Everyone has their own reason for choosing to move into a Senior’s Community. The reasons our VRS seniors residents often give us are: the opportunity to socialise with others, home-cooked meals that are prepared, served, and cleaned for you, the absence of household chores, financial affordability, and more safety and security. We asked our most recent residents what they had to say about their new home at VRS Seniors Communities. Here’s what they had to share:

“With my family leaving Kelowna, I quickly needed somewhere safe and caring to live. I was relieved to find Orchard Gardens seniors community. I love it here!” - Muriel at Orchard Gardens, Kelowna

“Although 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 staff’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 you are looking for a home away from home, Charles manor is the place for you!”- Margaret at Charles Manor, Penticton
