✨ New on the Brookside Blog! ✨

We’re excited to share more about the Spark Program — Brookside’s small-group recreational therapy program designed for seniors with physical or cognitive support needs.

With no more than 4–5 participants per session, our residents receive the time, patience, and personalized support that allows them to participate confidently. These small groups not only build confidence and fuel the spirit but also help seniors develop and strengthen special skills in a safe, encouraging environment.

At Brookside Retirement Living in Ottawa, we believe staying active, engaged, and socially connected is key to wellness—physically, mentally, and emotionally.

💚 Meet Kelly 💚

A familiar and much-loved face has returned to Brookside Living, and we couldn’t be happier. Kelly is back in a new role on our 2nd floor as our “Den Mom,” bringing warmth, compassion, and a caring presence to our residents each day.

Kelly spends her time checking in, sharing smiles, offering reassurance, and making sure everyone feels seen, heard, and supported. Her genuine care and connection truly touch the hearts of our 2nd floor residents and make Brookside feel even more like home.

Welcome back, Kelly — thank you for the love and heart you bring to our community every day. 💫

❄️✨ Exciting News from Brookside Retirement Living! ✨❄️

We are thrilled to share that we’ll soon be launching a brand-new website, featuring an educational blog dedicated to senior living—designed to inform, support, and guide families as they navigate the many stages of aging.

One topic especially close to my heart this winter is winter staycations at Brookside. In fact, my very own mom will be joining us this season to enjoy all the perks of spending the colder months here at Brookside. ❤️

For many seniors, winter can be isolating and challenging. That’s why so many people choose to spend one, two, or even three months with us during the colder season. From warm, chef-prepared meals and engaging daily activities to companionship, support, and peace of mind with 24/7 staff on site—life at Brookside stays full, social, and stress-free all winter long. We are excited to offer (limited time) $90/day short stay for January 2026. Take advantage of a great rate and new friends.

Looking forward to meeting you!
Christine.
