It is comforting to know that Dad is well looked after in a safe environment by caring and considerate staff, especially with the ongoing challenges with Covid.

Our Mother could no longer live safely on her own, we needed to find a retirement home where she could still have her independence but also be safe, cared for and comfortable. Chartwell Colonial provided just that. The Leadership team and staff made Mom's transition to a retirement home a very pleasant seamless occasion. Everything was so well organized for her arrival, Mom got to meet all members of the Team and felt so special that she was receiving so much attention. The staff and Leadership Team continue to make Mom feel at home, safe and part of the Colonial family.

The staff at the Colonial are wonderful, caring and kind. My grandparents had the pleasure of living at the residence for over 3 years and very much enjoyed their time here. Sara is an excellent activity director and made a large variety of activities available to them. There are so many excellent PSW’s that work here & provided great care to both of them. Dana was friendly and always willing to lend a hand. Karen was so kind and caring. Daytime Tracey was always looking out for them in a warm hearted way. Lesa the office manager is new to the position but has been helpful and responsive to any questions we have. Sam at the front works tirelessly to help with all the visits always with a friendly smile. Kathy the general manager has been of great assistance during difficult times. There are so many others that also contribute to this great living environment we couldn’t have asked for anything more.

My mother moved into Chartwell Colonial just over 2 years ago. She is 90 and has a variety of challenges. First and foremost, I want to recognize the leadership and staff at this facility as absolutely exemplary. They have done an amazing job of looking after my mom. Furthermore, during this Covid-19 era, they have surpassed my expectations around how well they’ve managed to keep the residence safe and virus-free (keep our fingers crossed and maintain that focus as we can’t let our guard down). A most sincere thanks to Chartwell Colonial for job well done!

My mother spent a month at colonial in Whitby. The staff were very kind to her doing their best to deal with her Dementia. She always commented on how kind everyone was to her especially the serving ladies in the dining room. She also enjoyed the food. Thank you Colonial staff

What a terrific time on Saturday as we spent the afternoon at a casino within our home and then a visit from Elvis at night. We just danced the night away.

My Grandmother loved living at The Colonial. She said it felt just like home. Every time we visited, everyone was so nice, and there were so many activities going on all the time. The holiday meals were fantastic. Thank you Colonial!
