C	Carmen Lasceski-Custers on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I had the pleasure of holding a Studio Recital for my private violin and vocal students at the Briton House Recital Hall. The Recital Hall is a hidden gem! It has wonderful acoustics, a baby grand piano, concert lighting, an in-house sound system, and wonderful theater style seating. The Briton House Staff were very attentive in helping to make sure that all my logistical needs were met; and the residents were a lovely and receptive audience. My students are still talking about how much fun they had performing at the Briton House!
B	Bill Milne on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Briton House has great entertainment programs. There are two movies nights and one live performance each week. I like the management team, they are really nice people. It is a nice atmosphere it’s not institutional. They have great meals and I look forward to not just the meal but the people you eat with. Karen and Susan on the management team have an infectious personality which shows all over the Briton House
A	Anne F on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My husband I have been living here for a long time. We like to walk, we walk every day in the outside garden, usually after breakfast and after lunch. You see friends and have a chance to say hello, it is social community. We have a good sized balcony in our unit. I have pots of flowers there and can satisfy my green thumb by caring for them, In this nice weather it works as another room.. There is a beautiful salt water swimming pool. I try to swim twice a week. We are fortunate to have such a nice place to exercise. Just outside the pool there is a balcony and when I swim , my husband walks there. The staff are very accommodating, Interested, concerned , helpful and happy. Briton House was the right move for us at this time.
A	Audrey Lowitz on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Briton House has a great community, I have been here for 10 months. The residents are very welcoming and the staff is very always there, you can tell they care about you, and they listen. I find it free to be myself here; it is a very relaxed atmosphere. There are many activities, movie nights, and trips to see different parts of the city. There is a lot of social interaction; I don’t feel isolated at the Briton House. I would recommend for someone looking for a community atmosphere, and caring staff.
A	Anonymous Resident on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I have been here for 3 years and I am the youngest in the building. I am the 5th generation of my family to live here. I used to come visit my parents for lunch and in 2016 I moved in. I have lived in this area my whole life, so a lot of the resident’s come to me when they want to know where things are or what to do in the neighbourhood. The staff here are wonderful and I get along with them quite well. David Smith, Margaret, Mark, John, Sandy, Matthew and Susan are all very lovely people. I enjoy living here and have no problems here. It’s a wonderful place to live and I knew the owner Mr. Wells very well. It’s a nice place, cozy and the atrium is very big and nice.
T	Tony Davies on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I am entering the 11th year of my stay at The Briton House and I cannot believe how well we are treated. Compared to the rest of the world I think we are extremely lucky. I think it’s quite remarkable. I swim everyday, we have great entertainment, I have no complaints about the apartment I live in, I am extremely lucky. Everything about the Briton House is extraordinary. There’s always someone available if you need help, you can call the office or the front desk. I don’t know how to explain it I think its just a miracle that this place exists. Even now today, we can go out to the patio [it’s not fun to wear a mask] but I can’t think of any other place id rather be that would make me this happy. The food is amazing. There’s a lot of independence here which is nice, but there’s also the security of having people around.
A	Anonymous on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I have been staying at the briton house for about 3 years now, at first it was really great but then COVID happened and thing starting deteriorating, like it did everywhere and for everyone. The leadership team handled COVID extremely well and we had no cases for a very long time. I was so happy that all of the residents and the staff were able to get our shots early on. I have a very nice table mate, we have amazing conversations and the community here is very friendly. We have a talented chef, and I like that if you don’t want what is on the menu that day, there is always an alternative that you can choose from.
K	Karin Lunan on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My Dad has been living at Briton House since October of 2019. Prior to the pandemic, Dad loved the daily exercise classes, music concerts and socialising over meals in the dining room. Briton House acted quickly and proactively getting PPE early on, to protect staff and residents. Their frequent and regular updates for family of residents, have been helpful, comforting and appreciated. Briton House is one of the first, if not the first, long term care facility to have all staff and residents vaccinnated! An amazing accomplishment! Although we have missed, in person visits, I know staff are working hard to return to, some normalcy for their residents. I have every confidence, their knowledge and skill, attention to detail and care will make this happen.
