Maplewood Retirement Community offers a thoughtful range of care options designed to meet residents wherever they are in their journey. Independent Living is available for seniors who are active and self-sufficient but appreciate the reassurance of having emergency nursing services accessible when needed. It provides the lifestyle of home with the added comfort of a supportive community around you. Assisted Living builds on everything included in independent living and adds personalized physical care to help residents with everyday activities, allowing people to maintain their dignity and routine with a little extra help. Memory Care is available for residents living with dementia or other memory-related conditions, providing a safe and structured environment focused on comfort, familiarity, and specialized support. Respite Care offers a short-term stay option, which can be ideal for seniors recovering from a health event or for families who need temporary care coverage for a loved one. Maplewood is also recognized as a Retirement Home, bringing together this full continuum of care under one welcoming roof.
Daily life at Maplewood is shaped by a rich mix of amenities that make every day feel both comfortable and engaging. Mornings might begin with a nourishing meal in one of the beautiful dining rooms, where residents gather and connect over good food. Snacks are available anytime, so there is never a need to wait until the next scheduled meal. For special occasions or private gatherings, a dedicated private dining room gives families and residents a more intimate space to share a meal together. Throughout the day, residents can explore an impressive range of activities and spaces. The fitness and wellness centre and swimming pool make it easy to stay active, while the spa and hair salon offer a chance to relax and feel your best. Creative residents gravitate toward the arts and crafts room, while those who enjoy a bit of friendly competition often find themselves in the billiards and games room. Movie screenings, library visits, and time spent in the technology centre round out a full and varied daily rhythm. When the mood calls for something a little more social, the pub and cocktail lounge provides a relaxed setting to unwind with neighbours. Outside, the beautifully maintained gardens and grounds offer a peaceful retreat for those who love fresh air and nature. Organized excursions and outings give residents a chance to explore Ottawa and beyond, with full transportation provided on an accessible bus. Practical needs are equally well covered, with laundry and dry cleaning services, on-site vendors and shopping, concierge services available around the clock, WiFi throughout the building, and parking on site.
Families and residents return to Maplewood not just for its amenities, but for the sense of trust and belonging it consistently delivers. Knowing that a full-time activities manager is coordinating both in-house programming and community outings gives families confidence that their loved ones are engaged and looked after. The availability of multiple care levels within one community means that if a resident’s needs change over time, they do not have to uproot their life or leave the friendships they have built. Small pets are welcome, which matters deeply to many seniors who rely on the companionship of an animal. The 24/7 concierge service ensures that help and information are always within reach, day or night. Residents and their families have shared that Maplewood feels like home from the very first visit, a sentiment that speaks to the genuine warmth of the staff and the spirit of the community.
Maplewood sits in Ottawa’s Riverview Park neighbourhood, an established area that balances peaceful residential surroundings with convenient access to everything a resident could need. The community is close to nature, making it easy for residents to enjoy green spaces and seasonal scenery. Shopping is never far away, with St. Laurent Centre and Billings Bridge Shopping Centre both easily accessible nearby. The neighbourhood has a settled, community-oriented character that suits active seniors well, offering the kind of environment where errands are simple, outings are enjoyable, and the pace of life feels just right.
