PORT CREDIT RESIDENCES - VERVE SENIOR LIVING

Innovation and newness are a hallmark of life at Port Credit Residences. This was one of the first GTA communities to employ the Brain Gym program, which helps train seniors in improving their memory and handling stress. The program even throws in some physical exercise. The availability of the community's nurse practitioner was also a Toronto first, when the building opened in 2011. Visiting "therapy dogs" are one more aspect of life at Port Credit Residences that make this community stand out.

My Aunt has lived here for the last 4 years and now unfortunately she must move on to Long Term Care. I couldn't leave without telling other people how Fabulous this place is! Port Credit Residences has very friendly, caring and helpful staff that always try to do their very best! The residence is clean and welcoming and has lots of activities for the residents. The food is great and varied. And it's in a terrific location - so close to everything. I always felt peaceful & secure in knowing my aunt was well looked after between my weekly visits. Thanks again to all the Staff for all their hard work! :-)

My mother-in-law lived in the Port Credit Residences... in the nicest one bedroom suite. It had a beautiful view of a park and a swimming pool. The facility was great, the food excellent and staff really made the difference. I used to drop in on my walk home from the GO Station to say hello to her. She was very well taken care of there until her passing. Recently I had a reason to reach out to the Residences to try and find help for someone very dear to me. Unannounced I walked in one day and ended up speaking to some of the nursing staff. I left a message and before I knew it Eva Triolo (the manager) called me. She remembered my mother-in-law and generously took the time to help me find the help I was looking for. I cannot speak highly enough about the facility and satff. They are the best.

So vibrant and active. It's an environment I'd pick for myself. We've had a lot of comfort with my mom being there. The residence was very welcoming for my mom. When you have a coffee in the common area, you get a feeling for what the community is like [and] my mom chose this because she found it friendly and warm.

Our mother lived for over six years in this most wonderful retirement home. I cannot say enough in praise of Port Credit Residences; a well run establishment. The staff at PRC are very caring and go above and beyond their job descriptions in making their residences feel at home and their families welcome. The staff became our friends; all of them from the ladies in the front office, to the reception desk, nurse practitioner, nursing staff, dining room, recreational staff and maintenance were all caring and helpful. The chefs prepare delicious, inventive meals every day. Special attention is always put forth in celebration of all calendar events. I want to give a word of thanks to Jackie and Eva who were our first contacts at PCR. We were convinced from the first meeting that we had made a good choice of retirement home for our mother. These ladies continued to be thoughtful and helpful throughout my mother’s stay. During the past few years dealing with Covid 19, strict protocols were put in place and adhered to. We all felt safe and protected. When it was time for my mother to move on to long term care recently, she was very sad to leave all her friends that she had made here. Our family can honestly say that our feelings about Port Credit Residences, as a great place to live, have not changed from the day we first visited, over six years ago.

Mom has recently moved into Port Credit Residences and is still in her 14 day quarantine period. Fabulous meals are delivered to her door, enough for sharing or tucking in a mini fridge for later. The room is spacious and cleaned weekly for residents. She occupies her time watching children playing in the park or on the skating rink. A nurse visits regularly for temperature checks to ensure resident health safety. Jigsaws are delivered to the door, during quarantine, with a simple call to reception or a note left outside the door. And activity staff regularly provide games to challenge the mind. Her favourite day so far, her birthday, when a glass of white wine was delivered with best wishes. Can't wait for the okay for her to be able to join in and wander about with other resident, we are counting the days. A shout-out to Eva and Jackie, thank you for making her feel welcome.

I recently moved my parents to the Shores of Port Credit, and the staff has been very welcoming. Everyone we met, from the managers to the concierges and nurses, has been friendly and accommodating — making my parents' transition to a retirement community comfortable and smooth. The building itself is well-located and quite new, with many amenities and activities for residents on-site. With the different levels of care available, I know my parents will be safe and supported, should their needs change. If you have any questions, I would recommend Bradley Watson. He and others there have been very helpful and quick with answers and suggestions whenever I have questions.

Recently had a tour of this fantastic residence in Port Credit. The shared spaces are so beautiful and airy. The individual suite I saw was so bright and well laid out. All the amenities that are available to residents are remarkable: cafe, wine storage units, game room, and on and on. The staff are wonderful to work and collaborate with. Looking forward to spending more time in this glorious space.

Professional service and care from Bradley and staff. The Shores of PC was the one and only place my Mother-in-law viewed. She didn't care to see other places as she was more than pleased and impressed with The Shores. Administration accommodated my MIL's requests, which made her transition much easier. Kenny and Ellis, made the move-in day seamless and are always available to help or just around to greet you with a friendly smile and chat. Friends and family who have visited can't believe it's a retirement residence:) Big, bright, stylish, like a boutique residence. Truly the gem of Retirement Residences.

During my recent visit to the facility to gather information about their services, I was thoroughly impressed. This establishment stands out as one of the finest state-of-the-art Senior Care facilities in Mississauga. Bradley, one of the managers who assisted us, was truly exceptional. He went above and beyond to provide us with a wealth of informative material. I couldn't have asked for a more informative and pleasant experience.

Beautiful and elegant with a fantastic location not far from the lake.
