Residing in a fullâ€"service retirement residence, seniors enjoy the comfort of their own private and spacious suite while enjoying the many serâ€" vices, amenities and companâ€" ionship that they offer. Surprising to most seniors who make the move to a more careâ€" free environment, this new lifestyle automatically brings a fresh perspective. One company leading the way in this field is International Care. In 1987 they completed their first retirement residence in Coquitlam and over the next seven years began operating additional projects in Victoria and White Rock, British Columbia. â€" Recently _ the Company acquired a residence in Winnipeg and are currently completing the construction of their flagship residence in downtown Oakville. There comes a time in all of our lives when our family leaves home and the house that once seemed too small suddenâ€" ly becomes too big. When sizâ€" ing down many seniors choose a townhouse or condominium as an alternative. But then there comes a time when seniors desire more from their home than just low maintenance livâ€" ing. This is especially true if an individual is living alone and looking for more social interacâ€" tion than is provided in a conâ€" dominium environment. Yet many people are not familiar with the excellent alternative of a fullâ€"service retirement resiâ€" dence.

Taxpayers have reached ‘tax wall‘ Our feeling is comfortable â€" from an immediate warm handâ€" shake... to the many hellos from friendly residents. Each resident has their own personal reasons for moving to The Kensington. For some, the tedious tasks of shopping for groceries and cleaning, or transportation from one destiâ€" nation to another has become too difficult. As one resident comments, "a retirement resiâ€" dence is the last place I thought I‘d be because I thought I was too young. But moving here was one of the best decisions I‘ve ever made in my life and I should have done it sooner." But what is it about these serâ€" vices and amenities that make new residence named The Kensington, will be Internaâ€" tional Care‘s finest to date. Many of the suites feature balâ€" conies with wonderful views of Lake Ontario, â€" downtown Oakville and the beautifully landscaped courtyard. There are a wide choice of one and two bedroom suites, as well as studio apartments. Also providâ€" ed is full dining service; use of all the inâ€"house common faciliâ€" ties which include a well stocked library, fireside lounge, hobby and exercise room and much more.

The monotonous chores are taken care of and residents are free to enjoy the life that they have worked and strived for. "I‘ve never seen a place where people are so friendly." says Mrs. Clement. As Diane Sepa, who has helped many seniors happily settle in both Bestview and now The Kensington since 1990 says, " it is great to see our residents enjoying each day, inviting friends to visit and then introducing us as part of one big family. It takes special residents and staff to make a "house a home" and I feel we have captured that." While almost all new retireâ€" ment residences can boast of "fine dining", "spacious suites" and "beautiful gardens", it is the attitude of the staff and the residents â€" the feeling you get when you enter a building owned by International Care Corporation that sets this comâ€" pany apart from the others. Every staff member works together to provide quality serâ€" vice and contribute to the secuâ€" rity and warmth of the resiâ€" dence. "Our number one priorâ€" ity is to provide for the wellâ€" being and enjoyment of our residents," says Joe Redmond, President of International Care. "If the seniors‘ needs are not met, we‘re not doing our job as individuals or as a company‘‘.
