There are a number of things about this community that make it easy to move here. There's the encouragement to personalize your suite with effects from your home. Another is the warmth of staff, who create a strong sense of kinship and community. Here, community includes not just every senior, but staff and family of residents. Adult children love how they are included in all important discussions.
For all of the features on site, people make Mulberry PARC great. It bills itself as "a welcoming community," and that's truly a focus. The knitting group is just one example of a friendship circle (a "great group of ladies," says one member) within the larger community. Seniors and families from Burnaby and New Westminster can experience best-in-class senior living here. People who move here get a fresh perspective on life thanks to the many possibilities in activities and amenities. Seniors thrive together here.
My 100 year old mom from Calgary wanted to see her sister-in-law Alice S. as they haven’t seen each other for many years. The staff made us so welcome and the accommodations are so beautiful, I had a hard time leaving! Thank you all for making our stay so wonderful! It meant the world to us! Oh! And the food! Just incredible!
My mom is a very young 93, and she loves the youth connection at Thornebridge. She’s gained new friendships among the youth ambassador program there… You can have as much social life there as you want. For people who like having a big group of friends like my mom, she’s been able to take advantage of the knitting and the bridge clubs, movie nights. One of her favourite things this year is that she has started a gardening club. She’s made some really great friendships there. We’ve been so grateful that she’s so well looked after… [It’s] a place that gives [seniors] what they need.
My mother has lived at Thornebridge Gardens for 4 years. She wanted to live there, so put her house up for sale, and Thornebridge found her the perfect suite. Being almost 92, she is needing more help these days, and the staff are very helpful. Although she does pay extra for the help, help is there. The staff are very patient as well, and handle [her] well.
My mother moved to the Thornebridge in July 2015 because she thought she would need extra care as she approached 97. Her suite is well appointed and more spacious than in the retirement residence she was leaving. She is more active here than ever as the activities are varied and well attended. Mother likes to be around people and is finding the residents to be very friendly. The staff are very accommodating, always willing to do that extra that makes living here so enjoyable. The residence and grounds are well maintained and any issues have been quickly dealt with. The Thornbridge is the 4th residence my mother has lived in and she finds that last is sometimes the best.
What can I tell you about Thornebridge? Well, as you arrive you see a very attractive building in a park like setting. Friendly Benches at the front entrance for visiting or waiting for pick up. A patio where summer barbecues are held is also a nice spot to sit & enjoy the flowers. An easy paved walk around the building, a short walk to uptown New Westminster for shopping. A nicely appointed interior holds a library, an all purpose room for various activities & entertainment so one can be quite busy--or spend quiet time in your suite. Our staff are amazing, they know everyone by name, are friendly, gracious, caring & capable. Servers in the dining room soon get to know your likes or dislikes, our excellent chef creates a wide variety of yummy meals attractively presented & regularly holds a meeting where residents can voice their opinions & suggestions. A pleasant, safe environment for our retirement years.
The staff makes the difference! I am so thankful the way they care for my mother. They go way beyond my expectations. They really care for their residents. The food is amazing and the facility is keep immaculate.
Outstanding staff, food, services, social gatherings and location. My father moved in 2014 and I have been volunteering there since. They are consistent in their delivery of care to their residents. I highly recommend this retirement living facility.
The staff are all so incredibly nice and professional. We moved our Dad in 2 weeks ago and from the moment we walked in they knew who he was and the move (especially during the pandemic) was quick and efficient. After a few days our Dad said that whenever he came down for his meals they all would say hi and knew his name - we are so thankful to all the Staff at Mulberry they truly do care and do look after their residents. 3 cheers to them!
My Mother resides here and this is probably one of the best places around.
My 92 year old and quite deaf mum moved to Mulberry Parc a few months ago. The staff is very kind and attentive. There are a lot of activities for the residents and everyone is very friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend Mulberry Parc for your loved ones.
