What Our Residents are Saying

My mom came to The Russell Hill straight from the airport when she came to live in Toronto 7 years ago! She has settled in so well and is thriving at the amazing age of 92. Every single staff member and employee is like gold. The residents are treasured and treated with utmost respect and dignity. Everybody feels like family walking through the doors. The entertainment, activities, and especially the music are absolute favourites.
