Our Perspective
How we see Palermo Village - Verve Senior Living
The phrase "reasonable cost" might be heard rarely when it comes to living anywhere in the city of Oakville—but the value you receive in senior care at Palermo Village means the phrase applies! Then again, truly compassionate treatment and a . The Village is widely praised for the way staff treats residents. "Friendly" and "helpful" are terms used as a matter of course by family members, when describing the staff here. There's nothing better than hearing that your senior loved one loves where they live.
Modern interiors and in-house features are great to have in a retirement home, of course. But what you're really looking for is the feeling of welcome, caring people around you and a hundred other little things that make your new place into a real home. That's what seniors in community at Palermo Village cite as the big difference between this and some other places in the area. A welcoming, comforting, loving atmosphere is not something you can view in a brochure or on a website—it simply needs to be experienced.
The comforting atmosphere is added to by the setting, the building itself. There's a theme of brightness and vivacity in the layout. That translates into an easy transition for many of the people who choose Palermo—and into confidence by family members, knowing that their loved one has found a great new home they'll soon love.
