AMICA LITTLE LAKE REVIEWS
Six months ago, we moved our father to Amica Little Lake from another senior community in Barrie. We had been experiencing many difficulties at this other facility, and Amica Little Lake offered a cleaner, friendlier and healthier environment for our father. We are so glad that we made this move! The building itself is more attractive and inviting. The staff are over-the-top friendly and accommodating. The activity calendar is filled with fun events and outings, and there is something everyday for our father to enjoy. The food is varied and excellent. And the health care is exemplary, with nursing staff available 24/7 and a house doctor who is a senior care expert. All staff are very approachable and any questions or concerns we have had have been dealt with efficiently and quickly. Our dad is very happy here, and we are too. We wish we'd moved him into Amica Little Lake four years ago, when he first came to Barrie!
I absolutely love working here. Every one cares so deeply for eachother. From the residents, families, friends, and staff members. I will always have much respect and appreciation for Amica Little Lake.
I have worked at Amica, for two years and half. Everyone love and appreciate each other. The team I work with are absolutely lovely. The staffs and residents are fantastic.

CHARTWELL WHISPERING PINES RETIREMENT RESIDENCE REVIEWS
My mom moved to Whispering Pines for a short period of time. Everyone from the front end team and administrators to the nurses, kitchen team and cleaning crew are great. Everyone makes a point to say hi to the residents by name when they see then. Wish my mom could have lived there longer as I know she was happier at the retirement home than in an apartment alone. From our first interduction to the home during an open house to her last day there my mom and her family were treated like part of the Whispering Pines family. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a retirement residence and to become part of the family.
Wonderful place and staff. My mom was a resident at WP from Jan 2021 until Apr 2023. Though much of this time was during the many lockdowns and restrictions of Covid-19, the staff did their best to ensure the residents were safe and well looked after. Although my mom was only there for 2 years, she made many friends and enjoyed the facilities and activities provided by WP. Our family is very grateful to WP.
Stayed at Whispering Pines for two weeks after my hip replacement. The staff and food were phenomenal, everybody friendly and inviting!! The room was very spacious, clean and conducive to my needs. In addition, the long halls in the facility allowed me to walk every day until I went home. Definitely would recommend!

CHARTWELL ALLANDALE STATION RETIREMENT RESIDENCE REVIEWS
We recently moved my Dad to Chartwell Allandale Station and I have to say that overall it has been a positive experience. The staff are very helpful and the facility has everything that anyone could want. Having the Wellness Centre on site is a relief. If Dad has a medical problem he can go to the Wellness Centre, the issue is identified and the Dr. is contacted if necessary. The units are lovely and bright and the food is very good. I have no hesitation in recommending the facility to others.
The Allandale Station staff were very welcoming and fantastic to deal with when touring their location. We are thinking about having a family member move into a Chartwell Location and they definitely impressed us with their service and great living environment created. Looking forward to finalizing the move!!
Allandale Station is a beautiful retirement community, clean, spacious with a warm friendly atmosphere. Staff are very helpful and have a lot of programs to help keep the residents active. As a vendor our visits are always welcomed by both residents and staff. It is a pleasure to serve this community.
