CHARTWELL ERINVIEW

Erinview's newest building, which opened in 2019, raises the bar of care and community created in this established retirement residence. It's a completely contemporary living environment surrounded by beautiful older homes on tree-lined streets in Sheridan Homelands. Ideal for families in Mississauga, Milton, Oakville, and elsewhere in the west GTA, the Erinview offers a uniquely homey feeling. That comes straight from the top, from a company focused on caring for elders. And one of the ways that's best exemplified is in the relative affordability of this community, compared to other seniors' residences in the area.

I want to thank Katherine Mayers and her team for a wonderful tour. What a great building, offering all levels of care, and the food is amazing.

Our family had a tremendous customer-service experience with Aysha and the rest of the team at The Shores. Aysha has been extremely patient & kind as our Mother struggled to decide where to move. In the end, Mom decided she wants to stay in Etobicoke, and we hope she will land somewhere equally warm & welcoming.

My mother and I went for a tour recently at Port Credit Shores, and we absolutely loved it! The facility itself is very well kept with modern yet elegant touches throughout. As we walked through the recreational areas, I almost felt as though I was at an all-inclusive high-end resort! Residents seemed refreshed, happy, and at ease. Those we had an opportunity to speak with had only great things to say. The several activities offered allow residents to live an active lifestyle and nurture relationships. Katherine, who is the Community Relations Manager we had the pleasure of dealing with, was very informative and helpful. Residents seemed to gravitate toward her warm energy and positive presence. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and would highly consider this home for my parents!

Moving into the apartments was quick and easy. The staff was very helpful and courteous. I'm all settled and comfortable here.

Wow, what an incredible place to have your loved one live! I was looking for my mom and was so impressed with Shores! It was absolutely beautiful, but more importantly, every person I came into contact with were amazing. In particular, Bradley was a tremendous help to me in providing answers to all my questions and really going above and beyond to help me with my decision. You can tell he is a genuine person who really cares about helping you find the best fit for your loved one. Ultimately, I decided on a place closer to mine and my sister’s homes that may fit her needs better in the future, but it was such a difficult decision! Thank you, Bradley, and every other gem I came into contact with at Shores of Port Credit!

CHARTWELL ERINVIEW

Erinview is a gem. My parents moved there once they both had some health issues and loved it! Even my Dad who was not on board and did not want to leave his house, was so happy there. In fact, he would tell me every time he saw me how grateful he was that I convinced him to move. My Dad had Parkinson's and cancer and needed more and more help, the staff was not only caring but also so kind and helpful. I knew he was in good hands when I was not there. My mom has Dementia, and this was so good for her as she had someone to do the cooking and cleaning, and she could not worry about that anymore. Tamara is a superstar, she was reassuring the first time I met her, and until the last time. When my Dad passed in the home, I felt the compassion and support of everyone, especially Justine and Allison. And as an only child, it was really amazing to have them be there for my Dad and me.

My mother has been at The Erinview for.over 3 years now and has found a second home. Thank you for all do for ma!!!

I recently stayed at Erinview for 5 1/2 weeks following cardiac surgery and was very satisfied with the experience. The support and kind attention given by the staff, as well as the great meals and comfort of a modern suite, were instrumental in my recovery from the surgery. I would recommend Erinview as an excellent choice for anyone who requires respite care.

Tamara and her team provide a home and customer service to the residents of Erinview that is second to none. An exceptionally high quality of life and supports are provided to the residents of this home. Tamara knows the value of keeping the "family" in "family business." These characteristics carry over into her dedication to the residents and her management style. Everyone is an equal at Erinview and this makes an enormous difference in the quality of life the residents enjoy. From the moment you walk in the front door, you are immediately at ease and feel at home. Small homes and teams really do it better.

I stayed for 2 weeks after my knee surgery The place is very clean and well organized. The dining room staff was very attentive and helpful. All staff are very helpful and caring.
