THE MANOR VILLAGES STAYWELL MANOR

A sure sign of an exceptional community is long-term commitment on the part of residents. At StayWell Manor you’ll always find a number of residents who have lived here for five, seven, ten years, or longer. Many of those people will tell you that they’ve loved their entire time here and The Manor has become their home. What’s more is that staff turnover here is also low. Calgary seniors and families looking for a place to thrive need to take a close look at this community.

This community is exceptionally warm and friendly. You see people throughout this community who seem to have found a renewed joy in living. There's a lightness to life at Trinity Lodge. Staff demonstrate a personal connection to the needs of seniors. Trinity includes a focus on health and wellness that extends beyond the physical, to the emotional and spiritual. This is especially seen in the availability of in-house social features ranging from art classes to inclusive chapel services and much more.

It fit my mom and dad perfectly, especially with the different levels of care: independent, assisted, enhanced memory care, they go right through to palliative. After moving in, their health got better. My mom got off oxygen. They were eating better. My mom put on weight again [thanks to] the balanced diet. She got off her blood pressure medications in the last year. A lot of positive things happened just because of the lifestyle... It definitely prolonged their lives in a very positive way. It was home for them. My mom was on palliative for six months, so that was a big benefit, knowing that they could stay through their days together. It was just good for them that they were still on the same floor, with only a nurse's station in between them.

After bilateral knee replacement, I convalesced at Staywell Manor Village for a couple of weeks. The care I received at Staywell was excellent. I appreciated it when I was staying at Staywell, and I was even more thankful for it when I went home. The suite was roomy and very comfortable, the food was incredible, and when I needed help, it appeared with the push of a button. When I reacted to my medication, I got advice from an RN (Joseph) and an LPN (Sanu) right away, and I was able to see the in-house doctor (Dr. Arcega) the next day. Amazing!

I don’t think we could have picked a better spot for my 95 year old father to transition from his home where he lived independently. He participated in many activities at StayWell enjoying the company of his fellow residents and remained active until his final day at age 98. We could not have asked for more caring and supportive staff.

My mom lived at Staywell Manor for 6 years both in Assisted Living and Memory Care … I was always impressed how patient and caring the staff were ... All the staff provided exceptional support to our family during this difficult time.

Our mom had lived in the manor community for 3.5 years and during that time she was cared for by a devoted staff. All of our dealings with the Manor management were cordial and all facets of the operation were always carried out with mom’s best wishes in mind. Over the few years the family got to know the front of house staff, kitchen staff and the wonderful caring medical personnel that undertook all of mom’s needs.

My partner, Foster, was absolutely thrilled to have secured a furnished respite room at Trinity Lodge for nine days/nights, enjoying three exquisite meals a day, a variety of amenities, active engagement and enrichment programs, plus a most friendly, competent, and caring team. He was pleased with, and grateful for, every aspect of his experience there. We are both happy to recommend Trinity Lodge as your choice for elegant respite or inspired retirement living.

We have a top chef here and he's been here a long time! We also have terrific staff here. There's lots of things to do here. They have classes going on—baking classes, sewing classes, all the classes you can find. We have a huge room for exercise. They have drumming classes there and we have lots of fun. Lots of laughter! If you have a problem, they come in, and they keep up. I have no complaints at all!

My godmother Nina lived at Trinity for almost 11 years, until her declining health sadly necessitated her moving to a long term care facility. She loved living at Trinity and was very happy there; I think these were some of the happiest years of her life The staff is extraordinary and seem to know every resident right down to their stories. The level of care is very high and very personal. It is a happy place, busting with lovely activities and with a warm, caring and friendly atmosphere. We miss the delicious meals and her interesting friends, and we try to visit as often as possible. Each time we do, Nina is made to feel welcome and loved by staff and residents alike. We can't speak highly enough of Trinity. It is a very special place.

I just want to send a message to all the staff at Trinity Lodge. My mom lived there for six wonderful years. She was really well treated from the Front Desk, Nurses, Kitchen and Housekeeping Staff. She passed away last June 12 of this year. I will surely miss this place.

A very welcoming environment and staff (especially Edlyn and Paolo) greeted my family as we looked for the perfect retirement community for our parents. Immediately, we were struck by the genuiness, warmth and willingness to work together to ensure a smooth transition. We also were assured that our parents would be well cared for, safe, engaged and happy. Both of our parents have now moved in and are happily adjusting to their new lifestyles. We are relieved to see the wonderful attention and care they are receiving. I need to make an appointment with my parents now just to see them as they are so busy with new friends and activities! Also, the food is delicious!!
