Approximately over the last four months I have watched Frank DeMichele Community Relations Coordinator handle his job function. I understand Frank was recently brought in to fill this position ay Harmony Court independent Care Centre in Burnaby. Centre sold shortly after Frank came on board. What I find for the new purchaser Optima Living Frank enjoys coming to work and helping people, you see it in every way. I have seen Frank getting asked a question he legitimately does not know the answer instead of giving some phony reply, Frank will get back to them with the proper answer. To me, I find this situation, attitude, what I hope becomes contagious.

It was recommended by my relatives as I am disabled and I booked a tour with the manager Joel. He was very helpful and showed me the different amenities, and I selected a 1 bedroom 500.sq.ft. They have lots of fun social activities. The staff is very friendly and thoughtful. I met the who resided their and they had interesting stories to tell you. The location is great close to restaurants, Westminster Mall, and transportation easily accessible. I just have one minor issue they have to be more creative with the menu, but I noticed it has improved a bit. I'm aware that food prices are rising and like everything else.

100% Would recommend! Our grandpa recently moved into Harmony Court (the independent living side). Our family visited for a week and stayed via renting a guest suite. It was a clean, spacious, humble living space - all meals included. Essentially we lived like a resident for a week! We wanted to know if it was a place we were comfortable caring for our loved one. The staff and residents were brimming with kindness and care for each other. Our interactions with reception, custodian and kitchen staff were all extremely positive and welcoming. It was obvious that they really care for the residents, paying attention to little details of their needs (food preferences, mobility limitations, etc.). They keep track of who attends meal times so that they can make sure they touch base with a resident who may not be feeling well. Their activity board is always full for socialization opportunities. The food! The food menu was consistently good and mindfully crafted to suit the needs and lifestyle of our older loved ones. It was such a pleasant experience and treasured time to spend time with our grandpa in this way and connect with residents and staff. We might just sign up for our own retirement in a few decades!
