Everyone is nice and friendly. I have met mostly all the workers. Only a couple complaints for the whole year. The room sizes and amenities offered for residents are great. I highly recommend Whealdon Estates.
Oakwood Village was warm and welcoming to my mom. The staff were upbeat and helpful during the transition. This includes the aides, nurses, and housekeeping staff. The residents are happy and very friendly. The overall atmosphere is great. Mom loves the food and the staff are very accommodating when she chooses to eat in her room at times. The activities are entertaining with routine outings available to the residents. Mom continually says that if you need to live in assisted living then this is the place to be.
We chose Willimasburg Senior Living because it jus felt good when we walked in, we knew it was the right fit. The friendliness of the staff has been outstanding. The facility just has a good and positive vibe to it. The food is great, I think they are chef prepared meals. We would definitely recommend them to others looking.
