This place is not a retirement community, it is a home. With all sorts of love and unconditional care. My father was apprehensive… Now he is safe, happy, full belly and content.

From our residents

I have lived here for 10 years. I enjoy the staff, they treat me like family. I feel safe, and the home is always kept clean. Only steps outside the front door, you can board the transit bus, excellent location to live.
Brian U.Resident
Great place to live. I truly enjoy the staff, they are wonderful people. The meals are excellent. My most favourite thing to do is play the piano here. Parkview is close to shopping, a beautiful park, and Harmony Square.
Armond H.Resident
I would say “Parkview” is the #1 Retirement Home in Brantford. I enjoy the company of others. This home is kept clean and safe. I would recommend Parkview to anyone seeking a retirement home.
