Insider reviews & perspectives
Comfort Life Review
Your first introduction to Wellington West is the main floor welcome lounge, centered around “the tree.” There’s a theatre chapel, used for both movie nights and spiritual gatherings, as well as in-house lectures and learning presentations. You’ll see lots going on around the community, that might include fitness classes in the alcove, good times in the games room, or live entertainment in the second floor bistro.
Suites are very bright and new, with a variety of styles running from an alcove to one bedroom (plus den, in some suites), and two bedroom Independent Living suites. The assisted living floor means that older couples can remain together under the same roof, where a spouse who needs care can get that. That also makes it wise for Ottawa-area seniors who foresee the need for more care arising in the future.
When you move into a setting like Wellington West, you’ll find yourself rejuvenated by the environment and the people here, including the caring staff, of course, but also the many fellow senior residents here. Some people here are just a lot of fun to be around, and you can’t put a price on good company or good friends. It’s a lively inspiring place to be.

Executive Director's Message
Linda Meek
"Hello, I am Linda Meek, and I am proud to be opening The Wellington West Retirement Community in Summer 2021 with the help of my gracious team. I’ve served as vice president of regional affairs for the Ontario Retirement Home Association board of directors. I’ve advocated senior concerns to the board from all over Ontario. I’ve worked with, and volunteered time for senior centric causes throughout the last 15 years. And my husband always jokes with me that I’m late on most Friday nights. Why? Because I lose track of time mingling and laughing with our residents during Happy Hour! I cannot imagine another
career. Caring for our residents, and providing worry-free living is at the core of everything we do at Signature Retirement.”
