“Jenny and I purchased this facility in September 2004. We both like this care home because it is small and has a real warmth to it; the staff is caring and friendly. Pine Grove has served the seniors of Kamloops for over 20 years and it is a jewel in the city. What really impressed us was the active involvement by the residents and families through their Resident & Family Association. This group provides support and feedback to Administration as well as fund raising and volunteer activities which has benefited both resident programs and the gardens.” Al Jina, President.

Everyone knew he really didn’t like to eat much, however, he would tell us, the grub is damn good – we appreciate the love and dedication Dad received from you. We always felt welcomed and at home when we came to visit. We were always informed and given guidance…”.
- “My mother has been a resident of Pine Grove for over four years now, and I cannot express enough gratitude for the wonderful care she receives. My three brothers and I have watched over Mom carefully as she has always been a kind and gentle person, and we hoped that she would receive the same in her declining years since her stroke. We could not ask for more – what she has received is exceptional…”.
