Waltonwood Senior Living

The cleanliness is excellent, I guess the care is everything that could be expected. The only thing they could improve on is the food. Sometimes it's not as hot as it could be, sometimes certain things aren't prepared well, like my sister says the ham is always tough and the bean soup, you'd be lucky to get a bean. She is just growing into activities now, there's a lot to do she just has to get out and do it, but she's getting used to this lifestyle. I would say they provide the information on activities, I don't think there's a whole lot of encouragement. I guess they have what they call captains, experienced peeople there who try to get them involved. I think she's enjoying it, she's running around and buying new furniture now.

This place was nice but expensive. We ended up finding something cheaper and in a better location. It was closer to my friend's doctor.

I'm actually pretty happy with Waltonwood care of my mother because my mother is happier here than she was at home. She's safer and enjoys the daily attention. She really enjoys the activity people exercise fun activities the best. My one concern is, I wish I had a fob to get into memory care so I didn't always have to wait and beg people to let me in. If you are the primary person visiting, I think a fob would be appropriate. I am pretty happy with the facility

They were all on board when we were getting signed in.But once we were there, I cannot get anyone to respond to my phone calls or concerns. The front desk folks are awesome, and seem to care Administration finally responded to me and I feel good about the results

Most of the staff is very helpful and kind. There are some staff members there who work in the office who are not very communicative. And we have been disappointed on some issues that we have brought up.

We like the mature trees, gardens, and landscaping. Not much shade at new places. Mom does fuss about the food but maybe because it is becoming routine.

Nice facility, they are in the middle of a renovation which, in my opinion is a good thing as it appeared a bit dated, but obviously a very popular facility. There was no parking available at all, so they must be doing something right.

Food is excellent, space is larger and updated, more programs and larger variety of programs. Yes, definitely would recommend.

I liked the fitness session, apartment was small and dated. I didn't see many patients out. The hallways were wide.

Really enjoyed the tour with [name removed]. Loved the variety of activities available here. Residents appeared in good spirits. Slightly, disappointed by room layouts, appearance and size.

What we like the most about the community is the friendliness of everyone - residents and staff. We felt immediately welcomed. We would absolutely recommend this community to other families.

Move in was great. People helpful but my parents don't like the food. Room is very spacious. The other two bedroom we looked at reminded us of a college dorm. This feels like a home.

It seems like a fine place, it is clean with good food and activities.

Questions answered, tour provided, activities, level of care, apartment options all discussed. Nice facility and staff. The facility has recently been updated. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable.

What we like the most about the community is that there are always things going on. Yes we would recommend Waltonwood - Cary to other families based on the experience so far.

I would recommend them. The employees are very helpful as are the people that live there. We chose them because it was close to family and the cost.

My mother has been here for about a month and we do not regret the decision. Waltonwood is clean and the staff is friendly. There is some room for improvement on the welcome process I think. It would’ve been nice to have somebody check in after 4-5 days and see how the resident is acclimating but I don’t believe this ever happened. Similarly, I don’t think much effort was made to pull mom in to daily activities and events- seems resident needs to be a self starter in that regard. But still, things are progressing fine and mom seems happy.

My mother has high blood pressure and they really don't cater to special dietary needs. She started out in independent living and is now in Memory care. The transition to memory care was handled very well. The staff in memory care does a great job with taking care of the residents and activities. Always very friendly and you can call them any time. On the independent living side she often did not go to the dining room for dinner because the food was too spicy or salty.

Walton Wood Ashburn is a beautiful and friendly place and I love that my mother in law is there.

Food is not great but improving. We were attracted to them because of the location relative to my home, near hospitals, has levels of care, beautiful apartment (independent living), great furnishings in common area, outings weekly/monthly.
