THE VILLAGE AT UNIVERSITY GATES

This community began as exclusively long term care, which will still be a key part of the Village. The spectrum of options will include both assisted living and memory care. This will make it ideal for couples with different care needs to remain together in the same community, if one spouse is independent, but the other requires care. It’s also ideal for families and seniors who anticipate shifting care needs in the future. You won’t need to move again.

We had an amazing time with our mother Lein Schout for her 101 bday a great visit and dinner at the Ruby restaurant.

Beautiful residence. Great staff. Truly a village atmosphere.

The Ruby Restaurant is located on the 10th floor and has an incredible view. We all enjoyed our lunches. Salads are fresh and tasty, fish and chips were excellent and desserts delicious. Our waitress was excellent and the Chef came to introduce himself. I liked the fact that we were able to chat with one another in a relaxed setting and hear one another! Cocktails, wine and beer available, and other non-alcoholic drinks. There is handicapped parking. Everyone was so friendly here.

All staff, nurses, and doctors are the best, and caring.

A very home-like and caring atmosphere.

Both my dad and I have had very positive experience with staff. They're happy to answer questions. I do think one of the significant changes is actually how I feel. It has given me great relief. I used to have a lot of sleepless nights. I was always worried about: what if something happened? I just feel so much relief and confidence. I know that many times a day someone is coming in to provide medication or to take his temperature or whatever. If he didn't show up at the dining room, someone would come and check... I think this relates to the social [aspect] as well. It was getting pretty isolating in his apartment. I know that if he wants to be engaged with other people, he can go out the door and find other people. That has been huge for me, too.

I live here, and enjoy it.

My father lived at the village and not a day went by that I ever had any doubt that he was receiving the best of care.

Staff were wonderful to my Dad even though he was only there for 2 months... I would recommend this place to anyone.

When we visit, it feels as 'homey' as it can for anyone with a family member with Alzheimer's Disease. None of us mind going there, it's so bright and welcoming with many comforts... Staff are terrific.

Our Village is a proud part of a Canadian family tradition of community building that goes back 70 years. The first Schlegel family home became the foundation of what Schlegel Villages is today. Here at The Village at University Gates, we offer several lifestyle options to meet a variety of needs. Our continuum of care allows for residents to age with us in place as their needs change. The residents we serve come from a range of backgrounds that thread together the fabric of our community, and while we know resident-centredness is a term that many lean on these days, we truly do focus on each individual’s wishes to guide our approach to service. Our Signature Programs help us focus on the individuality of each resident we serve. Our LIVING in My Today dementia care philosophy, for example, was developed by our team and our partners alongside people with lived experience. This provides our team the opportunity to learn exactly what it means to support a person who is experiencing the changing perceptions of dementia. We also celebrate the Wisdom of the Elder as another Signature Program, thanks to the inspiration of our founder Ron Schlegel. Ron once said: “The greatest untapped resource in Canada, if not the world, is the collective wisdom of our elders,” and we honour the individual and collective wisdom of those we serve in ways large and small.
