I was seeking respite care for a loved one for two weeks. I visited many homes in the GTA and was very disappointed with their offerings. One of the rooms offered was a storage room! But when I met Daniela at Amica Pickering, my opinion of retirement homes changed for the positive. What a happy welcoming environment. The staff and residents were happy and the atmosphere was energizing. It is difficult to place a loved one for a two week respite or longer. Daniela was so patient and accommodating and cognizant of personal needs. It turned out that we were able to secure in-home care. However, I highly recommend this facility. Thank you Daniela!

What truly stood out was the incredible camaraderie among the staff. The team works seamlessly together, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Everyone I encountered was friendly, professional, and genuinely caring. It was evident that they have a strong sense of community and are dedicated to providing the best possible care. The residents are treated with the utmost respect and dignity. I observed staff interacting with them in a patient, kind, and attentive manner, fostering a sense of belonging and well-being. It was heartwarming to see the genuine connections formed. Furthermore, I was impressed by how efficiently and effectively problems were addressed. Any concerns or issues that arose were handled promptly and with a solution-oriented approach.
