One-to-one comparison

SCARBOROUGH RETIREMENT RESIDENCE

Scarborough Retirement Residence combines proximity to the heart of Toronto with a down-home, family-owned feeling. It’s a relatively small community, where staff can tailor care to individual’s needs. There’s a genuine sense of compassion that comes through in everything they do here. Management is sincere, caring, detail-oriented, and focused on the comfort of seniors. Senior living is truly their life's passion as you’ll discover.

RETIREMENT SUITES BY THE LAKE

The Suites is a close-knit community of seniors near the Scarborough Bluffs, one of the best natural settings in the entire GTA. Living at the Suites, you can choose to partake of "just enough" activities, as listed on the calendar. There are shared activities ranging from crafts to board games to just sitting out on the patio in summer, chatting with friends. That atmosphere is casual, though, and if you want to spend time reading or watching TV in your suite, you can do that, too. Suites are all spacious private units.

It is a lovely place for seniors. The staff are all very friendly. Lots of activities. I would highly recommend Scarborough Retirement Home.

I assisted my friend with her move into her new home at Scarborough Retirement Residence yesterday. I know that she had toured several retirement residences before making her final decision. She had also spent two weeks a month earlier to ensure she was making the right decision. As I entered the building, I was quite pleased with the cleanliness of the home. The hallways were well lit and the interaction between the staff and the residents was heart-warming. I spent 3 hours there and observed residents and staff in different areas. It was clear to me that the residents were well cared for. Everywhere I turned, I noticed different members of staff chatting with the residents and calling them by name. I loved that! I was also quite impressed to see the menu as well as other notices that were posted on the bulletin boards. I left there feeling quite confident that my friend had chosen the right place. Had I been looking for a retirement residence to live, I would not hesitate in making this my home, and believe me, my standards are very high!

I had the privilege of staying there for a week while my cousin was being transferred to long term care. I can't say enough good things about SRR - They have done a tremendous job of creating a welcoming community and a true home for the residents!

Small, well-maintained facility where residents are very well cared for.

My mom, and grandmother in law are residents there for almost 2 years. The care they have been provided is stellar! They truly care about their residents. The extra care and caution used during this Covid crisis makes me so much more comfortable about their safety. Thank you.

My family and I have been very happy with the care and concern by the staff at RSBL.

Went for a tour today. Highly impressed with both Diane Shaddock, the Community Engagement Manager and the staff we met. Diane provided us with so much information to help in our decision process. She is kind and compassionate. She had suggestions on room location, ideas to help with transition and was a very positive person. We left feeling WOW!

I was looking for a short term stay for my father who is undergoing knee surgery and although we ultimately decided to go somewhere closer to home, we still had an amazing experience with the staff. Diane gave us a tour and her energy was magnetic. She was so personable, funny, welcoming and enthusiastic. The other staff were also just as friendly and made this home a real joy to visit. Thanks to Scarborough Retirement Suites by the Lake, my family and I really enjoyed our visiting experience and should we ever need full time care, this is definitely a home we will strongly consider.

What a lovely homelike facility. The staff here work together like family and that vibe permeated all the interactions I had in making preparations for my mum to reside here for a respite stay. Despite the complications I encountered in completing the necessary requirements I felt supported in every step. Diane in particular made sure we had everything we needed, and her patient and kind guidance was so very appreciated at a stressful time. Cassandra was still helping me on the phone long after she had left work for the day. I look forward to the next time I need help with mums care while I am away. I need look no further than RSBL.

My two week stay at “Retirement Suites By the Lake” was beyond my expectations. I was at “ The Spa” ( as I liked to call it ) to recuperate from a knee replacement and was met with supportive and caring attention by all the staff . My suite was immaculate, the food delicious, but most importantly, the concern , compassion and encouragement for my well being , by everyone involved , was over whelming . A special thanks to Diane and Cassandra , who made the arrangements for my stay , and subsequently my two week visit , so enjoyable .
