Our perspective
The availability of a full continuum of care in this community makes it unique. With everything from independent and assisted living through dementia care and long-term care, you never need to move again. Memory care neighbourhoods are a standout, allowing residents with dementia receive the best care possible thanks to Schlegel's partnership with the Research Institute for Aging at the University of Waterloo.
A hallmark of life at The Village of Humber Heights is the village feeling. This residence is ideal for people who miss the old days when life was simpler, and who love to easily socialize with others. Like other Schlegel Villages, Humber Heights is built around the concept of an old-fashioned small town. Residents can walk down the main street to the town square, where there’s a library, an indoor café, a general store, a chapel and more. All of this creates, in fact, a cheerfully vibrant village centre where old friends meet up, chat and visit. The bonus, of course, is the presence of professional care staff.
Staff here focus on offering resident-centred care and on creating a community that feels a lot like an extended family. That’s built into Schlegel’s mission, thanks to being a family-owned company, with a focus on love above everything else. For example, employee and volunteers’ reviews highlight a focus on service with humility. That philosophy and attitude creates a great place for seniors to live and to thrive.
