The staff have demonstrated an extraordinary level of compassion and understanding for my brother and his partner since arriving at Palisade Gardens. That their care and wellbeing is a priority is always evident. The Director of Nursing and the PSW’s go out of their way to ensure that all medical requirements are responsibly administered on a daily basis. Mealtime in the elegantly appointed dining room becomes a social event not to be missed. Occupying a favourite table early to dialogue with friends is always top of mind. Weekly entertainment is a highlight, with my brother happily participating in the sing-a-longs, especially for Sinatra renditions of New York-New York! Micki MacLean, the General Manager, is to be commended for fostering a positive, safe and cheerful environment for the residents and her staff. I would highly recommend a serious assessment of Palisade Gardens for anyone contemplating the transition to a retirement home.

My elderly father has been living at Palisade Gardens for almost 10 years. It is a nice cozy environmemt walking in the front door. There are lots of activities planned and shuttle bus services ( for those who don't drive like my dad) to go shopping, appts, or just go for a ride around town to see the sights. Due to health issues the last few years he is in need of nursing care for meds, etc. The psw/nursing staff have given him great care and I am thankful for them!
