How we see Carp Commons Retirement Village - Verve Senior Living

This is the kind of place where people will discover how great senior living can be. The expertise behind this project will help create a community where people make friends, form bonds and enjoy life in a group of senior peers. Those who have lived alone will find that they make great friends with others and learn to enjoy life anew. You really will find it nice to have people your same age just outside the door, people who want to be with you. You’ll also discover that your interests expand. Consider the possibility that some of your best days might still be ahead of you. We have seen many people’s lives improve immensely in places like Carp Commons.

Carp Commons allows people to retire in this lovely, heavily-rural area, west of the hustle and bustle of Ottawa proper. It’s also a growing area, of course, and this community is one of many developments happening. This will be an ideal destination for people from throughout Eastern Ontario who want to be close to family in Kanata and the west end of Ottawa. We think it will also appeal to people from throughout Ottawa Region who want a respite from the traffic and noise of the city.

This mid-rise promises to deliver on Verve Senior Living's philosophy of making every day great. Seniors who are still independent but no longer want to live alone will find their enthusiasm for life rekindled here. It’s a perfect solution for people who have had enough of cooking solo meals and want to make their own decisions about where and how they live.

Independent seniors will find a home on the top floors’ private residential units, where you can choose to come downstairs to participate in activities (of which there will be many, we assure you). You'll also be able to relax in the spa, take a meal in the dining room or see what’s happening in the games room. We’ve seen before that this is the kind of residence that encourages seniors to make a whole new group of friends.

Sylvia Bell, family member

"My parents moved into the Carp Commons in October of 2023. It was a major transition for them however, both Rebekah and Pat were so welcoming and went above and beyond to make them feel welcome. Both my mom and dad are very pleased with the care, maintenance, and attention to detail that all staff show towards the upkeep of Carp Commons. The dining room is bright and beautifully decorated for each sitting. The dining staff makes a concerted effort to get to know the residents and their culinar..."

Theresa Maimone, family member

"A retirement home is only as good as its director of care and staff and Colin Ferguson and his staff are amazing. He quickly and efficiently deals with any concerns (which are few). He is very accessible and very present at all times. My mom has settled very well considering there is a language barrier which we were very concerned about. She is well cared for in the dementia wing with only 11 residents living there so it is a very intimate, high ratio of care staff to residents. We are so lucky ..."

"From day one my father-in-law has found a comfortable and welcoming home at Carp Commons. His accommodations are inviting and of high quality. He receives excellent personal and medical support and care. The programs and facilities are top-notch. Visitors are equally welcomed as members of the Carp Commons family. The staff members are all exceptionally friendly, and the general atmosphere is uplifting and peaceful. All of us, including our father the resident, could not be happier with our deci..."
