Our Perspective

How we see Credit River - Verve Senior Living

Both family members and the seniors who live here list the most striking quality of this community as "the genuine friendliness of the staff" … their eagerness to please. And when it comes right down to it, that's the most important aspect of any retirement community. A clean, healthy environment with great food and fun activities is always important (Credit River has all those things!) but ultimately there's nothing better than being surrounded by people willing to go out of their way to make every day the best it can be.

Featuring some uniquely wonderful spaces inside and out, this Streetsville retirement community brings Verve Senior Living's passion for excellence to this area of Mississauga. We especially love the bright lighting in the second floor fireside room, and the large outdoor courtyard, landscaped with a rock-faced gardening, backing onto the quiet side-street. Credit River Retirement Residence is situated in a calm residential area of the city, surrounded by some well-established homes with large properties. Streetsville Memorial Park is one of the nearby greenspaces here.

This is a still-very-new building (founded in 2016) whose décor and personnel create a calm, restful atmosphere where there is an abundance of space (always a mark of contemporary design, of course).

Reviews of Credit River - Verve Senior Living

What residents and their loved ones say about Credit River - Verve Senior Living in reviews.

Christine Macvicar, family member

"The transition for my Mom was a big worry. I wanted this to be home right from day one. The staff made it just that, answering all my 1000 emails/texts so quickly, and welcoming and having her space perfectly ready for her to move in with no problems. It hasn’t even been a full week and they call her by her name. The food is exceptional and they always give her extra dessert."

Joe Battaglia, family member

"The staff are very welcoming and patient. They never seem rushed and make you feel like you are what’s most important. The atmosphere is pleasant, comforting and welcoming, and the upkeep is impeccable. My father stayed for a short while in respite care and had a great experience. "

Cheri Natale, family member

"Credit River’s team have been wonderful helping us to transition dad from his home to their Retirement home . We had many questions and concerns going in however they were handled with patience and honesty and, in the end, we felt this was the best place for our father to live a better quality of life. Their team of nurses and PSWs are kind and attentive. We know dad will be well taken care of. "
