Just did the new visitors log-in system at Cottingham Retirement Community. It is much more advanced than their prior system, providing additional security to the residents and staff. After entering basic information and getting a face scan, I received a visitor pass (which included a face photo) to apply to my shirt/coat. Logging out was easy, and any return visits are now a breeze. The system scans your face and you just need to verify and get the pass. For this to work, front desk staff needs to prompt all visitors to use the system. I too need prompting, as I have not had to check in for so long.

Lovely facility. The staff are kind and helpful. My mother is in the memory care section and her nurses and aides are lovely, compassionate, and empathetic. It's not a brand new shiny facility, but it's clean, in good repair, and very safe for the residents.

My dad has been here for almost two weeks and the experience has been great. The HR team, nurses, and staff have all been very helpful, welcoming, and supportive. The move-in process was smooth and accommodating, which made the transition much easier. I would definitely recommend this place.

I am just getting started here? I have met some great people here? I am happy to be here as well. I will see how things go here. I do not have any family at all? I have good acquaintances here? Yet I will have to give it more time to get familiar with this place. I hope things will improve here soon. It is not easy being alone with no family or extended friends to speak of. All of my friends and family are all gone. I am starting over again from scratch.

My elderly Aunt has recently moved from her 2 bedroom condo into a 1 bedroom independent living apartment at Cottingham. It is a lovely space and she could not be happier. They have Catholic Mass available on Saturday at 3. I joined her for Mass and stayed for dinner after. Ot was all quite lovely. Moreover, she feels safe and secure. All the staff we have interacted with are kind and welcoming.
