About Schlegel Villages

Hospitals and Health Care
1001-5000

Canadian owned and operated, Schlegel Villages manages high quality long term care and retirement Villages across Ontario. Our Villages benefit from the Schlegel family having over 70 years of direct experience co-owning, managing and operating Long Term Care and Retirement Communities in Ontario.

The Schlegel Family’s overarching mission is to build and strengthen community. One very important and tangible way of building community is by providing care and quality of life for older adults, which we have been doing for 70 years.

Our central belief is that elders should be kept at the centre of our communities, not relegated to the periphery. The Villages we create are places where elders can live a life of meaning and purpose while continuing to stay connected and contributing to the broader community.
