What families should know about Parkland Retirement Living

Parkland is the retirement living brand of Shannex, a long-standing Atlantic Canadian care company, with communities in Nova Scotia and a growing presence in Ontario, including Ajax, Ancaster, and Etobicoke. If you searched for a specific Parkland retirement home, you'll find it in the table above.

Parkland focuses on retirement and assisted living, often with the option to add care as needs change. On cost, families ask us this a lot: Parkland retirement living is private-pay, and the monthly fee depends on the community, suite, and care level rather than the brand. Shannex also runs higher-support care under its own Shannex name, so if you need daily care rather than retirement living, check there too.

The Parkland name signals a consistent standard, but each community still differs in suites, pricing, and availability. We'd compare a couple on their reviews and Confidence Score before you tour.
