Governors Walk’s setting in a historic monastery hints at the disciplined compassion at work here. There seems to be a good spirit that flows through this place. It’s communal living with heart and soul, founded today on the staff’s enthusiasm for caring for seniors.
We could highlight many exceptional things about this community, but memory care at the Ravines' is offered by experts highly specialized in this sphere. The interior design focuses on neighbourhoods, where dementia patients live in familiar surroundings that avoid the confusion created by more clinical environments. The Ravines' Healthy Minds Program is multi-faceted, focused on providing compassionate, well-rounded care for seniors with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia. Included in the program are support groups for family and other loved ones, music therapy that stimulates memory and positive interaction, staff trained in the Gentle Persuasive Approach, therapy through multi-sensory environments, and other components.
A member of my family was at Governor's Walk for 6 days of respite care post-surgery in February 2024. We were happy with everything. The staff and the nurses were caring and interested yet non-intrusive. We saw several times when the staff went out of their way to help their resident (eg.; the receptionist getting a resident a blanket from another floor bc the resident was cold at movie night; a confused resident reassured that she wasn't lost and taken back to her room.) The room was comfortable and charming with its bay window and walk-in shower. The renovations look great and there will soon be an activity room on the first floor. The food was good and varied. I highly recommend the bran muffins. Also, the parking was plentiful and convenient so it made our visits easy. We would return here in an instant. The staff were sweet calling it a "Hotel Stay" not respite care! Thank you, Governor's Walk.
In December 2021 I started my fourth year at Governors Walk. Every day I feel fortunate to live in such a wonderful home where the staff at all levels is caring, sensitive and competent. My suite as well as all common areas are kept clean, the dining room is attractive and the food well above average. My husband was bedridden for 2 months and died in September 2021. The care and affection he received were exceptional. I don't think I could find a better place to live.
I have lived at Governors Walk for 4 years and love it. The food is great and the staff are very helpful. They are always warm and caring. I highly recommend Governors Walk.
My aunt has been at this residence for years. She loves the food and friendly atmosphere.
My thanks to staff for their excellent help as I was at the Ravines for respite care for a hip replacement.
There are lots of things I appreciate about Ravines. I think the most significant benefit for me as a caregiver for my dad is that I'm seeing people that I know, who work there, other residents, and it's all part of a community where you don't feel like you're on your own. That's a big [relief] for me... Dad has some challenges with his memories and then he had a fall, and when he came out of the hospital, it was so nice to know that he had this place to go to, to transition to a place where he had more care.
Sunday February 7th, 2021 was a very special day for the residents of the Ravines. Monitored by Ottawa Public Health, our first COVID-19 Moderna Vaccines were given to us by teams of uniformed Ottawa Paramedics moving through our buildings door to door in a well planned routine... There had been significant planning by our excellent Managers and every employee worked so efficiently that we were even able to have lunch! Congratulations on a job well done! One month later on March 7th, 2021 we repeated our successful vaccination treatment with our second Moderna vaccines and the teams of Paramedics. In July, 2021 we achieved our goal of 100% of residents and 100% of staff having been vaccinated. We're proud and relieved to have to have achieved this level of safety and health protection. On September 2nd, 2021 we were given booster injections by nurses from the Ottawa Health Department. Our General Manager, Sam Sourchi, and all the staff planned and organized and followed up so that everything went smoothly.
My parents were residents of the Ravines Seniors' Suites and then the Retirement Residence from 2014 to 2021. The staff and management were caring, friendly and helpful. At times when my parents required additional assistance, staff was there to help and then followed-up to make sure that everything was okay. Sam Sourchi, the General Manager, is a skilled and proficient manager, who was able to resolve issues which at times felt impossible to resolve. The facilities are pleasant, clean and safe. This is definitely a nice place to live.
My mom lives here and she loves it.
