There’s everything you need plus many more luxuries that you come to appreciate after you move in. On top of all that, the staff here is very caring and diligent, going above and beyond.

What really stands out about this community is the sheer richness of amenities. These include a movie theatre, a hair stylist, fitness classes, and many clubs and workshops. There’s gardening in the greenhouse or swimming in the pool. There’s the “The Rose & Crown” pub and an open-concept dining area with sectional soundproofing. There are movie nights, social events, guest speakers, and outings. You can expect Amica to make every day the best, with always something interesting to do, to keep you inspired. On top of all that there’s nearby golfing, hiking along the Capilano River, and shopping.

It’s clean, well-lit, safe, with everything accessibly-designed. You have all the freedom you want to have fun, and leave all the everyday chores to other people—who enjoy helping you. Meals are chef-prepared. Suites are comfortably homey. It’s all best-in-class, with Amica.

Insider Perspectives

Reviews of Amica West Vancouver

What residents and their loved ones say about Amica West Vancouver in reviews.

Lawrence Lava, senior

"I spent 21 days respite at Amica West Vancouver, following a total ankle replacement. Chris, Celeste, Concierge and all the staff were extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and professional the entire length of my stay. The food was excellent and the health and welfare checks were reliable and comforting. Recovery from surgery was expedited because of the care provided by Amica."

Carole Cohen, family member

"My mother spent the month of August in Respite at Amica Clyde Ave, after her fall. Our experience was a very good one with Chris Huggins and the staff members. They were helpful, friendly, and courteous at all times. The facilities and the food was excellent. My mother came home feeling much better, thanks to the staff."

Richard Keevil, family member

"We moved my mother to Amica from another care home last year. From day 1 the staff and management at Amica have been courteous, informative, and helpful. Grace and the rest of the care staff on the second floor are always cheerful and dedicated, with a real sense of teamwork and commitment. The facilities and food service are also excellent, but the most important function of daily health and personal care is absolutely first class."
