Our Perspective
Innovation and newness are a hallmark of life at Port Credit Residences. This was one of the first GTA communities to employ the Brain Gym program, which helps train seniors in improving their memory and handling stress. The program even throws in some physical exercise. The availability of the community's nurse practitioner was also a Toronto first, when the building opened in 2011. Visiting "therapy dogs" are one more aspect of life at Port Credit Residences that make this community stand out.
Walking distance from the shores of Lake Ontario, Port Credit Residences offers a very modern and contemporary take on senior care. One of the biggest draws of this community is the proximity to the lakefront and the spectacular views afforded, even as you sit in your suite, most of these suitably located on the building's corners. Inside, the décor is very modern and contemporary, working shades of brown, taupe, blue and teal.
While location is important, care and community make the Residences extra special. There are warm gathering places throughout the building, from an open-concept piano room to the ultra-modern, woodgrain-interior dining room. One of the many popular places within the community is the indoor pool. There are aquafit classes and several types of therapy available in the pool. It's also equipped with a ramp entrance, one of many accessible features you'll find throughout the Residences. There are a variety of facets to care here, notably, a nurse practitioner onsite five days a week and on call around the clock. The nurse practitioner oversees all health needs of residents, ranging from administering blood tests to working with available doctors.

Reviews of Port Credit Residences
Kevin O'Connor, family member
"So vibrant and active. It's an environment I'd pick for myself. We've had a lot of comfort with my mom being there. The residence was very welcoming for my mom. When you have a coffee in the common area, you get a feeling for what the community is like [and] my mom chose this because she found it friendly and warm.

"Our mother lived for over six years in this most wonderful retirement home. I cannot say enough in praise of Port Credit Residences; a well run establishment.
The staff at PRC are very caring and go above and beyond their job descriptions in making their residences feel at home and their families welcome. The staff became our friends; all of them from the ladies in the front office, to the reception desk, nurse practitioner, nursing staff, dining room, recreational staff and maintenance were al..."
Kelly Mahaney, family member
"Mom has recently moved into Port Credit Residences and is still in her 14 day quarantine period. Fabulous meals are delivered to her door, enough for sharing or tucking in a mini fridge for later. The room is spacious and cleaned weekly for residents. She occupies her time watching children playing in the park or on the skating rink. A nurse visits regularly for temperature checks to ensure resident health safety. Jigsaws are delivered to the door, during quarantine, with a simple call to recept..."
