Home Nursing

So far, so good! My Dad is now 87 years old and it's time that he was somewhere that has a look into his care on a daily basis. My Grandma spent a few years in Venta back in the early 90's and Dad has it in his mind that he wants to spend time where his Mom spent the final years of her life. So, last week we decided to go in and have a look at the Venta Facility. I had arranged an appointment for a tour with a nice sounding lady by the name of Jolene who would show us around at an appointed time. Upon arrival, Jolene met us at the door as Venta is a very secure environment and you must have a card pass to get in. Jolene showed us the entire facility, including 2 room options and a dining room along with several recreation rooms and the garden. Beautiful place and "extremely" clean. I'm quite picky and I couldn't even find a water mark on the floor or the sink in the dining room kitchen, very impressive! So as it stands now, Dad just needs to get to the Dr. and have his admission medical and he will be all set. He hasn't fully committed to the idea of moving out of his home yet but Jolene has made the introduction much easier than I had anticipated. I would have to say that from what has transpired to this point that Venta and especially Jolene have made the decision much easier and are a 5 Star rating at this point. To be continued.... So, fast forward 6 months. Dad has finally decided to go into Venta Manor and try to adjust to much smaller surroundings. He checked in on September 1st and I must admit he was somewhat hesitant and shy upon arrival. On moving day he was waffling back and forth and not so sure that this was a good idea. He had been to his Doctor and when the Dr. realized that his meds were not being taken regularly and his nutrition was out of whack he pretty much told Dad, "you are going into Venta to check it out for a couple months while we get you regulated and then if you want out we can take it from there" to which Dad begrudgingly agreed, "I'll go for 30 days but that's all" . As I said, he has now been there since Sept. 1st and he is doing 100% better! His mind is clearer, his eyes are clearer, he is walking better than he has in the last few years and he has adjusted far better than I had even hoped! The Staff, namely, Jennifer, Wanda and Kimberly have made this transition so wonderful for Dad. They attend to his every need, if he is late for a meal, they call him to be sure he is alright. The food is awesome, the menu is written at the entry to the dining room and the choices are always varied, healthy and GOOD! There is juice, coffee and snacks available at all times. Cable TV and a "straight" pool table in the rec room. He always has something to do and the newfound social interaction he now has has been incredibly good for him. I can't say enough about Jennifer, she has been absolutely incredible with my Dad. She has made this transition so comfortable for him and been so kind to him that he would now be lost without her and has no intention of going anywhere, why would he? The staff clean his room, supply towels, maintain security and help him with whatever he needs. My sisters visit regularly as I am in Calgary and can only get up to Edmonton a couple times a month but now, unlike when he was at home, I am content knowing that he is in good hands with his newfound extended family. Anyone who is considering a move for a parent or loved one should not hesitate to visit Venta as it is by far a 5+ STAR rating in all aspects of care and concern.

Sherry Gibson Walters and the team at Harmony Caregiving are highly trained and very compassionate Home Care professionals. I have been fortunate to be associated with them for about a year and would easily recommend them to take care of your loved ones who need that extra assistance.

Had them clean my house. Very friendly, did everything asked and finished everything in time.

Love working here at Rutherford Heights!! Happiest place to be! Great food and activities!!!

Fletcher Village

A fantastic place with the most amazing people. I'm very lucky to spend my days here!

Would not recommend Bethany based on how a staff member was treated

My Mom moved in to Luxstone 10 days ago. She subsequently experienced medical difficulties which resulted in her needing to move on to a different facility. The staff at Luxstone treated Mom with the utmost of respect and helped our entire family get through a very trying week. Linda especially, brought many smiles to Mom's face and we are very grateful for her.

I took Home care services from Max Home Care Calgary. It was a great experience that how small company can beat big players in the market. The coordinator and staff was so helpful, always ready to listen and made me feel that the staff is member of my own family. Kudos to Team Max Home Care!

Great care provided by a staff of international workers.

Senior Care Center - great caring staff

A beautiful facility with a combination of assisted living and full time care. We used the family room to have a 91st birthday for my grandfather.

If you see the advertising "Sage Hill Gardens" go take a look. It is a place you never seen - you will be treated like a queen. The apartments are #1. The elevators always run! The movie and games rooms brings you joy, but the dining room: OH BOY! First Class Chefs and First Class Servers who bring you your fill. So come experience lovely Sage Hill!

Treated terribly

Horrible experience. Would not recommend.
