Rekai is more than a long-term care home. They treat one another like family. My grandmother was blessed to be a resident in their care for just under a year. It is clean, they have extensive programming, and are so inclusive. It is a phenomenonal place! We cannot thank the staff of 2E and 3W enough. The PSWs, RPNs, recreational staff, deitician, physiotherapist, NP, etc., are all such amazing individuals. We are so grateful for their exemplary care and will miss seeing all of the familiar faces now that my grandmother has left this world. May God bless all the staff, residents and families. ❤️ Thank you from the bottoms of our hearts, the Tabrizi & Jamber Torabi families.

Have left no fewer than 4 voicemails with their coordinator for tours, and not a single call back. I have not experienced this level of disrespect, lack of customer care, or disregard for those in need of long term care from any other organization in this journey. I really hope this is reflective of the individual, and not the facility, as this would otherwise be one of our top choices for my father given location.

All of the staff at Rekai Wellesley are truly exceptional. They are kind, considerate, and compassionate, and they treat every resident as if they were a member of their own family. The variety of daily programs and life-enrichment activities they offer speaks to their genuine commitment to residents’ well-being. Although my mother-in-law was there for just under a year, the care she received during that time was outstanding. When her health became palliative, she was supported with such warmth, dignity, and love. The compassion and concern shown not only to her, but also to our family, were beyond comparison, and we will always be deeply grateful for that.
