My brother lived here for the past 16 months, before going to long-term care. All of the staff members we interacted with, were friendly, caring, and responsive, sometimes going beyond the call of duty. We found Laurelwood to be very good value for the money. We want to say a special “Thank-you” to Charlene, Randy, Mary, Rachel and Jane and all those on the Concierge Desk.

I had the pleasure of putting on a Fall Risk Assessment clinic at the Court of Laurelwood on Friday as part of a lunch and learn. The event was well attended, and the participants were involved and tried out the Balance Tracker unit. Rachel was very helpful in advertising the event and getting the room set up. I had a turkey burger and pasta salad for lunch. It was very good.

Staff at this retirement home is absolutely amazing...EXCEPT for Charlene Rivard. Front he very first meeting with her she was a super negative person. When she said she was here on a 2 year contract from Saskatchewan I asked her if she was gonna stay, if she like it here. She stated she hated it here and was not going to stay past her 2 year contract. My husband met her today for the very first time and he wanted to tell her off . He said she was such a rude person. I laughed and told him she has been like that from day 1. Mom ran into financial trouble here with her brain injury and Charlene was quick to let her know she wanted her evicted. Seniors on a pension are at real risk....no care. It's all about the $. Food here is 1800 a month and studio rent was 1400......
