VIVA Thornhill Woods Retirement Community

When I started thinking about retiring and selling my condominium, I did visit several retirement homes. I found that Viva was for me. My apartment, my choice, was the right one for my needs and comfort. The building itself is very welcoming and bright, I met people I knew, and their programs presented, the live entertainment, especially Wendy's programs, exercise classes, outings, three good healthy meals a day, the waitresses and waiters in the dining room, and the staff, are most obliging.

I am retired: no food shopping, cooking, or cleaning. It is all provided by Viva.

Sincerely,
Hilda Fisher

I think we toured 10 other residences before selecting Viva. It was actually a pretty easy decision, as Viva stood out in so many ways. The main areas are bright and always full of people and activities. The many food options at each meal was a great bonus (although I think I'd just have the blintzes every day). Mom's room is bright and cheery.
From the start, Wendy was another big part of our choice. I have always found her to be knowledgeable, supportive and helpful. She always went above and beyond to make sure that mom was happy. And of course - that great smile of hers.
Initially, mom did have some difficulty settling in to her new home, but Wendy and all the other staff were always there to help (both mom and me). It makes me so happy now to talk to mom and hear her say "I just love living here at Viva". Thanks to all the Viva staff for making that possible.

Aging affects all of us differently and verifies that nothing is perfect. So come join us at Viva where loneliness is non-existent. You have at least two choices of activities three times a day to suit your needs and wants. You can be as busy as you choose, or relax in a manner that suits you. Exercise, swimming, entertainment, games, schmoozing, companionship, crafts, books, or company, etc. etc. etc. You’re fed, and bed!! Almost perfection?

My husband and I have been at V!VA Thornhill Woods for close to two years. I found there are a lot of activities, such as Zumba, exercise in the swimming pool, and regular exercise in the full gym. There is a bus that takes us to the bank, shopping, trips to the park in the summer, as well as concerts. The food is plentiful and varied, and the staff and community members are very nice.

V!VA,
The next best place to home. The setting, atmosphere, staff, activities, food, residents - all merge to make a pleasant experience that makes my life relaxed, comfortable, and happy.
