The team at Chartwell is without a doubt, some of the most kind, caring and compassionate folks around! My mom enjoyed her time with them and benefitted from many good folks offering her time and attention. Her suite was spacious and well-appointed, the meals were varied and well-prepared and the activities plentiful. A smaller community of residents than many other retirement locations made this a preferred choice. The opportunity to meet other residents in a smaller close-knit community was ideal.

In a city where we have many choices of seniors' residences, what makes a facility exceptional, is the staff. To that end, the staff at Fountains are exceptional. Kind. Compassionate. Patient. Engaged. Aware. Professional. Accommodating. Friendly. Fun. The list goes on. From day one, my mother-in-law has enjoyed living at Fountains. She often comments how lucky she is to have moved to a place where she has independence, the assistance she needs—and people looking out for her. She sincerely cherishes the staff. Lots of fun banter back and forth! The facility is smaller than many; the residents know each other; and the staff knows each of the residents. Fountains truly is an extension of family.

I moved my mom into the residence at the beginning of this year and already I see so many positives with my mom's movement, the friends she has made, and her happiness. I thank the staff that treat her like an equal and a person. The smile on my mom's face is all I need to know that I have found the perfect place for her.

My mother has thrived since moving to the Fountains of Mission Retirement Residence 8 years ago. She is very active and happy and for that, we are so grateful. Thank you to the staff at Fountains of Mission, all of whom are so friendly and caring towards the residents and their families.

I would like to share the greatness and kindness that the staff of Fountains of Mission has provided for my dad. My father became a widower at 94 and had been living at home still. After the dead of my mother he became lonely and depressed, yet he was not ready to move into a home. Fountains of Mission allowed him to try a short stay at the home which allowed my dad to experience the environment. He approved but was still reluctant to do the permanent move. He realized he could not be at home by himself and decided to move into the home. He has been there for 4 months now and has become a healthier man again. He is no longer depressed and is happy with the help and guidance he gets from the staff . He is happy with the food that is served. He has a social environment that he enjoys and the surrounding area is beautiful. He is happy he made the move he says.

My partner, Foster, was absolutely thrilled to have secured a furnished respite room at Trinity Lodge for nine days/nights, enjoying three exquisite meals a day, a variety of amenities, active engagement and enrichment programs, plus a most friendly, competent, and caring team. He was pleased with, and grateful for, every aspect of his experience there. We are both happy to recommend Trinity Lodge as your choice for elegant respite or inspired retirement living.

We have a top chef here and he's been here a long time! We also have terrific staff here. There's lots of things to do here. They have classes going on—baking classes, sewing classes, all the classes you can find. We have a huge room for exercise. They have drumming classes there and we have lots of fun. Lots of laughter! If you have a problem, they come in, and they keep up. I have no complaints at all!

My godmother Nina lived at Trinity for almost 11 years, until her declining health sadly necessitated her moving to a long term care facility. She loved living at Trinity and was very happy there; I think these were some of the happiest years of her life The staff is extraordinary and seem to know every resident right down to their stories. The level of care is very high and very personal. It is a happy place, busting with lovely activities and with a warm, caring and friendly atmosphere. We miss the delicious meals and her interesting friends, and we try to visit as often as possible. Each time we do, Nina is made to feel welcome and loved by staff and residents alike. We can't speak highly enough of Trinity. It is a very special place.

I just want to send a message to all the staff at Trinity Lodge. My mom lived there for six wonderful years. She was really well treated from the Front Desk, Nurses, Kitchen and Housekeeping Staff. She passed away last June 12 of this year. I will surely miss this place.

A very welcoming environment and staff (especially Edlyn and Paolo) greeted my family as we looked for the perfect retirement community for our parents. Immediately, we were struck by the genuiness, warmth and willingness to work together to ensure a smooth transition. We also were assured that our parents would be well cared for, safe, engaged and happy. Both of our parents have now moved in and are happily adjusting to their new lifestyles. We are relieved to see the wonderful attention and care they are receiving. I need to make an appointment with my parents now just to see them as they are so busy with new friends and activities! Also, the food is delicious!!
