One-to-one comparison

CEDAR SPRINGS PARC

This home is ideal for many reasons but is especially appealing to outdoor enthusiasts who will love the many trails nearby. Many residents who move here find a new or renewed love for exploring; hiking, canoeing and kayaking become new interests. Cedar Springs offers an almost implausible number of attractions.

AMICA WEST VANCOUVER

Amica West Vancouver is an opportunity to move into a resort-style retirement residence where you might never need to leave the building. There’s everything you need plus many more luxuries that you come to appreciate after you move in. On top of all that, the staff here is very caring and diligent, going above and beyond.

CEDAR SPRINGS PARC

My mother moved into Cedar Springs PARC in August 2023. She loved her apartment, it was bright and very quiet. The staff were always very welcoming, helpful and they all knew her by name very quickly. She loved not having to think about meals, just go down to the dining room, sit with friends and enjoy the fantastic food placed before you! Unfortunately, mum passed away in December and again, the team at Cedar Springs were available to support us during this difficult time. I would recommend Cedar Springs PARC to anyone thinking of making the move to retirement living.

My parents moved in July 2021 and what a difference Cedar Springs has made to their lives! They’ve expanded their social circle by attending happy hours and discussion groups, they enjoy at least one excursion a month, and both love the food. Recently they enjoyed a wine tasting and food pairing event - they have a richer social than I do! The staff is always very helpful, understanding and friendly. We always joke that it’s like living on a cruise ship but it really is. They love the quiet, park-like setting of the Mt Seymour area with services and amenities just across the road in Parkgate Village, too. Very happy with Cedar Springs!

My mom called Cedar Springs Parc home for almost 10 years. Last year she passed away. Throughout the entire time living at Cedar Springs, the staff treated her with the utmost kindness and compassion. When the pandemic surfaced, the staff and larger organization were excellent in caring for all the residents, providing clear, well-thought-out communications and working hard to ensure the safety of staff, residents and families. When my mom passed, they were there every step of the way supporting my family with prompt, professional service. The staff and facilities are top notch and I would highly recommend them.

It exceeds all expectations! My Mother was one of the first 11 years ago to reside. Now 98.5 , it probably kept her alive an extra five to eight years. Great people , ambience , staff , management , and nurse. Can not say enough good about Cedar Springs. Outstanding all around!!!! The Best staff and Management - a Big Thank you, our family will miss the special occasion events & the private dining option- we could go on….

[Since moving in, Mom] is much healthier now and having great meals regularly. The structured exercise and activities provide a much healthier environment than she had, living isolated at home. Also, if she wants a social cocktail, she has a lovely communal fireside area where she can sit down, have a glass of wine, and people join her for a friendly chat. She’s playing more bridge than she did at home, and she is going on afternoon walks with friends she has met there. I always look at Cedar Springs as kind of a stationary cruise ship – just without the seasickness! What a break for some of these people who have been working their whole lives, looking after their children and grandchildren. It’s perfect!

I spent 21 days respite at Amica West Vancouver, following a total ankle replacement. Chris, Celeste, Concierge and all the staff were extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and professional the entire length of my stay. The food was excellent and the health and welfare checks were reliable and comforting. Recovery from surgery was expedited because of the care provided by Amica.

My mother spent the month of August in Respite at Amica Clyde Ave, after her fall. Our experience was a very good one with Chris Huggins and the staff members. They were helpful, friendly, and courteous at all times. The facilities and the food was excellent. My mother came home feeling much better, thanks to the staff.

We moved my mother to Amica from another care home last year. From day 1 the staff and management at Amica have been courteous, informative, and helpful. Grace and the rest of the care staff on the second floor are always cheerful and dedicated, with a real sense of teamwork and commitment. The facilities and food service are also excellent, but the most important function of daily health and personal care is absolutely first class.

Being in healthcare myself, I travel around BC in many senior care facilities, Amica is on my top list of the best. It took a lot for me to trust others with my grandmother's care. At Amica I feel at ease knowing she’s safe and well cared for... I love how at Amica the dining staff get to know their residents, even the family, too. First place I’ve been to that the chef will personally come and ask you about your meal.

Kindest staff you will ever meet. Moms new home for a week, the staff already feel like family
