Since I moved my 2 uncles to Grandview Retirement Residence I have seen much improvement in their health and overall mood. The activities this home has keeps my uncles active both mentally and physically. The staff is so friendly and helpful. They know each residence by name. They are very honouring and treat the residents with genuine respect. The place is immaculately clean. When an issue arises, the staff 9 out of 10 respond courteously and efficiently. They are quick at problem-solving. I especially had a concern for one of my uncles who was operating on 20% use of his kidneys prior to moving into the home. Since bringing him to Grandview Retirement, his kidney function has increased to 25%; something unheard of in the nephrology clinic. I was so pleased with the Executive Chef Ezio, going above and beyond the call of duty to ensure my uncle received nutritious, healthy, well-balanced meals. My uncles have gained their independence back since they moved here and I have peace of mind knowing they are well looked after. Thank you to all staff, but a special thanks to the 2 Ritasat reception, Christine the nurse, Chef Ezio, Catherine in Sales and the Maintenance Staff. You have made life pleasurable again for the Ganja brothers and friends, and have taken a huge burden off me.

Catherine Hall [is] an absolute pleasure to work with... she shows she cares, a gift that is very special and rare. We know a gentleman who is now a resident of Grandview and he so enjoys it.

Grandview Retirement Living in Stoney Creek, Ontario is a wonderful place for seniors to live & thrive and I highly recommend booking a tour/meeting to find out everything this retirement home has to offer. Honestly, you won't be disappointed. The home is beautiful, the staff are amazing and the food is delicious! They also offer a variety of activities/events and the seniors currently living there are so friendly & welcoming to all. My parents transitioned from their home of 40+ years to their new home effortlessly. They are truly happy, relaxed and I have peace of mind knowing my parents are safe, respected and well cared for.

When I decided to check out Grandview Retirement Living (GRL), Catherine Hall showed me around and a Studio that was available to rent. I first met Catherine at a Seniors Club, Club 60, where she provided a very nice Luncheon, with all sorts of sandwiches, fruit, vegetable's and cakes. Righr from the start I new I'd like her. She was warm and friendly, with a great smile. She answered all our question and more. I moved in on the 1 October 2022 and have no regrets. All the staff are quite friendly and greet you, with your name and a smile. Rita(s) at the front desk, are always friendly and willing to help you as best they can. The Chef has a great selection of meals, that are very tasty and meets everyone's needs and special diets. Judy, the Manager of activities, is a ball of fire. Always on the go, running and organizing all the activities, and there are a lot of things to do daily. Judy is another great person on the GRL staff, that is always willing to help you. All in all, it's been a great experience and I'm looking forward for many years to come.

This summer I had the pleasure of meeting with Catherine who is in charge of new residents moving in and having a grand tour of this beautiful retirement home. The amount of activities that are available to their residents inside the home itself is plentiful and one would never get bored living in this setting.

The staff were so friendly and caring. The facility was warm, inviting, and clean. Sadly our Dad was there just a short time - he had only good things to say. He really, really liked the food.

All the staff, are so personable. Beds are made and room cleaned daily.

I could not ask for a more caring and dedicated group of people. The Wellington has proven to be a wonderful place. During the Pandemic..they protected residents like they were their own loved ones...keeping their Spirits up with music, dance and "Wacky Hair Days” posted regularly on Facebook. During the time when we were unable to visit ... the staff made regular Skype calls for the Residents.The Wellington turned out to be the best place for my Mother.

My Mother received excellent care while a resident at The Wellington. The Wellington has caring and highly qualified nursing and personal support staff as well as a fabulous Residents Support Services Unit that works very hard to provide residents with interesting, fun and entertaining activities on a daily basis. All staff have done an amazing job keeping the residents safe and entertained during the present COVID -19 outbreak.
