A message from Ken Fraser
Executive Director, VRS Communities
For nearly five decades, VRS Communities has been raising affordable living standards across British Columbia and Alberta, and we’re focused on carrying this commitment through to our seniors residences. VRS Seniors Living has a new approach and a strong commitment to honouring our seniors—what they want, what they need, and most importantly, how they want to live.
As a non-profit organization, we reinvest every dollar into enhancing our residents’ quality of life. We are committed to finding innovative ways to improve seniors’ lives, listening closely to our residents and their families, and ensuring their voices shape everything we do. This approach ensures that we not only meet but consistently exceed expectations. We are unwavering in our commitment to creating an exceptional living experience that puts our residents at the center of everything we do. At VRS Seniors Living, our promise is simple: we are here to support you, respect you, and help you thrive.
