Blessed to have found Whisper Woods

The community is beautiful and well maintained. The staff is friendly, helpful and attentive. The nursing staff is on top of all the residents healthcare needs. There are plenty of activities to interest everyone. Our family feels blessed to have found this Assisted Living to care for our parents. We now have peace of mind and can enjoy time with them without having to be full time caregivers.

Excellent staff. Friendly, helpful and attentive. The transition was real hard for my mom, she had trouble grasping facts about her memory and assisted living. Staff interaction, interview process was awesome! Price was high to me, however, I hadn't looked into these facilities and had no idea that they all are pricey. I would totally recommend this facility to others.

Review for Whisper Woods of Smithtown

I am confident that my parents are well cared for in by well trained, caring people.Would definitely recommend. The staff on the memory unit seems to know each resident's likes and dislikes and their distinct personalities. They are receptive to our bringing special foods that our parents like. One negative might be that they cannot meet special dietary needs, ie, lactose or gluten intolerance. I don't know about diabetic diets.

A Wonderful Extended Family

It isn’t an easy decision to make when it comes time to look for alternative living and care arrangements for parents, but we made the exact right choice in Whisper Woods of Smithtown. We couldn’t’ have asked for a more wonderfully dedicated, compassionate and amazing community of care givers. I have seen everyone go so above and beyond for the residents; treating our parents, and we children, like family. From the front desk to the medical staff, dining and maintenance crews, support staff and administrators, there isn’t a day that goes by in which someone doesn’t make a significant difference in our and our parents’ lives; be it a cheerful greeting, loving medical care, great food and service, help with daily household needs, fun activities, an entertaining dance or arranging for special circumstances and needs. Our family has grown tremendously because we now consider each and every employee a coveted member. Our thanks to everyone at Whisper Woods!

Whisper Woods of Smithtown is a very nice facility and they gave us a great tour. I was impressed with everything that I saw except for the price, it was extremely expensive and that is the reason we did not choose this facility.

Perect place for your loved one

The staff is great. My loved one does not really like the food. my loved one is getting great care. The facility has been, more than accomodating, very friendly, quick to respond to anything that I may have questions or concerns about, and they are overall really great. In addition, I have had great interaction with the executive chef, who is wonderful.

Highly Recommend

Beautiful, and clean facility. Good food, varied menu. Kind, caring staff who demonstrate respect for residents and maintain their dignity. Residents are free to maintain their own schedule vis-a-vis sleeping, eating, napping. In six months there isn't one staff person we've encountered with whom we can find fault. Highly recommend!

The Best of the Best

Whisper Woods of Smithtown is amazing. They are absolutely fantastic. I'm very proud and lucky this is where my loved one calls home. The staff goes above and beyond in everything they do. I've worked in the industry for years and have come across many facilities with poor reputations. I'm so glad we found Whisper Woods, with people who take pride in their work. Every time I'm there, I'm always impressed with how clean it is. My mother loves the food, and she loves the activities they provide. On a daily basis, they offer up to 8 activities. Honestly, I never thought she would participate, but not a day goes by that she doesn't join in the activities. Of all the places I've seen over the years, I can honestly say they are one of the best assisted living facilities I've come across.

Would recommend the facility to anybody who requires Alzheimer's' care.

The staff here is very good. So are the nurses. They're very busy - they're shorthanded now, I understand due to Covid. I just wish there were more staff members so they could answer the phone and respond to my calls. But overall, they've helped my loved one tremendously. I visited 10 facilities in the area, and I'm happy that I chose Whisper Woods.

This Community is Great for the Right Fit

The staff was very good at handling the residents. The community is new and beautiful. They are always hiring people. We ended up having an aid after the second night for our loved one. I feel that our loved one should have been in a different community due to his dementia. The food was even decent.

Coming from the perspective of a wife and nurse, this is a great overall community.

We love the staff, they are wonderful. We would give them 10 out of 10 stars if we could. This place is a little more on the expensive side. They do need to improve on their activities in the memory care unit. However the music program is the best for these patients. The food is not the best. The rooms are pretty good size, you get what you pay for. Some rooms you share a bathroom unless you have private room. One thing that really stood out to us was the decor at this community and the friendless of the staff.

Whisper Woods Of Smithtown

As a registered nurse, I have never seen care like they have given there. Every person I have come across here is caring, compassionate, and kind. The staff is so exceptional and they have really gone out of their way to communicate with us about our loved one's care. You really get the feeling they care. The food could be better. I don't think they have enough activities available. They do have a lot of activities available, should the residents choose to participate. I think given how much we are paying, the value is up to par for the care they are giving. I highly recommend the memory care area at Whisper Woods!

There’s None Better

My father has been a resident of Whisper Woods since January, and we are thrilled. The place is clean, the food is great, and the staff is awesome. Deciding my father needed more help than we could give him at home was not easy to do. After looking at a few places, choosing Whisper Woods was a no brainer. What really puts them over the top is their terrific staff. Everybody who has visited my dad made a point of commenting on how terrific the staff is. They comment on their friendliness, helpfulness, and genuineness. They all go that extra mile. I am so happy knowing that my dad is in such good and caring hands as those we’ve found at Whisper Woods.
