Comox Valley Seniors Village has 136 long-term care suites. It opened in the Spring of 2009 as part of the Retirement Concepts campus of care. To ensure intimate, home-like surroundings, each mini-community has 15 rooms and its own dining area. Rooms are tastefully decorated in soft colours with comfortable furnishings.
Residents are encouraged to bring familiar belongings and decorations to create an atmosphere that is familiar to them and their families. The long-term care wing also offers private pay respite care for stays of two weeks or more upon availability.
The building features many amenities and services including lounges, wellness centre, hair salon, media, library, recreation hall, and outdoor courtyards.
Please note: We are a scent-free community.
This Campus of Care, located in the beautiful Comox Valley, is located near downtown Courtenay as well as other shopping centres and services. The Campus of Care model allows residents to 'age in place', and this is an ideal situation for couples who are able to remain in the same home as their care needs change.
At Retirement Concepts, it is our mission to improve the quality of life for seniors. We strive to fulfil our mission by providing seniors with elegant, comfortable surroundings and by giving them a choice of services and programs to suit their lifestyle. Throughout the delivery of our services, we have a strong customer service orientation and aim to offer superior value. At Retirement Concepts, we are equally committed to our customers and our staff. We provide a great work environment and treat each other with respect and dignity. We invest in the recruitment, training and retention of a quality workforce and invite active staff participation in decision-making.
At Retirement Concepts we believe in contributing positively to our communities. We strive to work honestly and effectively with all constituents of our communities and embrace diversity as an essential component to the way we do business. We believe that only in serving others well, can we serve ourselves well.
