My partner's grandmother lives here, and he went to go visit her recently. She's been having such a great time and she has her own apartment and is able to have her own autonomy, and he was able to visit and they were able to lend him a space to stay for a few days. All in all, the staff are great, the environment's great, and there are community events and overall it's a very enriching space. Five stars.

I cannot walk but I get around on a stand up rollator. The OPA is accommodating with wide doors and ramps. And better still with the empathy of the residents.

Excellent! Kind, compassionate, accomodating, understanding, selfless....Camille accomodated my father at short notice...I was undoubtedly impressed, and was even more appreciative the way they treated my father and his situation once he was there. I wholeheartedly recommend OPA for anyone considering placing a family member or needs a nice respite stay.❣️❣️
