Our Perspective

stories

Holland Gardens offers a full continuum of care, a unique service in Bradford. This allows independent seniors to move in on their own and acquire care as they need it, and creates an opportunity for couples with different care requirements to remain together in the same building. Making the move out of a traditional family home into a senior living community is challenging but we find that Holland Gardens makes it inviting! Friendships have formed quickly in this very new community.

Holland Gardens is the retirement destination for people from throughout central Ontario who want to live in a close-knit community of friends. Staff like to highlight the luxurious resort-like lifestyle here – and well they should! – but we think there’s a special downhome feel to Holland Gardens. While the warmth of community begins at the top, with supportive staff and administration, it easily extends throughout the building, where you witness many comfortable friendships among senior residents.

You’re going to love the food here, served by an exceptionally created culinary staff who love to make dining a great experience; meals are much more than just a plate of food, they’re food creations! (Check out the orange roughy with lemon butter.)

Interiors, here, are bright and spacious throughout. We love the look of the welcoming, warm lobby highlighted by a fireplace. When you look at suites you will see that there are four very ideal choices. While many people here will enjoy the independent living suites and the relaxed communal living, there is also assistance available for some basic personal healthcare needs.

Reviews of Holland Gardens

"[All the staff are] excellent here… To me, they hire me the best. I'm really at ease to call at any time to ask any questions, because they really do care…That makes my experience and my dad's experiences awesome. They listen, they communicate. They take their time with you. They take time with the residents. I see it all around. The care has made his life much better. He's in his late 90s. He knows they're always there, and that's a great thing. And they're there morning, noon, and the ..."

"I can't say enough great things about Holland Gardens. Our Mom was one of the original residents when they opened last year. The building itself is amazing as are the staff.

The management team has been available at any time when we have needed extra support and assistance. This has been a great move for our Mom and she is in a..."
