What is a retirement residence?
Retirement residences serve somewhat independent or entirely independent retirees and are very similar to condominiums with additional amenities and services. Residences may offer independent living, assisted living, respite stays, and memory care. Our residences keep loved ones safe while meeting their individual care needs. Services and amenities in retirement may vary by residence. Residences include meals, fitness and recreation programming, light housekeeping, and usually laundry services in their monthly fee. Most residences have a small library to borrow books and a restaurant or café to enjoy complimentary refreshments and snacks. Some may have pools, landscaped gardens, walking trails, or ice cream parlours.
