WILDPINE RETIREMENT RESIDENCE

The friendly, welcoming atmosphere of Wildpine Retirement Residence reflects traditional values. This very modern community gives its senior residents healthy, happy personal interaction, with amenities and activities designed for people with a variety of abilities. The fitness room is a highlight of the amenities. People who move in here may be surprised how much they love the community of peers with the same life experiences and interests.

THE REDWOODS RETIREMENT RESIDENCE

A superbly well-appointed Ottawa retirement home located close to the 417 in West Ottawa. This is a lovely high-rise seniors' tower (17 floors) with great views from its balconies, and a variety of suite styles to select from. The Redwoods still feels very new and clean throughout. There are staff members who have been here since it opened. People love the flexibility of living independently in your own apartment, as in any tower, combined with the option of sharing in dining or hiring care as needed.

So impressed with the friendly and helpful staff at Wildpine. Coming from the Maritimes, Mom has settled in nicely. She’s enjoying all the activities, delicious food and new friends. Thank you to all the staff who work so hard to provide such a great place for Mom to call home.

The staff at Wildpines are very good at knowing the needs of each of their tenants! They really personalize the approach with the family and the tenants. So many people to thank Gordon, Nicole, Jennifer Shari, all the front desk staff, all the PSW staff, and if I am missing someone thank you. It helps during a stressful time.

The entire residential staff cares immensely for the resident's happiness and health. I would recommend this residence to anyone looking for an opinion, as they go above and beyond! Keep up the great work!

My mother has been an independent living resident for the past couple of years; however, due to her changing healthcare needs, we needed to move her to the dependent living floor. While I envisioned that this would have been a negative experience from my mother's perspective, it has been nothing but positive. During my visit with my mom today she expressed how much she loves the service at her new location. It’s the right amount of care for her needs. I was thrilled to hear that I and I wanted to share that with you all.

My parents transitioned from their home to a double suite at Wildpine in August of 2021. The assisted living floor was their 1st stop and then after my dad passed my mom moved to an independent living floor and was quite content. Wildpine is the best residential facility in Stittsville. The administration, medical, culinary, recreation and awesome custodial staff are compassionate helpful supportive, and wonderfully inclusive. Your elders’ needs are met with service excellence at Wildpine. The entire staff provides wrap-around care for your loved ones - which is also care for me too.

THE REDWOODS RETIREMENT RESIDENCE

My Mother went into the Redwoods for a three-week trial stay and never went back to her condo. She absolutely loved it and this was someone who was dead set against “an old folks home." She loved the activities offered and still hasn’t managed to try them all after a month. The food is delicious there are always options to choose from. Her suite is newly renovated and very spacious and homey. She has a lovely balcony which she enjoys daily. The staff are excellent, so professional and caring. They went above and beyond to ensure my mother was happy and made many accommodations to suit her needs. April Johnstone is a treasure. She welcomed my mother and went out of her way to make her feel at home. Any requests or concerns we had were answered promptly and dealt with efficiently by April, even on her own time. I feel very fortunate that we were able to get an apartment (and it is a full one-bedroom with a full kitchen) at The Redwoods.

My wife had a complete knee replacement surgery and for convalescence, we spent 2 weeks at the very good Redwoods. The care which she received was excellent as were the meals which were provided. The staff is very well trained and are friendly and thoughtful and certainly surpassed our expectations. We were extremely impressed with the entire Redwoods organization. My wife will be having her other knee done within the next few months and we will be doing this again. Our stay at the Redwoods was a very comfortable and carefree 2 weeks.

I have been so impressed with just about everything. To a person the staff have been pleasant patient, kind and helpful during this convalescent period. The environment has been blissfully quiet, the bed comfortable, the food good, and quantities generous. I chose the Redwoods on the recommendation of friends. A very good decision.

My family recently moved my elderly parents from their home to an apartment and now finally to The Redwoods. We/they wanted to get used to apartment living and the downsizing that goes with it. We went to several retirement buildings and were most comfortable choosing The Redwoods. More importantly... my parents were most comfortable with this decision. The staff is very approachable and helpful. With a wide range of services that you can sign up for if needed. These services can be revisited at any time as the situation changes.

Redwoods offers residents a full range of services, with a helpful caring staff, and a secure building. There's a wide range of activities to choose from. The building is located close to residential neighborhoods with bus stops and various retailers within walking distance. And is pet friendly.
