Excellent, caring staff. My 95 year old Mom just moved in from another Retirement Residence but loves the care and attention she gets from all the staff. Food is excellent as well - Lovely place

I’m super appreciative of the excellent care and attention all the staff provide to myself and my mother. She enjoy the meals cooked by their wonderful chef (including the serving staff), activities (inside and outside the residence) and entertainment that are provided. I have also enjoyed sharing meals with her and appreciate the helpful and informative communications with the staff.

My 95-year-old mother moved into assisted living at Aspira Bearbrook about a year ago. She had lived in two seniors' homes in Toronto before this so we had something to compare to. Aspira is vastly superior to anything we’ve experienced before. We’ve learned that the most important aspect of a seniors' home, particularly for those in assisted-living, is the attention they get from staff. Aspira really performs well on this count. The staff got to know my mother very quickly and pay attention to her needs, whether special items in her diet or changes in her mood and general health. Even maintenance requests are handled quickly, often within the hour by the in-house handyman. The activity staff will round up residents to remind them of activities rather than letting them sit in their rooms. The lobby is always full of residents and there’s a large "sunshine club" out on the patio whenever the weather is nice. It’s not like many places I've visited where people sit in their rooms and the common area is empty. The facilities are very good and the building has a nice homey ambiance. The dining room is spacious, with white table cloths and lots of light. There are two settings for lunch and dinner and it has not been difficult to change Mom's preferred sitting time when we needed to. My mother was frail when she moved to Aspira and I was initially nervous to leave her there when I went on short vacations. But I feel confident now that I'm leaving her in good hands, even on longer absences. All in all, my mother and our whole family have been very pleased with our experience at Aspira.
