By Andrew Trinder, Director of Operations, VRS Communities Seniors Living, (Kelowna)
In my previous life, now feeling like a lifetime ago, I used to operate high-end hotels, clubs and resorts. I was happy, I thoroughly enjoyed my chosen career which started in London, moved to obscurity for a while in Andorra, then followed the high life in Bermuda for more years than I should have, surrounded by turquoise waters, wealth and fame (others, not me).
I escaped and moved to Victoria in 2007, initially to run the Aerie Resort and Spa, before I was hired by VRS communities to operate Ross Place Seniors Community. Honestly, I did not know if it would be a good fit for me, but decided to try.
From the moment I walked through the door, I loved it. I was surrounded by wonderful people and felt a sense of worth. Right then, I knew I would never be going back to hotels. That was 10 years ago and I asked myself the question: 香蕉视频直播淲hy didn香蕉视频直播檛 I make this move years ago?香蕉视频直播�
Stepping out into something new, whether it香蕉视频直播檚 a new career or a new senior living residence, is full of possibilities.
Having now welcomed and gotten to know thousands of seniors who have chosen to move from their home into a community living setting, whether Independent or Assisted Living, I now recognize they are all faced with similar questions (albeit more important than a career choice).

My best advice is this 香蕉视频直播� we never know what life has to offer if we stay within our comfort zone. Stepping out into something new, whether it香蕉视频直播檚 a new career or residence, can bring an even better future than you imagined. You just have to give it a try.
Ten years later, what I hear from so many of our residents is the same response I had, 香蕉视频直播淲hy didn香蕉视频直播檛 I make this move years ago?香蕉视频直播�
