10 Best Assisted Living Facilities in Gravenhurst, ON

It's a beautiful place to live. My mom was at another home in Barrie and when she broke her hip she was not welcomed back. We found Mulcaster Mews. Mulcaster sent their nurse to do an assessment of mom at the hospital to make sure they can look after her needs. I can't say enough about how caring the staff is at Mulcaster. They go beyond the call of duty. The home is small but cozy and mom felt comfortable right from the beginning. She has recovered from her hip surgery and enjoying her stay there.

One takeaway from the covid pandemic has certainly been re-embracing the feeling of being grateful. Most importantly, my family and I are very grateful to the Sundial Retirement Residence for their processes and procedures during covid. At all times they have put their residents first,, their safety, their mental and emotional health while also thinking of the residents' families and the strain on them not being allowed to go inside the Sundial to see their loved ones. The management staff approved patio visits which were so lovely during the warmer weather. Visits were always protected by covid screening, wearing of masks and dependent upon the guidelines of the Ministry.

My parents moved in and they were there a short time when Dad became sick. They were understanding and allowed us to come and go, as needed. When we lost Dad, they were very supportive to Mom. The meals are very good. Most of the staff members are approachable and friendly. Mom's room is always clean and the staff do check on the residents. So I would say it is a pleasant place to live and my Mother enjoys it there.
