My wife had a medical crisis that required we sell the house and move to a retirement home. She chose Don Mills, which was a marvellous choice. No words can tell how organized, clean, and cheerful it is. She had a really pleasant recovery! And that led to her being really well. I thank everyone there for such a wonderful facility, thanks to Stue, Ewa, Robert, Nethu, and all the staff who were unbelievably pleasant and cooperative.

I joined my friend on a tour and was not planning to think about it for myself, but changed my mind totally! It's a beautiful, new, clean spacious facility. Robert was very informative. Now, I just joined and am looking forward to gain my life again, living there. No cooking, no cleaning, no responsibility, just being pampered at the residence.

Thank you to the wonderful team at the Don Mills Residence! Iesha, Ewa and Taneshia gave my parents an outstanding welcome when they recently attended their Wellness Assessment. The professionalism, enthusiasm and sincerity of the team made my mom & dad feel supported and valued. My parents were hesitant about moving to a retirement residence, but meeting the team was a real turning point for them; now they are excited to experience all the wonderful services and amenities that their new lifestyle will offer them. My family looks forward to working with the Verve staff as my parents move closer to moving in! Thank you!

Ewa and the team at Don Mills are fabulous. They were always available to help, regardless of the time of day, and arranged everything quickly to prepare for a respite stay.

Take a look at Don Mills Retirement Residence! You won't be disappointed!!! We visited here as the first in a search for possible homes to consider when it is time for us to make a move. Ewa Ilijeska (Community Relations Manager) was our hostess. Honestly, after visiting this residence, we could easily say, "why look anywhere else?" - although Ewa encouraged us to. These were our first impressions ... - a well-run facility - the building: new, 10 foot ceilings, large windows - the atmosphere: bright, open - the staff: lots of courteous staff - who all acknowledged us as we passed - the delicious lunch: healthy, attractive, lots of choice, very open dining room, attentive servers - services and activities: a very complete list offered - communication (prior to/post visit): excellent. Thanks to Ewa for a delightful experience!

My brother has been a resident of Greenview for six weeks, and my experience has been that the staff and management made the transition easy and welcoming. The moderate size of the residence gives Greenview a personal feel, and the care staff has been pleasant and helpful. The building itself is freshly renovated, clean, and very attractive. My brother has thanked us for finding Greenview for him, and we feel fortunate that they had a space available almost immediately.

I called to make inquiries for my mom [and] spoke to Bob, the General Manager. His kindness overwhelmed me. He made me feel so understood through a very difficult time. ... Amazing professional service! .

Greenview Seniors Residence offers a warm and welcoming community supported by a knowledgeable and compassionate team. Through my work helping seniors transition into retirement living, I’ve had the opportunity to assist residents moving into Greenview and have seen firsthand how caring and professional the staff are. They go above and beyond to support residents and their families. It’s clear they genuinely care about the people who live there. I highly recommend Greenview to anyone exploring retirement living options.

I would highly recommend Greenview Seniors Residence. My mother has been living at Greenview for 4 years. She has dementia, and the staff provides excellent care for her.

We are very fortunate to have been able to find a caring place for my mother, who suffers from dementia. The staff on her floor, from day 1, have made my mother feel at home, have taken the time to get to know her, know what she’s all about, they have been wonderful and continue to take care of her needs. The reception staff have also taken the time to get to know her and acknowledge her every time she heads to the dining room. I know that she is treated well and looked after! Thank you to all the staff and team who make Greenview a caring home for my mom!
