LIVITA QUEENS AVENUE RETIREMENT RESIDENCE

This community is unanimously praised by residents and family members. It’s especially noted for the staff’s professionalism, personal warmth, attentiveness, and compassion. They go beyond duties to give personal time and express a personal interest in those in their care, and as one family member puts it, they anticipate needs. They create a warm community that makes seniors’ lives easier and better.

CHARTWELL OAKVILLE RETIREMENT RESIDENCE

Chartwell Oakville Retirement Residence is an ultra-modern retirement residence, facing onto expansive parkland in upscale Oakville, near bountiful local shopping that includes restaurants, shops, grocery stores, banks, and other retailers. It’s a wonderful instance of five-star senior living from a company that knows how to make a strong impression from first to last. Step into the door and you're greeted with a soaring, expansive main floor lounge. Features like that impress, but Chartwell Oakville also offers families and seniors much deeper value than that.

Yesterday, my mother celebrated 20 years at Queens Avenue Retirement Residence. When she first arrived, there were few residents that had mobility issues. Since then it has been amazing to see the staff and management adapt to an aging population. Most recently the staff had to adapt to caring for their residents during a pandemic. They have done so beautifully. My family is thankful to have found this jewel of a place and are so grateful for the level of care afforded to our mom.

If you're looking for loving, compassionate, and holistic care for your loved one Queen's Avenue (QARR) is the ONE. Both of our parents were very fortunate to be family members of QARR. They were always greeted with an infectious smile and excellent care from the staff.

I would highly recommend the Queens Avenue Retirement Residence. As soon as you enter Queens Avenue you will find yourself in a very welcoming lobby. The recent renovations on the main floor, which include a sitting area with a fireplace, as well as a bistro, are very inviting. The apartments are spacious and well laid out. The best part of Queens Avenue is the staff! All of the staff, including housekeeping, kitchen, administration, and especially the PSW and nursing care staff have become like family. The attention to personal safety and well-being is highly apparent. During this uncertain time, I had full confidence in the goings on of Queens Avenue Retirement.

Our mom is the ‘difficult to please’ type. Queens Ave has done a fantastic job – especially during this time of quarantines with increased activities and client services. She is happy, which means a lot less stress for us. Special mention to Darlene and Tom for their responsiveness to us and to Gretal and the nursing team for going above and beyond including not only taking her to dentist and Dr appointments but dealing proactively with medical issues. Not to mention the time the team tended to her and managed her pain meds after she cracked her ribs. Maybe most importantly, the staff has conscientiously adhered to stringent safety policies resulting in what we understand is industry leading resident well-being.

It's fair to say that an excellent retirement home is not just were the staff are great and the food is good - it's a place where needs are more anticipated than just noticed; where nourishment is for the body, yes, but mind and spirit too. It's where our elders experience the care and loving they have given us - every month and week, day and moment of each year. It is where my uncle and aunt found a wonderful next home - where they became part of a larger family. Many years ago THEY chose the Queens Avenue Retirement Residence and we are oh so pleased they did.

My father has been living at Chartwell for 2 years. He looks forward to his daily exercise class and movie night, regular events that were organized by Izabela, the Lifestyles and Programs Manager. She makes a point of inviting him to events that she feels he would enjoy. It is evident that she tries to include everyone and designs activities to suit different needs.

I recently had my hip replaced and decided a respite at Chartwell would be a great stay for a couple weeks. Words can not describe my experience. I met Kerri and Cynthia General managers. When Kerri showed me the room I would be in I couldn't believe it. The rooms was huge separate bedroom living room everything was spotless. Suki Daniel and Joanne the nurse were all so helpful and kind. The food was fantastic especially the home made soups staying at Chartwell was like staying at a five star hotel and when I found out the price including 3 meals a day I was shocked at how reasonable it was. I would highly recommend Chartwell to anyone either permanent or as a Respite everyone was so professional kind regards Kim

My mother visited 4 seniors’ residences before deciding on Chartwell Oakville and she has been delighted with her choice ever since. She moved in almost 2 years ago and has nothing but praise for the staff and volunteers of this residence. I visit at least weekly and my interactions with staff have always been positive and pleasant. I notice the staff always greet residents with a big smile and kind words. The social director does a marvellous job of finding ways to keep the residents engaged and entertained. Even during the toughest Covid times, there were activities to get involved in, although on one’s own, i.e. a bingo game sheet available with numbers posted once a day. When entertainment wasn’t allowed to come in, various videos were shown in the theatre, to small groups at a time, to keep folk entertained. Hallway visits happened with beverages and treats when groups couldn’t get together. I have dined with my mother numerous times and the experiences have always been delightful. The staff are polite, the service is great and the food that I have tasted has been delicious, especially the soup! The residence itself is beautiful, well maintained and very comfortable. I can’t imagine my mother living anywhere else.

The staff has ensured our safety during Covid, and also kept us all informed of changes in the Ontario government protocols. They provide upbeat attitudes and attempt to keep us all in a healthy state of mind during this Covid isolation. I must of course mention the fabulous food our chef Ken creates daily, and always provides a great variety with alternates if something is not our preference. We are so glad we moved here among other folks, rather than living alone in our previous apartment.

Chartwell Oakville has kept the residents safe and the home has been 100% free from Covid. My Mom requires extra care and and I am pleased with the gentle and comforting way they take care of her. When we can not see her due to lock down, they have arranged zoom calls. They are showing Catholic Mass in the theatre on Sunday's, for those who wish to attend. And who miss going out to Church. It has been lovey for my Mom. In this scary time, Chartwell has done what many others have not, kept a Covid free, safe home for their residents.
