CHATEAU GLENGARRY RETIREMENT

One of the best things about this small town retirement community is its combination of cozy intimacy with some of the pampering and amenities people in larger centres expect. Efficiency and diligent compassion are a hallmark of the staff’s attitude, highlighted when you hear how families talk about this community. Staff bring an old-fashioned work ethic to the care they offer seniors. This community may also appeal to people from Kingston and Ottawa wanting excellent care at rates that are more affordable than similar communities in those cities.

CHATEAU GLENGARRY RETIREMENT

There certainly is an improvement with mom's health since moving in. Her health has become more stable. She's getting her medicines on time. Everything is scheduled. She's changed since moving in. She used to be very anxious about things but now she doesn't bring that up any more.

Wolf Muller

They brought my father back to better health -- better than he had been for the past three years. Equally as important, they took away his loneliness. My heartfelt thanks to the entire staff. You gave my father a home and you gave me peace of mind.

Carol Larente

I cannot say enough kind words about care my mom received. They were always checking to make sure she was doing okay, if she needed anything, if they could do anything for her. 

Jennifer Asca-Nicholson

All staff went above the call of duty to make sure Uncle Gerald was comfortable and that he always felt like he was part of the Chateau.

BRUYèRE VILLAGE

As a community, Bruyère Village is built on a foundation of independence, support, and inclusivity. We are not a retirement home or long-term care facility, but a place where seniors can age in place, with access to flexible, personalized assisted living services when needed at no extra cost. Our Assisted Living Services for High-Risk Seniors program offers 24/7 supports from licensed staff right in tenants' apartments, allowing them to maintain autonomy without the need for disruptive moves. Tenants enjoy modern amenities such as full kitchens, in-suite laundry, and the option of beautiful river-view apartments overlooking the Ottawa River. For those seeking flexibility, we offer optional meal plans, and for seniors who prefer a fully managed experience, we provide an all-inclusive package in our beautiful bachelor suites. We offer a variety of organized activities and outings to keep tenants socially engaged. We also provide subsidized housing in some of our Villa apartments through the Ottawa Housing Registry, ensuring high-quality, affordable living options for all seniors. Conveniently located near shopping and amenities, the Bruyère Village offers a peaceful, safe nature-filled environment that enhances quality of life.
