My brotherRocky and I met Joanne Nichol in October, 2025 for a tour of Livita and to get information on their Respite care programme as Rocky was waiting to have a full hip replacement done. We were very impressed with Joanne and the imfo we received and decided that Rocky would go there for his Rrspite Care. Rocky had his hip replacement done on April 2th 2026. Joanne and all of the staff were amazing and friendly and delightful. They show that they really care about people. They were concerned and made sure he was enjoying his meals and getting enough to eat. They were awesome. !!! We are now considering Livita for a Retirement Home for Rocky in the future. Sincerely Jennifer Irvin

I recently booked a respite stay at Livita Centennial Residence, following hip replacement surgery. I could not be happier with my choice. The staff is welcoming and supportive and make you feel part of the residence family. My accommodation was very comfortable, nicely decorated, bright and airy. There was a list of activities to join, designed to stimulate mind, body or just fun. The food was delicious with lots of options and variety. The management team is a dedicated, caring and creative group who put in significant time and effort to provide a great experience for their residents. When the need arises again for respite care, I will book with Livita and continue to recommend it to others as well.
