I have lived here for about a year and a half. I have enjoyed it immensely. Very friendly people live and work here. I recommend it for people 65 years old and older. We get three meals a day plus snacks. We get activities that are great. We have exercise programs for 45 minutes at least 2 times a week. There is also bingo and occasionally we will get entertainment from the community. That is great and very enjoyable. We have sing a longs and bell choir. During the holidays, the staff is wonderful in surprising us with different kinds of activities that we don't do on a regular basis. We also have someone come in to do chair yoga with us. To me, it is a great place to live. The staff is very helpful.
My father felt very isolated there as they did not have many activities he was interested in. He did not like the food but the personnel were friendly to him and helped him to meals and gave him his medications but otherwise he did not see them very often as he did not leave his room. He was 99 years and it was hard for him to wheel himself around the facility. Much of the problem was his age and his ability to help himself as he should have and the lack of activities.
My loved one is very happy living at Heritage Woods. The staff are doing a good job. The food is good. The community is clean and well taken care of. They offer daily activities.
