A couple of months ago my mom came to visit us for a month. We chose to host her at Viva since the facility was much more convenient and prepared for her (no stairs and no bathtub to climb). She not only enjoyed her stay and welcomed us with coffee in every opportunity we picked her up, but also made good friends who invited her to seat with them for lunch or dinner, even though she spoke little English. She enjoyed very much the food, the musical events and the quiet of her spacious room. We all enjoyed the swimming pool with her and felt welcome all the time.

V!VA is a first-class retirement community, supported by a first-class team. In particular, Wendy T, who serves as the Community Relations Manager, is exceptional and has helped make the transition for my parents into the community both a seamless and positive one. Thank you, V!VA, for taking such good care of my mom and dad!

Wendy Teperman, Community Relations Manager at Viva Thornhill Woods Retirement Resident is a beacon of warmth and support. Her unwavering dedication and genuine compassion supported my mother’s first step into the Viva Life! Our tour was so welcoming and a genuine opportunity to see what life would be like living at Viva Thornhill Woods. Wendy embodies the epitome of exceptional service and genuine care. Mom has now comfortably settled into the Viva Life, where she enjoys daily warm greetings, forming new friendships, embraces fresh opportunities, and receives daily support from Wendy, coupled with the remarkable care and friendliness of the staff.

Our mom is very well looked after. Staff is level-headed and professional and very patient. It's comforting to know that there's someone there if she needs them at the press of a button.

My parents have had a wonderful experience here. The staff are so nice and very responsive. They really care. And the facilities are great.

My stay at RHRR for respite care related to my knee surgery, was the best decision I ever made and the most amazing care I have received. The staff were attentive, the food choices very good, the room and amenities were fantastic. Samara, Angelica and Gidget and all the other folks at RHRR are the best.

Ever since our uncle was admitted to the Richmond Hill Retirement Residence, each staff member who came in contact with him had a positive impact on his emotional, physical, and most importantly his mental health. It felt like he received a second lease on life! The care, attention, and compassion the entire staff demonstrated are absolutely a reflection of the outstanding people they are! He came with a loss of appetite that he not only regained, but he also continuously commented on how great the food was, especially the various soups he had the pleasure to try. We highly recommend the Richmond Hill Retirement Residence for living independent seniors, or for a short term living assisted facility.

My mom and dad lived here for almost 2 years. The rooms are more spacious than any other retirement home in the area, which was a big draw for them moving out of their family home. The ability to get help as needed was important and the PSWs and nursing staff were always wonderful to them. Pre-covid, they also really enjoyed meal time in the pub and felt well taken care of by the wait staff who knew all their favourite drinks and meals. We were always greeted with a smile by the front desk staff. Everyone worked hard to make it feel like home for them. [posted to Google May 2021]

We are so grateful to have found Richmond Hill Retirement Residence. My Mom has been living at RHRR for two and a half years and we couldn't be happier. Every staff member is kind and caring and makes my Mom feel like she is living with family. They know every resident's name and in our case our extended family too! I have received numerous texts from the life enrichment team, sharing photos and special activities of which my Mom has participated. They really do make the residents their number one priority! During this very difficult time with Covid-19, the staff have done their very best to keep the residents happy and safe. They have kept us well-informed and up to date with all happenings regarding new protocols and public health information. Thank you to all the staff at RHRR for giving my Mom a very special place to live that allows our family to rest easy knowing that she is well cared for and safe. There truly is no better place for our Mom!! [posted to Google Reviews Jan 2021]

My mother has been at this residence for about 4 years and I want to recognize the exceptional work by all the staff members at the residence especially during the covid 19 pandemic, to keep everyone safe. [These have] been very trying times for everyone but especially for Retirement Residences where we have some of the most [vulnerable]. Management and staff have in my opinion worked tirelessly to ensure the safety of residence and staff. We are grateful for everyone's efforts and highly recommend this facility. Keep up the great work. [posted to Google Sept 2020]
