Sonida Senior Living

It’s someplace my dad said he’d never go - a senior home. But his health needs were changing. My mom had passed some years ago. Out of 6 children 2 lived out of town and the rest of us had full time jobs. He needed attention and most importantly interaction with his peers. He and his family Dr had very frank conversation and with tears in his eyes he agreed “It was time”. The Wellington was the perfect fit. He could take his furniture and create a comfortable living space. He was introduced to his “new audience” - new friends. Amazingly there were people he knew either through church, or bowling leagues, or work. The staff was amazing. These are people who really care. Walking in the door to visit they recognize me and if he and I go out - they are quick to give a parting pleasantry. His medicines were administered daily without worry. He actually enjoyed the meals. Lots of choices. Family could join him for meals at any time, which he enjoyed. Activities were offered - some days he felt like it - some times not and that was ok. The staff was always keeping me informed if anything was out of the norm - medication changes, reaction, meal habit changes. They cared! As dad’s health declined after several months he was surrounded by wonderful people. Everyone from aids to Administration was checking on him. Even the wonderful housekeeping staff was checking on him and spending a few extra minutes with him and he loved it. He met so many great people at The Wellington who motivated him to be more engaged, to be more active, to smile more. As his health deteriorated Hospice was able to come there. He didn’t have to leave and he dealt comfort in that. His new neighbors were there for him, prayed with him and supported him in his final journey. Everyone we encountered at The Wellington was professional, caring, compassionate and sincere. I never worried when I left after a visit. He was in good hands - if not the best hands. They were like family.

Very clean and professional. Looks kind of like a hospital setting with a central station and rooms off to the sides. Looks very organized and well-taken care of.

Excellent long term staff that is very passionate about what they do. Smaller community, only 20 residents, nice one bedroom kitchenette apartments, nice park like setting and walking paths.

The people at Wynnfield Crossing are the most important reason for this review. They are all so caring and respectful of the residents, as if the people living there are their own relatives. [names removed] are wonderful, but there are many others from the servers in the dining room to the resident assistants who are so caring, friendly and warm. My Mom loves every single one of them. Besides the people, the apartments are warm and inviting; the food is good and the activities are fun. My Mom is very happy that she moved to Wynnfield and so am I.

Nice community with great amenities. We really liked the wide variety of activities and dining options available.

What a lovely facility! I was impressed as I walked into the large, open lobby and the friendly receptionist greeted me. I was happy with the wide choice of activities daily and the variety of meals available for the resident's at any time. The food was made with fresh ingredients and very tasty. I loved that they had a baker! The nursing staff were very caring to the residents, they truly had a rapport with the resident's, felt like family. The apartments were very nice with lots of storage. Will definitely consider this facility when the time comes that I need the care.

As I stepped into the Waterford I was greeted by a spacious, airy lobby and a friendly receptionist. As I toured the facility, I was amazed by the variety of activities and the cleanliness of the facility. The food was delicious, fresh and homemade. The fresh baked bread was definitely a highlight of the resident's meal. The apartments were nice with lots of storage. The staff was caring and attune to the residents as they were caring for them. I would absolutely choose this facility for my parents

My mother has lived at The Waterford for 2 1/2 years and we could not be more pleased. When it became apparent that it was time to move Mom from her home of 50+ years making the decision on an assisted living was one of the most difficult of our lives. The staff of The Waterford made everything about this transition so smooth and pleasant for Mom and us kids. Questions and concerns are addressed and resolved promptly and professionally. I truly see every day that the staff care for the residents as if caring for their own family.

The most caring and competent staff! Such an active and vibrant community!

We loved it! It was spacious without feeling huge; well decorated; large, spacious rooms with a tiny "kitchen area" - fridge, microwave, tiny sink and cupboards along one wall; large bathroom with private walk in shower.; in a quiet neighborhood. Moving my dad in soon!

I believe my mom would do well at the Wellington.

The Waterford at Ironbridge is a beautiful place that is tucked behind businesses and off the main street. [Name removed] was caring, kind and professional. This was my first tour and I was impressed.

We have been so very blessed in the care and nurturing our precious mother has received and continues to experience every day at Cedar Bluff. Every staff member, no matter what role they serve, treats each and every resident with loving kindness. It is such a privilege to call everyone at Cedar Bluff our extended family!

Very informative tour. Liked everything we were shown. Feel it would be a good fit if and when Mom needs to be in an Assisted Living facility.

So Monday I toured the Wellington, first off the remodeling that the ED has done is Phenomenal. I tore this community for years ago for my mom and we were stuck her somewhere else now I’m touring for my father.. So today I put down my deposit for him to live there it’s outstanding the activities they have for the men and women there and they’re really pumped about all their new church services that areGoing on Bible studies on Wednesday. It’s so warm in walking into this building it’s like going home . The staff had a smile on their face and everybody was extra polite. The marketing director knew my dad had a dog and had him a doggy gift bag with dog food and treats and bowls in all kinds of sweet things for my dad’s dog.

I am responding to the TERRIBLE CARE review from July. It has put a burr under my saddle to say the least!!! My mother has been living in Memory Care at Cedar Bluff for over 2 1/2 years. She was one of the first residents in the Memory Care section, and I am at CB almost every day to visit her. I can tell you that I totally disagree with their review. The caregivers have been nothing but loving and caring to my Mother and the other residents there. The residents are in all stages of dementia and I have personally witnessed the exchanges between the staff and the residents and all I see is nothing but respect and kindness directed to all the residents. Believe me, my Mother's well-being is my first priority and I would have moved her if I ever saw anything that would make me uncomfortable or that was being done to her or ANY other resident living there.

Cedar Bluff is literally an answer to prayer. My dad has Parkinson's, and after a stay in the hospital last October, he was receiving home health care. He hated every minute of it. He felt like a prisoner in his own home. We decided to explore other options, so we toured several assisted living communities. By the end of our first visit to Cedar Bluff, we both knew it was the place for him. He didn't love the idea of assisted living, but we were so impressed with Cedar Bluff's beautiful community, pretty apartments, warm and caring staff, and great amenities. We took the leap of faith and moved my dad in. We are so thankful we did! He's been there for six months now, and he told me he's surprised how quickly Cedar Bluff felt like home. He is thriving in every way thanks to the exercise classes, games, Bible studies, outings, and loving, compassionate care. He also loves the independence of having his privacy when he wants it in his own beautiful apartment. I know how important it is to find just the right home for your loved one. It can be daunting, but do not hesitate to visit this wonderful community. It will give you hope!

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING MY FATHER HASN"T BEEN THIS HAPPY IN ALONG TIME HE ENJOYS PLAY MEXICAN DOMINO AND HANG OUT TALKING TO THE GUYS, ITS BEEN HARD SINCE MOM PASSED AND THEY HAVE GOTTEN HIM OUT OF HIS SHELL!!!!! HATS OFF TO THE ED AND THE NURSE YALL SURE MADE A DIFFERENCE IN MY DAD.... THANKS

The staff was amazing took the time to meet and answer all my questions, my neighbors mother lives there and she is always doing activities and the food was wonderful. The managers all meet with me and gave me a list of there numbers incase we had a question about anything, the fact that they are newly updating the community was also nice. I would say this is a wonderful place my father will be moving at the 1st of the month.

Friendly community with nice open areas. The apartments were large with a kitchenette. Large windows let in a lot of light. Located in a quiet area. It would be easy for dad to get around since he still drives.
