Insider reviews & perspectives
Comfort Life Review
Step inside the main doors and you’re greeted by a soaring atrium, to us, a symbol of the aspirations behind this community. Space and modernity are hallmarks of this location. The kitchen alone feels like that of a major hotel. Hallways are roomy, providing optimal accessibility. Throughout the building, windows are sweepingly wide. Upper floors offer vistas of the nearby mountains that include views of Okanagan Lake. The Atrium Cafe will be a lovely meeting place, and residents can also enjoy local wines and craft beer in the Bluff Pub. Suites are replete with the latest accessibility and technology features. A byproduct of these features is that it’ll be very inviting for friends and family to visit.
All of those are nice to have, but what will really make this a great community is Verve’s facility for making every day wonderful. That will be found in a varied activity schedule, excellent staff, and the development of a vibrant community. One thing we’re impressed by is The Vineyards hiring of the cream of the crop in culinary and care staff.
For Kelowna-area residents facing a need for some additional help with daily care, or families dealing with the progressive effects of dementia, The Vineyards promises care and community that’s markedly contemporary in its orientation. Memory care here is especially noteworthy, benefiting as it does from Verve’s broad experience in this area, stemming from insights learned at the Village Langley, Canada’s only dementia village.

Dementia & Memory Care (definition)
Cost from $6,985
The staff at The Vineyards Residence will all be trained in the Eden Alternative philosophy approach. We believe in the social model, which offers personalized care in a home-like environment. The residence is designed so that it is broken up into distinct cottages, or neighbourhoods, each with only 16 or 17 suites. Activity and common areas are located at the centre of every neighbourhood, so that dining and activities are only ever a few doors away. This also creates a “small home environment” that allows for relationships with a smaller number of neighbours and caregivers, to support structure and familiarity. Using best practice dementia care and programming to assist residents as they age in place, creating an environment in which all residents can flourish, in spite of mental or physical restrictions. A focus on what a resident can do as opposed to what they cannot, that will not only serve to simply maintain health, but improve overall livelihood and wellbeing, helping to navigate the journey of physical or cognitive disabilities in the happiest, healthiest, most dignified manner possible.
