One-to-one comparison

FORESTVIEW RETIREMENT RESIDENCE

One unique aspect of Forestview is a monthly residents' meeting, where your opinion gets heard on issues like upcoming events, as well as any other suggestions you have. That extra personal attention is seen also in the care options available. There are regular services like laundry and medication management, of course, but Forestview goes beyond that. For example, you can create your own personalized care plan that meets your specific needs, adding a la carte services as you require.

FOUR ELMS RETIREMENT RESIDENCE

Four Elms is exceptional for taking Verve Senior Living's model of quality senior living, and combining that with a continuous care model. This model welcomes independent seniors but also includes memory and dementia care. You can move in here and know that you will never need to go through the stress of moving again, and couples with varying needs (including those where one partner has dementia) can remain together in one place.

Our mother moved onto the assisted care floor 3 months ago and we are very pleased. She moved from a good independent living retirement home. Anna, the Wellness Director, has been open and responsive to dialogue and has done things to improve our mother’s physical and mental well-being. The doctor, who is on-site once per week, has been a good listener and has helped as well. The staff response times and the integration with LIHN workers have been great. The staff all seem to know her name and have encouraged her to participate in many activities. Forestview has lovely grounds and is tucked in a quiet corner that you don’t even know you are in busy Toronto. We are happy with this move and the friendly and caring environment at Forestview

My grandparents are residents of this retirement home and they are pleased with their experience. Linda the general manager has also been incredibly accommodating. I would highly recommend this home.

I'm impressed with the Forestview Retirement Residence's handling of the current pandemic situation. The staff are so welcoming and friendly. The food service and quality is on the level of a five star hotel.

The staff at Forestview are very attentive friendly, professional and caring has been our experience.This newer facility is well managed and maintained with great food choices and the quality is superb. I know my mom is in good hands and I can highly recommend Forestview.

My father recently moved in to Forestview and we are very pleased so far. His apartment is beautiful, the food is great, and the staff are lovely. My mom is still in rehab recovering from surgery, but is eagerly awaiting her move-in. Carolina from Forestview often sends her care packages, which are much appreciated!

FOUR ELMS RETIREMENT RESIDENCE

Our parents lived at Four Elms for over a decade. Over the years they, our father in particular, participated in several activities that he found interesting, especially art. There was no shortage of choices for those that were interested. The staff were always kind, thoughtful and respectful. As the end of Dad's life came closer the nursing staff were wonderful and attentive. I'd like to compliment all the staff from the administrative folks who made our dealings with them easy and hassle-free, to the maintenance team who were always ready to repair anything, the nursing team who were caring and skilled, the housekeeping staff who made sure his home was in good condition, and finally the servers who interacted with my parent's several times a day....always greeting them with a smile and accommodating their culinary wishes as best they could. While no place is as perfect as your own home, Four Elms was a safe and caring environment that met the needs of our ageing parents.

My experience with Four Elms has been AMAZING!! Everyone is always so friendly & accommodating.. The building always looks in immaculate condition -- so well maintained -- & it's a pleasure being in such a clean, cheery & beautiful environment.... Whenever I have needed information or advice, the staff are always there to help out with a smile... The PSW's & nursing staff do everything to keep my mother comfortable & happy -- Daniella, the head nurse, goes above & beyond & is just a doll. Whenever I speak to my mother on the phone, she's always raving about how kind the staff are & how well she's being treated. I highly recommend Four Elms to anyone who is looking for a senior residence, either for themselves or for a loved one.

Our father was part of the Four Elms Retirement Center community for four years. The amazing staff and management teams exceptional care and kindness provided to him was very comforting and much appreciated.

My mom and dad had a beautiful apartment here until dad passed away after being here for 6 months...then mom was moved to the 2nd floor where her care was upgraded and for the next 6 years was very happy with her new surroundings. She had fantastic caregivers, the meals were fresh and well made and our family was very pleased with Four Elms.

My Mom started at Four Elms back in Nov 2018. Any concerns I had, were dealt with right away. All the staff, administration & managers (especially the Health & Wellness Manager) were very courteous and were there to answer any concerns/issues that I had. All the rooms & common areas were always clean & well kept. The nursing station was always quick to help when I needed them in an emergency. During the pandemic & lockdown there were very vigilant to keep all the residences safe with all the protective equipment, screening, swabbing etc. Four Elms also has great staff nurses that helped Mom with the extra assistance that she needed. The PSW from Paramed that work at Four Elms were very dedicated to Mom and they did a great job looking after my Mom's needs.
