I was at Wellington Park for a 3 month rehab after breaking my ankle. I am 61 and we had ages 53 to 94 while I was there. I miss it. I miss the staff, the exercise class twice a day, the daily towel and laundry delivery, the meals that are tasty, plentiful and you actually get to choose what you want, the coffee cart 3 times a day, the friends I still have now that I'm out. My ankle healed in 2 months thanks to Seema and Shazia and their physio. You get out what you put in so I left early and wouldn't think twice of choosing it for long term care. The staff are AMAZING for the most part and I can't say enough about it. I cried when I said goodbye to staff. Great job everyone!

My father has only just arrived but the admission process was pleasant with Lauren making sure everything was as seamless as it could be and instilling a sense of confidence that all will be well. I can say that everyone we have met so far is very welcoming as well. After the first night, I received a call from Lauren (Admissions Coordinator) with detailed information about how the first night had gone and she emailed pictures. 5 stars for a very optimist beginning!

My mom went to this Rehab Burlington 3 months I’m so very disappointed in this place i Definitely won’t recommend this place for any person have to go for rehab. They hardly did anything with my mom walking. I am so displeased . I got her home and she did more walking at home in one night than three months there if you love your loved ones do not send them to this place.
