COMMUNITY

Waterside Retirement Community in Carleton Place is the kind of place we dream of retiring to when we get to that age. Overlooking the Mississippi River, near pleasant shops in this peaceful village, it’s a seniors’ oasis. And still, it’s just a half hour away from Ottawa, making it ideal for seniors with family in the west end of the city.

WILDPINE RETIREMENT RESIDENCE

The friendly, welcoming atmosphere of Wildpine Retirement Residence reflects traditional values. This very modern community gives its senior residents healthy, happy personal interaction, with amenities and activities designed for people with a variety of abilities. The fitness room is a highlight of the amenities. People who move in here may be surprised how much they love the community of peers with the same life experiences and interests.

My uncle stayed at Waterside for over 2 years the staff and employees were very accommodating, respectful and very friendly. The residence is amazingly clean. the food is very tasty. with all the activities they offer. I would be hard not to find something to do. Whether you need a place for the short term, or longer, this would be a good decision.

I stayed at Waterside for two weeks after hip replacement surgery. The entire staff is amazing! It is apparent that the team thoroughly enjoy working together which made my stay so positive.

Recently, my mom and dad made Waterside their new home, and they have settled in quickly, making new friends, enjoying the events and facilities, and the meals. They chose Waterside (above other homes) because they were made to feel welcome right from their first visit, and the bright openness of the rooms was an attraction for them. Trigger and her team made their move easy and stress-free, and the staff team has been terrific in taking care of their needs. I am happy to see them so comfortable there.

Waterside has the best of everything. Medical staff on duty, great food. [There are] many events if you’re active, both within Waterside and also by bus. [There’s] your own garden plot, a saltwater pool, movies, entertainment, also a bar. Who could ask for more?

Moving a loved one into a retirement community is not easy, it's a big change for everyone and a stressful decision. I will always be grateful to Heather Luneburg for taking the time to clearly communicate the benefits of Waterside and for her diligent follow-up and help with planning. She is not only kind and patient but clearly an expert on all aspects of senior living. I learned a lot and feel better prepared for this next stage of my family's life. She is the ideal ambassador for this beautiful facility.

So impressed with the friendly and helpful staff at Wildpine. Coming from the Maritimes, Mom has settled in nicely. She’s enjoying all the activities, delicious food and new friends. Thank you to all the staff who work so hard to provide such a great place for Mom to call home.

The staff at Wildpines are very good at knowing the needs of each of their tenants! They really personalize the approach with the family and the tenants. So many people to thank Gordon, Nicole, Jennifer Shari, all the front desk staff, all the PSW staff, and if I am missing someone thank you. It helps during a stressful time.

The entire residential staff cares immensely for the resident's happiness and health. I would recommend this residence to anyone looking for an opinion, as they go above and beyond! Keep up the great work!

My mother has been an independent living resident for the past couple of years; however, due to her changing healthcare needs, we needed to move her to the dependent living floor. While I envisioned that this would have been a negative experience from my mother's perspective, it has been nothing but positive. During my visit with my mom today she expressed how much she loves the service at her new location. It’s the right amount of care for her needs. I was thrilled to hear that I and I wanted to share that with you all.

My parents transitioned from their home to a double suite at Wildpine in August of 2021. The assisted living floor was their 1st stop and then after my dad passed my mom moved to an independent living floor and was quite content. Wildpine is the best residential facility in Stittsville. The administration, medical, culinary, recreation and awesome custodial staff are compassionate helpful supportive, and wonderfully inclusive. Your elders’ needs are met with service excellence at Wildpine. The entire staff provides wrap-around care for your loved ones - which is also care for me too.
