Our Stories

In honour of Personal Support Worker (PSW) day, we’d like to take a moment to thank all of the heroic PSWs working at Sienna, in Canada, and around the globe. The work you do deserves to be celebrated.

Nurses have always been a critical part of our society, but the last few weeks have proven just how invaluable their contributions are. From the residents, families, and team members of Sienna, we’d like to thank the nurses of the world for everything they do each and every day. Please enjoy the below videos, images, and quotes from families. We’re honoured to pay tribute to your efforts this nursing week.

Here, you’ll be welcomed by the warm feeling of home and a sense of real comradery. We’re located on the Trent Canal, with the picturesque Ferris Provincial Park as a backyard. Island Park and its team offer a warm, welcoming environment where residents can be themselves and truly feel at home. Whether sharing a laugh at our bistro bar and fireside lounge or learning something new and challenging in the craft room, this is a place where you can look forward to enjoying every day.

Every day should hold something new and exciting. It’s something Red Oak Retirement Residence in Kanata, ON believes very strongly, which is why they’re now hosting a new day program in partnership with Recreational Respite.

We’re proud of the food we serve. Our Farm-to-Table program ensures residents only ever eat meals crafted from ingredients of the highest quality. And good food needs good company — from dance parties to afternoon tea, a good friend is never far from sight at Pacifica Retirement Residence in Surrey, BC.
