Staff friendly but crowded and rushed. Regardless if care quality, It’s rather depressing. View isn’t great from windows because of neighbour hood.

I had a very odd experience with my father. I recently gave him a cell phone to FaceTime me during the pandemic. I also taught him how to text and other things such as brows the internet and watch youtube. A month or so ago he started sending me pictures of this lady’s behind. Obviously I was shocked since he has been happily married for 45 years. During our nightly FaceTime chats I asked him what was with the pictures of what seemed to be your nurse or health care aid bending over. He simply replied with "oops sorry" I brushed it off but more and more of the same girl's rear end kept being sent to me. I don’t want to seem like a prude but shouldn’t the workers be wearing scrubs and not tights or yoga pants? This was the last picture he sent me, I sincerely have no idea what this means. He is like a new person, but not in a good way.

My mother is a resident at Victoria Gardens and we could not be happier with the care, kindness and respect that she receives. My dad visits her every day and they treat him like part of the family. Thank you for giving me Peace of Mind.🙂
