Woodland Retirement and Assisted Living Community

When we were first looking at the place and my loved one decided to move in, they were all very helpful in helping us pull it together really quickly and let us use their furniture for a while until we got my loved one her own.

We were impressed with this facility. My husband uses a walker and he really liked the extra wide hallways and large common areas. All of the staff we saw took time to greet us and say hello.. We both liked the spacious apartments and the and the bathrooms were designed with safety in mind. It's a definite possibility to be our choice.

Wish the food was better. It does have a nice variety but just not as good as I would like. The servers are good and friendly. The office staff are very good. It is clean. I feel out of place as most people need help roof some kind and we do not. Think we came a little to soon. I am not out going so hard to get acquainted.

Good location for family and medical care. Excellent response and followup on communication. Good activities scheduling and clean community grounds. We've had favorable recommendations from families of earlier residents.

I would give the staff 5+. We have no complaints about the food. It's a really good fit for our loved one, and they have a really good program. The initial discussion with the director, set it apart, she was very up front and honest about things and I made a connection with her. From there everything that she said or promised, turned out to be true.

They are clean and friendly. However, they let our resident run out of ALL of her medication, EVERYTHING was gone. There have been times when I was there and nobody even came by when we pulled the cord and pushed the button, we eventually ended up at the front desk. Their R.N. quit, and I am not aware if they have a new one yet, no one has introduced themselves. It looked great when we toured, but the food was cold when we tried it, and we get complaints that the food is terrible. The activities schedule seems great, but I don't think our resident participates. It would have been helpful if they had given us a checklist of things we would need to have together before we came, they told us some things, but there was a lot we didn't know. We initially were pretty happy with Woodland, until a few of these things started to happen. We liked that it was open and airy and that the staff was very friendly.

All in all it really is a good community they do a good job. The food could be better and they could have a better variety of menu choices. The people are really nice, both the staff and residents are very friendly. It's a great community, it's on the smaller scale, it feels like a home, not a facility.

They have some cottages that a lot of couples use. They're right across from a grocery store but not real convenient as far as walking to things. There's a drug store but there's not really any shopping other that.

Very homey and warm. I love how the staff all seem to know the residents, and the residents know them all by name. Everybody looks happy here, as well as they are all very clean. Can't say enough about Melissa! Wonderful woman! So far, this is the one I would recommend

I would rate them a 5 if the food were hotter. I've talked to them about the food and they say they're going to fix it. It's not cold, but it's not edible hot. It's kind of cafeteria style so there's a lot of gravy and meatloaf, by the time we get the gravy it's started to gel, if the food were hot it would make it enjoyable. There's a lot of complaint about the food not being warm but other than that it's very good. The activities are good, they're just starting a bridge club but I don't know if well have enough people who have enough ability, I know where I'm headed but I'm not there yet. I think they're kicking up the activities a bit more now. They have a lot of activities that most people enjoy, but I'm one of the younger ones here. We just started up a book club and I'm really excited about that. I believe younger people are coming into places like this so they're trying to find more things to do. I chose to get myself in a place where if somethign major happens I can stay in the same community, I would have to move to a different part but my kids wouldn't have to go find a place to "put mom". My only real complaint is the temperature of the food and even with that I would recommend this place to anybody.

Excellent staff and very clean, next to the Bonaventure next door it is my second choice in assisted living. It does not provide for continued skilled care but could provide acceptable support for the near future.

Possibility

spacious and safe Lock down area - depressing but apparently necessary. Single rooms for lock down area is the size of a bedroom and easy access to shower. Shared rooms/shared bathroom. On site Physician = requires initial physical. Doc will determine whether mom is eligible for Assisted living or Lock down care. Personally, mom in the lock down will not go well at all. It is a beautiful facility but an extremely depressing area.

includes one daily meal each, pets, utilities with expanded basic. They only charge one deposit for the dogs instead of a deposit apiece.

Exceptional facility, new and full of life. I highly recommend this Senior Living and Care complex with highly motivated staff and enough detail to satisfy all residence.

Very nice facility. Offering pricing incentives at times.

Paned windows, dogs ok. New, willing to work w/ me on cost.
