Get To Know Us

Emily de Winter – General Manager

Livita Barrington, Barrie, ON

12+ years in the senior living industry. I am blessed to work where I get to meet interesting people every
day. I can’t imagine doing anything else! I am a travel-aholic! I have backpacked, lived, studied and
volunteered abroad. I want my children to see the world and culture that surrounds us!

I really enjoy the activities here. I love to play scrabble, do crafts and easy exercises. I love to go for walks everyday with my little dog Maggie. Having Maggie with me has been very good for my health.

I would highly recommend Livita Retirement Residences As soon as you enter Livita Retirement Residences, you will find yourself in a very welcoming lobby. The recent renovations on the main floor, which include a sitting area with a fireplace, as well as a bistro, are very inviting. The apartments are spacious and well laid out. The best part of Livita Retirement Residences is the staff! All of the staff, including housekeeping, kitchen, administration, and especially the PSW and nursing care staff have become like family. The attention to personal safety and well-being is highly apparent. During this uncertain time, I had full confidence in the goings on of Livita Retirement Residences.
