Evergreen Retirement Community

Our Perspective

stories

Vitality seems to exude from every aspect of this community. All the interiors here are bright and clean. You see and hear interactions between staff and residents that are positive and cheerful, and rooted in patience and kindness. It's obvious that staff love working with the people here, working to create such a positive environment.

When you come in for a tour of Evergreen Retirement Community, you're struck by the lively atmosphere that staff and residents here have created. Verve Senior Living stands by the belief that the best days in life are now (not behind you!) That comes through in many aspects of life at this community, seen the minute you walk in the door.

Inside the entrance, we love the vibrancy of the skylit lobby. But that vibrancy is matched by the people here. You see satisfaction in the faces of many. And why not? When you look around, you find everything you need, everything you can ever imagine needing. There's a salt-water pool, hair salon, a café, computer lounge … the list really goes on (there's even a bowling alley and a general store). This is a great example of a community that provides opportunities for people to live every day in a unique way.

Reviews of Evergreen Retirement Community

Heidi R, family member
"We cannot begin to express how much we love the staff at Evergreen Retirement Community. They have always been supportive, caring , kind and helpful. However, never had this been more important than during this time [the pandemic - ed]. As an only child, having my mom taken care of by this facility has been a God-send. They have always been available to answer all our questions, and concerns promptly with care, love and patience. It is so clear how much everyone cares for the residents and how m..."

"[When I visited] my grandparents at Evergreen, at the Mississauga location [the staff here] was patient, cheerful with a positive work attitude [and] made us feel welcome ... Our grandparents speak highly of you and now I know why. Keep up the good work! "
