HAZELTON PLACE RETIREMENT RESIDENCE - VERVE SENIOR LIVING

One of the most notable features of this residence is the spaciousness of the lounges and three dining rooms. Hazelton Place focuses on offering a variety of activities and attractions to bring residents together and facilitate a lifestyle that is as active (or as quiet) as you might want. The area is rife with history including U of T buildings, and it has been recently reinvigorated, with many new shops and outdoor cafes, etc.

We moved here from Sault Ste. Marie and we're glad we did. Everything is designed and built and planned for seniors, so that they have just a splendid time here. They have a wellness centre, and with my nursing background, that impressed me. It includes a doctor and a nurse practitioner, with nurses on staff. If you ever have an emergency, you can get help. There's also a closeness to many facilities required by older people. Without even using a bus, we've got banking, a tremendous library just down the street and other things that are just great to have. It's become our home.

We are so glad that our mother had the good fortune to live at New Horizons Tower for 8 years. The care she received was kind, compassionate and attentive throughout the time that she lived there, which included the pandemic. Everyone was exemplary and fulfilled their responsibilities with care and thoughtfulness. It was a true home for our mother and a blessing for which we are all grateful. I highly recommend this retirement residence without hesitation.

My father has been living there for almost 4 years ... and we could not be happier with the caring and supportive staff and administrators, the great programs and activities they offer and the wonderful homemade food they serve!

It is all very beautiful and I am proud to call this home.

Throughout his time [here], we knew that [dad] was well cared-for ... My siblings and I are deeply grateful for your kindnesses [and] generosity of spirit.

Leslie has been extremely helpful assisting by brother and I find a home for our 96 year old father. Very quickly we determined that Hazelton was the perfect place. Unfortunately, while other retirement homes have a vacancy rate up to 20%, the assisted living unit at the Hazelton has a wait list of around a year. They must be doing something right!

In considering a place for my mother to retire to I found my visit to the Hazleton to be extremely informative and welcoming. They did everything they could to illustrate the features of the residence including allowing me to see a lived-in suite and inviting me to lunch. I was very impressed. The management staff were very thorough and bent over backward to accommodate my mother’s needs. I would highly recommend it.

I’m deeply grateful to know that my mum is in such good hands! The staff are extremely competent and caring, going above and beyond almost each and every time. Their flexibility and competence has been especially apparent as they have navigated through Covid, always prioritizing safety while also truly focused on the caring community they work so hard to create.

Mom has been a resident here for over two years now. She is happy, safe and in more than capable hands as she ages gracefully and struggles with dementia. But the real joy is knowing that people who work here - especially during a pandemic - remain vigilant in their focus for everyone's safety and well-being. That comfort - knowing mom is receiving daily touch points with the staff - helped us endure the last year where visitations have been curbed by Covid-19. The quality of care is best-in-class and her suite is more than spacious. Above all, she has made new friends and embraces every day with a sense of optimism that is nothing short of inspirational. And to inspire and be inspirational really captures the essence of our experience so far at this gem of a retirement home....I tip my hat to their dedicated staff and

We moved my Mother into the residence in November 2018 and quite frankly it was the best move for her and our family. She is so happy to be in a facility that provides her with such a high quality of life. The suites, the staff, the food and the amenities are all top shelf. The new friendships she has made are irreplaceable to her quality of life. During Covid our family knows that she has been kept safe and we couldn't be more grateful to the amazing team at the Hazelton.
