Wayman Place

What we like about Wayman Place is the friendly staff who work there, but their communication could be better and some Dr visits feel rushed. However, we would recommend this community to other families based on the experience we have had so far

Everything promised up front totally unfulfilled. Told first month being July would be half off in honor of veterans was not. Asked administration about this she scoffed and stated said sounds like a whole lot of he said she said to me turned her back & walked off. Administrator couldn’t say much money would be debited the first month after taking a blank check to make a copy of it. Brand new expensive things were removed and never returned by staff from room and witnessed on one occasion. Medications transferred from previous faculty disappeared upon arrival so all new medications had to be purchased at our expense which couldn’t be done immediately. Does of heart medications necessary for health were missed. Took staff hours to answer call button to assist toileting so accidents occurred leaving client feeling ashamed with loss of dignity. Administration stated alert button wasn’t pressed it was witnessed it had been a staff was also witnessed turning it off. Roach infested.

The food has really gone downhill since the longtime chef left.

Overall, the facility is very clean but it doesn't appear my mother's floors have been cleaned in a while. We picked this community, because of the size, overall appearance, and services offered. It was also my mother's preference. I would say my mother is thriving, and she and our family are very happy we made this decision. I would recommend to other families.

So far they've taken really good care of my dad. They've been attentive to his needs. And as a family member, they've been very responsive to any questions or concerns. I think the rooms are very spacious as well.

All the residents seem to complain about the food. I don't think it is that bad. Every time I visit they have activities available for the residents to choose from. The community is modern. The staff is willing to assist the residents in anyway possible.

Overall this is a great place. It is not large and my loved one is comfortable here. The biggest issue is that my loved one needs assistance and it is not always available in a timely manor. The staff are great, there is only one staff member that we have issues with and other than that things are good.

We have had an issue with bugs in my loved ones' rooms twice. The cleaning staff is not very dependable and the room can be very dirty. There has been inconsistency with billing and I am having issues getting this explained.

It is mediocre. The value for the money I don't think is there. The cleanliness of my loved one's room needs improvement. I've made complaints about the room and promised that it would be taken care of, and most of the time it isn't. The staff could be trained better in memory care for the residents. The people are friendly. They have a new director in the last few months. He has been more hands-on.

The care services at this community my vary, and they currently do not have a chef. We will send bags of food to our loved one so she has food to eat. They are actively looking for a new chef. They also lost the house keeping and maintenance man, however everyone is pitching in to help where they can. Our aunt is currently in the hospital, she got sick during the night and they did not clean her clothes or bedding, so she laid in feces throughout the entire night. They do take everyone's temperatures daily, in the beginning they may of had two, but no deaths and currently no cases.

Wayman Place is immaculate, it is very clean and well kept. However, we do not feel as if we get our moneys worth and some of the staff members and care givers are very friendly and compassionate and others are not. A handful are not compassionate for this line of work. Our loved one says the food is terrible and there just is not a lot of variety to choose from. During COVID we were expecting them to clean our loved ones room once a week, since we were paying for this service and when we were finally able to visit that was not happening. There was empty boxes piled up, pictures laying on the floor and clothes piled up in the laundry room. No one was helping our loved one make her place feel homey.

I search 10 locations before I placed my 90-year old mother into Wayman Place. Wayman is a very caring and well organized community! I highly recommend Wayman Place if you are considering for your loved one!

I loved it, and they are coming to my home on Wednesday to review my mother's service level care needed to see if it is a fit. The cost was the lowest of the group. And the Wayman Place is one of my top two choices including the Good Samaritan in Deland. If the Wayman Place will lower their price to make it a little more affordable, and they indicated they may, then this may be my final choice for my mother. It's a smaller group of 60+ but seems a little more like home, caring and only 5 miles from my home to visit when I am in town. This may be the perfect choice, but would need to lower their price to make it work for my mother.

Beautiful place great people!

It wasn't a good fit for my grandmother that has alzheimer's. The back yard area did have an opening where she could 'escape' if she wandered off and no one saw her. And it didn't have a pleasant smell.

My loved one was here for respite care, and overall, I feel that the environment was good for him. The staff was very nice, and very helpful. The food, to me, seemed pretty good, and the community itself was very clean and well taken care of.
