By various residents of VRS SeniorsÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™ Communities, sister properties of (Kelowna).

Everyone has their own reason for choosing to move into a seniorsÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™ community. Often, the reasons we hear from our VRS residents are: having more opportunity for socialising with others in a community; having home cooked meals prepared, served and cleaned; not having to do the daily household chores anymore; having financial affordability and realising the increased value in their home and others assets; and more safety and security.

At , we asked our most recent residents what they had to say about their new home. Here is what they had to share:

Ï㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥œAfter years of living alone, I had the good fortune of finding Ross Place. Here I have a comfy suite, great meals, and space to continue working as a freelance essay writer.Ï㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥

Ï㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥œVisiting local facilities to explore options confirms we made the right choice for us with a move to Lakeside Gardens. We thoroughly enjoy the delicious meals, easier daily living, various recreational activities, friendly employees, new friends and above all, security.Ï㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥

Ï㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥œAlthough I only moved into Charles Manor a few months ago, I was first struck by the friendliness of everyone. Friendliness not only from the staff, but also from the residents who made me feel so welcome. My welfare and happiness is the staffÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s first priority and nothing is too much trouble for them. The food is always good.

There are many activities each day and lots of visiting entertainment for everyone. I certainly get value for my money. If youÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™re looking for a home away from home, Charles Manor is the place for you!Ï㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥
