One-to-one comparison

ST. ELIZABETH VILLAGE

There are many great things to say about St. Elizabeth Village, but one unique aspect of this community is residents' ability to leverage the market value of the home they purchase, through the community's life lease program. Given that real estate values rise steadily in Hamilton (especially on the mountain) this gives you the best of both worlds: the security and freedom of 55 plus living, along with the equity you'll build up from your investment in your home here.

THE VILLAGE OF WENTWORTH HEIGHTS

Wentworth Heights is the perfect fit for Hamilton area seniors who miss the old days when you knew your neighbours and everyone you met had a friendly "Hello." The village concept is truly unique and has to be experienced to be appreciated. Staff and residents love life in the village.

My mother is staying here and she loves it!

I have lived here the last 2 1/2 years. Beautiful place to live and friendly residents. Their are many activities to enjoy once our COVID lockdowns are lifted. A wonderful place to live.

Love the staff members here. They go beyond their jobs to help their residents, can't ever thank you enough for helping Jeannie.

We couldn't believe our luck! This is country living in the city, with all the conveniences, security and peace of mind.

What I like most about living [here] is the security and freedom to live your own life.

The overperform in their goals and objectives [for care and atmosphere]. They go above and beyond all of the time. Every couple of days my mother will relate an experience of kindness that didn't need to be done by a member of staff but it was... I talk to her every day and she's extraordinarily happy. What impresses me most is the people there.

We secured a spot for my brother in the LTC neighbourhood in May 2022. He is very happy and verbalized it just a few days ago. The leadership for the Rymal neighbourhood have been amazing not only helping to transition my brother into his new home but answering my questions as well. Thank you to everyone at WH for creating a welcoming home for my brother!

I have lived here for going on 3 years and I love it. All the staff are great. Meals are good. Rooms are spacious.

My mother in law is very happy here. The staff is very helpful and caring

Our mom lived here for a few years in assisted living. Wonderful caring staff. Always friendly. Very clean . Her room faced Rymal road, so [it was] very sunny and bright.

THE VILLAGE OF WENTWORTH HEIGHTS

Our Village is a proud part of a Canadian family tradition of community building that goes back 70 years. The first Schlegel family home became the foundation of what Schlegel Villages is today. Here at The Village of Wentworth Heights, we offer several lifestyle options to meet a variety of needs. Our continuum of care allows for residents to age with us in place as their needs change. The residents we serve come from a range of backgrounds that thread together the fabric of our community, and while we know resident-centeredness is a term that many lean on these days, we truly do focus on each individual’s wishes to guide our approach to service. Our Signature Programs help us focus on the individuality of each resident we serve. Our LIVING in My Today dementia care philosophy, for example, was developed by our team and our partners alongside people with lived experience. This provides our team the opportunity to learn exactly what it means to support a person who is experiencing the changing perceptions of dementia. We also celebrate the Wisdom of the Elder as another Signature Program, thanks to the inspiration of our founder Ron Schlegel. Ron once said: “The greatest untapped resource in Canada, if not the world, is the collective wisdom of our elders,” and we honour the individual and collective wisdom of those we serve in ways large and small.
