Our Perspective
This community is brought to you by Verve, and they really do bring Verve to living here. There are hotspots throughout this community where you see friends gathered, enjoying each others' company. When new people move in, they are made to feel welcome and comfortable, and soon the new surroundings become a new home, one that – in many ways – might be the best home you can imagine.
When you walk into Wintergreene Estates you'll see residents enjoying life in a variety of ways. There are people playing cards in the multipurpose room — some of them enjoying a beverage while they do so — others are getting a massage in the spa, while a small group is happily working out in the fitness centre. The large multipurpose room has a variety of settings spread throughout, where people can create their own intimate groups for conversation or games. Further inside, the spacious dining room opens onto bright sunlight, and in the kitchen, the chef is preparing something undoubtedly delicious. That's the bustle of activity that makes communal living in a fantastic retirement home such a welcome change from the inherent loneliness of holding onto your own home.
Just check out the activities available! There's gardening and outdoor walking programs to make outdoors fun in the summer sun. Inside, there are bingo nights, movie nights, Wii bowling and of course, the much-beloved shuffleboard.
This home is well-established but it also feels completely updated. You can tell that the seniors here feel very at home, comfortable in their surroundings but at the same time very happy with the services and care that are unique to a personal care community. For Regina residents who want the very best in senior living, Wintergreene Estates offers that in spades.

“My family and I feel deeply blessed to have been able to relocate my father to Verve Senior Living. Throughout the process the management team went far above and beyond at every turn to help us. This was especially appreciated given Covid 19. They were patient, kind and empathetic, offering guidance and help the likes of which we had never experienced elsewhere. ”
SAFE & SECURE
Our COVID-19 Safety Protocols
At all times we must follow the guidelines set forth by the local provincial health authority. In many cases we implement safety initiatives before the governments mandates them. While we pride ourselves on doing everything we can to keep our residences safe, it does alter the way we connect with the outside community. Despite COVID’s interruption to our regularly scheduled lives, Verve continues to be a vibrant, fun, engaging, and safe place to live thanks to our incredibly creative and caring team members who go the extra mile in all that they do.
