Compass Senior Living

It has been 2 years since my husband peacefully passed at WYNDEMERE ASSISTED LIVING, after being a resident for four years. I have chosen to submit a review of WYNDEMERE ASSISTED LIVING because, upon reflection, I must express my gratitude for the wonderful care & compassion shown to my husband and me during that time. Of course, at the heart of any care facility is the staff. I’ve had occasion to visit over the past two years. Although Care facilities normally have some staff turnover, I am so happy that familiar faces remain. I would like to give a special shout out to long time, hard working employee [name removed]…who is so multi-talented shown in her roles as Caregiver, Activity Director, and now in charge of keeping the place running as a well-oiled machine as Head of maintenance. Please, if in need of Residential care, consider a tour of WYNDEMERE. Meet [name removed] and also, [name removed], WYNDEMERE’s amazing Housekeeper, who works so diligentally, keeping the home clean and in ship-shape condition

10 stars for all. They made a lousy situation into a positive experience and went above and beyond. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would definitely recommend this community to other families.

Recently my mother passed away. Her time at Heatherwood was only 4 months. During her stay her care was exceptional. The staff went over and above in her care. The management were so easy to work with. They made us all feel "at home." Would definitely recommend.

All the staff is very caring. They have had some staff shortages since we've been there but I think that is pretty common nowadays. The staff that is there does their best to give the best care they can. It is expensive but seems to be average cost for that kind of facility. It was the closest to my home so I could visit easier. Also had heard good reviews of it.

My mother is currently a resident at The Grove at Midtown Senior Living and everything has been very good for her so far at this facility. The staff is good and loving. The facility is clean and has a positive feel to it. This facility is also a great value for most middle class families. The cleanliness, friendliness, staff and care services are great. The meals and dining and activities are good.

Weatherly Inn is incredible. When I think of retirement homes I usually think of a slow death and sadness. But there is so much life within the walls of this place. The look, the energy, and the people are above what I think most would expect or hope for. Unfortunately, my grandmother has never been a nice person. (Even she would attest to that statement.) She is more suited to a 3 star home. So we will not be having her join this lovely place.

I would say,it would be a good place for your loved ones.My loved one told me he wanted to stay in Yucipa,the other places I checked out I didn't care for,or were too expensive.

I would just tell others looking that the staff was very friendly and helpful to my mother and all the family during our experience here.

This is a home. They are a family here. The people that work here are the best. I lived here in 2016, moved for 7 months, now I'm back never move again.

We were originally looking for Memory Care, but based on the staff recommendations, we ended up choosing Assisted Living, because Memory Care is not yet a necessity. My loved one has lived there now for several months in Assisted Living, very happily. We are grateful because the Memory Care is a totally different level of care that she is not yet at. The housekeeping is very good. Her room and the whole facility pass the "smell test" on a regular basis. After just a few weeks, we felt like all of the nursing staff knew her and understood her routines. It was also very helpful that they knew us so when we (the family) would go visit, they would often pull us aside and give us an update, so that we would understand things that she didn't remember had occurred. They've been a great asset to our family and we feel like we are a team working towards the same goal of helping her live comfortably. The meals are quite good. It is a very easy process to go eat a meal with her for only five dollars. Where else can you get a decent meal for such a low price? Often we just go sit with her while she eats amongst some of her friends. The dining room is equipped with clean table linens at every meal and you are served by the staff at the facility as if you're in a restaurant. They take great pride in giving quality table service. I should also comment on the Activities Director. She is amazing in knowing every resident's name, always having an upbeat, positive attitude, and has a unique way of enticing residents to be involved in activities, including exercise and craft classes. Our loved one would never have done that on her own, but is now a regular participant in those activities. This gives her a reason to get up every day, get dressed, be clean, and make new friends while being active and keeping an active mind. We will forever be grateful to The Grove for a significantly improved quality of life for our loved one.

Assisted living anywhere is very expensive. This was about what you'd pay anywhere even if it wasn't the quality of Callahan. We were very grateful for the care mom received the short time she was there. It was excellent and we felt lucky there was a space available for mom. I would highly recommend it. And I will never forget how lovely every single person was, right down to engineering, who stopped by to see mom or pay their respects on her passing.

I always knew that when it was time to move from my home, that Heatherwood is where I wanted to be. I'm so happy to be here. Everyone is so friendly and it feels like family. I have made friends and am enjoying life.

Our kids helped find the best Assisted Living and they sure did a great job. We have settled in and love living here. The food is great and the staff is, too.

Prior to moving here nearly 6 years ago, we reviewed other assisted living facilities and found HeatherWood exceeded them all. Several have been built since so I can no longer give an objective opinion. But we consider HeatherWood to be "home." As an example, my wife died recently, and the care, concern, and compassion shown by the entire staff was remarkable. The service was held in the Chapel, and the total staff worked to make sure the service, the visitation, the lunch, and the full meal went smoothly. The caregivers are very friendly, and are rated as such. The meals are excellent. I've gained 10 pounds since coming here. There are more activities than I can take part in. I have no desire to live anywhere else.

One of the great places to live in Eau Claire.

I just visited my aunt for the first time at this facility. What really stood out was the sincerity of attention the staff provided. Their hearts are in the right place. The patience and attention they give is true and not "just a job". Would recommend highly. Many thanks to all the staff !

Woodland Palms is changing the game! From the daily opportunities for creativity and community engagement to the beautiful one-on-one relationships between residents and caregivers that reflect a care and compassion that is not necessarily what many elders are offered at this stage in their life, this community has left an undeniable impression on me.

This facility is a hidden jewel! The courtyard is beautiful. There are activities going on for the residents every day. The staff and management are extremely caring, kind, friendly, and knowledgeable. All of the residents seem very well taken care of and happy! This memory care facility has a very homey and comfortable vibe throughout the whole community. I highly recommend taking a tour and seeing for yourself!

Overall amazing staff who offer residents daily guidance, support and encouragement. A vital part of this community is the excellence and variety in ACTIVITIES. SPECIAL high honors are directed to [name removed]. She is VERY positive and always has a smile. One of the highlights for my wife (new resident) is the Sunday morning Worship Service. We start with a hymn sing, which greatly encourages her because she has been playing the piano in church and camp settings almost her whole life. Now she is able to bless other residents with her piano playing. [name removed] has multiple talents as she leads in various group activities, special projects, group outings and even helping to organize a PROM night which the residents LOVED. She organized donations of prom dresses which made each resident feel VERY SPECIAL! [name removed], my wife, family and I salute and THANK YOU. May God continue to give you the strength, insights and energy to carry on with enthusiasm.
