Waltonwood Senior Living

It was pretty nice but more expensive than some others we looked at.

Very nice, cheery. There were a few residents sleeping in their wheelchairs near the front desk, much like I would expect in a nursing home. Leasing agent was knowledgable and friendly; really wanted to get to know about my dad.

Waltonwood is good but it's very expensive. It was too expensive for my mother's budget but it is very nice. The one on Cherry Hill is nicer than the Canton Center one - it's newer and more modern.

Cost for 2:$3,595. One year lease. Plus you pay gas, electric, cable & phone. Includes 2 meals/day. Respite available. Housekeeping & Laundry services by ?. On call physician, podiatrist and portable dentistry. Physical therapy room and therapy pool bed and bath linens provided, daily bed making.

good location

They have nurses on staff. (tight for his budget)

enthusiastic and friendly residents and nice rooms.

The Director was friendly but showy; rushed through visit. Didn't seem especially interested in our case. Liked the fact that it was close to mall and that they claim they regularly take residents to mall and restaurants - both things mom still loves to do. Just not sure how often she would be on "the attendance list" to do these things as she doesn's speak up or advocate for herself. Not very impressed with staff who didn't help her open tube spa. They were also sitting together at unit desk while residents were off in another section seated togeter on couches in front of TV. None the less it looked and smelled clean and had lots of nice open space. Something I personally liked. (Don't like small, austrophic places.) I would feel comfortable visiting there as it seemed there were places within that we could "travel" to for a private visit other than resident room. Didn't like the fact they don't allow hi-lo bed with rails - something I would like to bring from mom's home.

Fabulous interior -very upscale. But like Atria, it's adjacent to the mall and high traffic areas. There are separate units for independent and assisted living - not sure I was comfortable with that. Director was delightful!

Nice. Apts can be very large.

laundry in rooms and liked rooms- liked bella villa atmosphere better- had to pay for heat and electric and cable yourself. Pool was a plus

seems nice but group home might be better for him. he might be more comfortable knowing everyone more ike home

We all liked it. Colorfull, well-maintained, active.

[name omitted]'s mother-in-law at another Waltonwood and likes it

The community is neat and clean and the staff is very friendly. The food can be really good but their staffing could be better. They do have activities available for the residence. I would recommend this community to others based on my experience.

We only went there for a tour and didn't know any people that lived there. We didn't get much of a chance to speak with any of the staff other than the girl who showed us around but it was clean and seemed nice enough. It seemed like a place to consider.

The grounds and interior are well taken care of however the staff does not give off a "friendly" vibe. We were rushed thru our tour a left alone in the conference room after we finished. We were told you have our number if you have any questions and then she was gone; never did she ask for Mom's name or our contact numbers. It did not leave me with a good feeling. How would Mom feel living there?

The staff are friendly, but there are areas of improvement

Comments: we have had parents at all three communities. The sales staff promise items or services that the actual staff cannot deliver. We have been billed for items and services that were not delivered without a lot of back and forth and excuses.

They are at times slow to make repairs. However, compared to all of the other places we saw and read about they were priced about the same and we definitely think Waltonwood is better than the rest."
