A COMFORT LIFE REPORT:
The Village of Wentworth Heights vs. Amica Stoney Creek

THE VILLAGE OF WENTWORTH HEIGHTS

Wentworth Heights is the perfect fit for Hamilton area seniors who miss the old days when you knew your neighbours, and everyone you met had a friendly "Hello." The village concept is truly unique and has to be experienced to be appreciated. Staff and residents love life in the village, and family members are thrilled when their senior family members find a home in such a vibrant place where they’re well cared for.

AMICA STONEY CREEK

If you’re moving to a senior living community, why not make it best in class? That’s what you’ll find at Amica Stoney Creek. This community offers a list of wonderful amenities combined with supportive staff, in a building that’s still very new and comfortably luxurious.

Thank you so much for taking such excellent care of my mother-in-law, Connie Lefebour.

My mother is in LTC, but we have the freedom to take her into the Retirement area and the LTC area. Every area of Wentworth Heights is beautiful, clean, and welcoming, so pleasant to walk around and sit in the comfortable seating areas. Today, we sat outside in the gorgeous main courtyard! The gardens are so well tended, the waterfall is so pretty and the fish are swimming around. The staff in LTC and in Retirement are consistently kind and welcoming to my mother and to my family. We consider ourselves blessed to have our mom cared for at the Village of Wentworth Heights... I stopped at the main office in LTC this morning to take care of my mom's account and was helped by a friendly and efficient staff member, then I visited my mother in LTC and took her out for a walk into the Retirement area of the Village. We stopped at the Riverstone Spa and Salon because my mom needed a haircut. The staff were very kind and accommodating and took mom right away for her haircut and curl. It was such a pleasant experience, and Mom looked beautiful when she finished. Thank you! The rest of the morning, we walked around and were greeted by many staff members and residents, such an uplifting experience. Our family is so pleased that Mom is helped by the caring staff at the Village of Wentworth Heights. Much appreciated!

Everyone is always very friendly, the staff and residents. It's a treat to have The Ruby in-house. It's great to see infection control is in effect.

The restaurant was excellent. Great food and service.

Amazing place with amazing staff!

I recently moved my mother from Toronto to Stoney Creek, and on move-in day, I was completely overwhelmed. From start to finish, the staff showed patience, kindness, understanding, and genuine care. The food is above average, and the staff is absolutely wonderful. What began as a very stressful experience has turned into one filled with gratitude and true peace of mind. She is truly thankful to be there, and I am so incredibly grateful to all the amazing staff. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Beautiful atmosphere & staff who go above & beyond! Such a wonderful experience here with my Dad, who was here for a 32-day respite stay.

Wonderful atmosphere and staff and residents were great to talk with. Had live music and a Greek-themed day. AWESOME

I had a lovely visit with Carly last week. When I first called, she was there to listen to our family issues, and allow me to share information about my Nanny. She took her time in asking what mattered to me and my family when looking at places. This was unlike many other places I had chatted with. I could tell she truly cared about us. When I came to tour the facility I was welcomed by a lovely younger lady who offered me fresh cucumber water! Wowzers! When meeting with Carly, I could feel the sense of relief come over me as she listened to my concerns. I was a bag of nerves and tears, and she made me feel so safe and comfortable. We then took a tour of their Assisted Living and Memory Care floor, where I was introduced to many staff and residents along the way. She even introduced me to another lady who was similar to my Nanny. The place was beautiful, and clean, and everyone looked so happy. Carly even gave me a hug and told me she is here for my family anytime I need her. We will be moving my Nan in as soon as a suite opens up. Thank you Carly, to you and your team who created a wonderful place for many people to call home! You truly were a godsend during this time and took away more stress and worry than you’ll ever know.

My mom just moved in... Amica is a beautiful retirement home with tons of activities, the food is above average, the service is excellent, the staff really cares and it’s got everything a senior needs and more!

THE VILLAGE OF WENTWORTH HEIGHTS

The Village concept that sets us apart was always meant to create a living space for seniors that feels like a small town. In many ways this is similar to the experience our founder, Ron Schlegel, had growing up in Ailsa Craig outside of London, Ont. Our Main Street connects to the Town Square as the social spine of the Village. Together these spaces allow for indoor and accessible options for residents to live life as they always have. Ron also envisioned the Village as community hubs for seniors and others from the surrounding community. His vision was to connect the Village to the broader community to enhance the lives of residents as well as support those living outside the Village.

THE VILLAGE OF WENTWORTH HEIGHTS

Residents are supported when their needs change in multiple ways that foster their autonomy. When their needs change we can help provide the care necessary for them to stay in their current room or the person will have the option to transfer to another neighbourhood where those supports are included in the rent. Outside support can also come in to help with supports.

AMICA STONEY CREEK

Resident's who reside with us will always get first priority to move suites, and care neighbourhoods.

THE VILLAGE OF WENTWORTH HEIGHTS

Someone seeking a very private lifestyle with minimal interaction may find another setting more appropriate. At The Village, daily life is built around connection, shared spaces, and relationships among residents, team members, and families. It’s the right place for seniors who value being part of a community where people know one another and where care and companionship are part of everyday life.

New residents often say “I wish I had done this sooner!” They’re surprised by how quickly they become absorbed in the community and how fast new friendships develop. In no time at all, everybody knows their name and like in any small town, a walk down Main Street is an opportunity to connect with friends and new acquaintances. People are also surprised by opportunities offered to grow and learn in their new community. They find new passions like hosting a podcast, riding a mechanical bull, becoming an artist or fulfilling a lifelong dream of skydiving. As they say, the possibilities are endless.
