A little fall creativity at Wisteria Place! 🍂✨

On Reconciliation Day, we had a special learning moment at Wisteria Place. Our retired teacher, Judy, read Be a Good Ancestor with our residents, a beautiful book rooted in Indigenous teachings, written by Leona Prince and Gabrielle Prince and illustrated by Cree artist Carla Joseph.

The book reminds us of our connection to one another, the land, and future generations, and encourages us to think about the impact of our actions and the kind of world we want to leave behind.

Judy is always teaching us something new. Once a teacher, always a teacher!

Today, on World Alzheimer's Day, we invite you to take a moment to learn the difference. with (TAG) Allison Schindler, Optima Living’s Regional Director, Memory Care, Lifestyles, and Programs.


Together, we can promote understanding, build supportive communities for people experiencing dementia and Alzheimer's Disease, and encourage conversations about brain health.

September is here. The air is a little crisper, the leaves are just beginning to turn, and there's a quiet shift that signals the end of summer.

But some things stay the same. A morning coffee in a favourite spot, familiar faces at the dining table, and the comfort of knowing what the day holds.

These small, consistent moments are what make daily life feel grounded.

What's your favourite part of the daily routine?

An Incredible 5 Years! 🥂💜

09/06/2026

This past week, we celebrated 5 incredible years of Wisteria Place! 💚🎉

It was such a special day bringing together our residents, families, team, GM Elena, Regional Operations Manager Leanne and Head of Finance Calvin, and the Steveston Temple Buddhist Board to celebrate this milestone.

There was laughter, great company, and an amazing steak BBQ thanks to Jonathan, our Maintenance Manager. 🥩🔥 And of course, nitin, our Executive Chef, treated everyone to a delicious fresh strawberry cake! 🎂

Celebrating 5 years is wonderful, but seeing our Wisteria Place community come together is what made the day truly special. Here’s to 5 incredible years and many more memories ahead! 💚✨

There is something about a warm summer day that invites you to slow down and take it all in. The air is a little warmer, the light lingers a little longer, and the world feels quieter.

At Optima Living, we make it easy to enjoy summer to the fullest. From sunny afternoon walks along our beautifully maintained grounds to patio socials, outdoor games, and barbecues, there is always a reason to step outside and embrace the season.

What is your favourite thing about summer?
