Wickshire Senior Living

We were very impressed with this place. It was spacious, clean and smelled very good. The young man who gave us the tour was knowledgeable and able to answer all our questions.

We are very pleased with the staff and care here. It's been a short time but so far we have no complaints or suggestions.

They have been wonderful. We are very happy with Horizon Bay. It was the first place we looked at and nothing we looked at after could compare, so we moved here. I think they deserve a 5.

Wickshire Wilmette is definitely a warm and welcoming environment, but we were not able to move into the community due to the value. It was just to expensive.

We chose Wickshire Oklahoma City because of the affordability as well as we really liked the atmosphere and the staff members. The staff have been extremely friendly and helpful and take great care of my mother in law. The rooms are absolutely beautiful and very spacious. At the time we were looking they had a chef, but now they do not. They are having a hard time keeping a cook so they do not always go off the menu, what you see is not what you get. Starting in March, they are shutting down the facility to renovate it, so residents will have to move out. They are moving residents out free of charge to the Wickshire in Norman while these changes happen. Overall I would highly recommend this facility to others looking.

They have been very helpful and cooperative and responsive when I call and ask questions. Mom is definitely happy there. Well, as happy as my mom can be. lol

It's memory care so hard to really do activities. It's expensive but all inclusive so that makes it a good value. I would recommend Wickshire.

I would say that Wickshire is a good place with a few problems any place will have. "No place is perfect. But the place is very attractive & the staff is friendly! I like having my own space. There are great activities & the food is good most of the time. My main is with the number of residents who are confused & mentally impaired.

Things have been pretty good so far. Everybody seems very friendly, and they try to get our family member involved. She's safe and well looked after. Her big complaint is that the food is not served hot. I keep checking the weekly menu on the app for families, but they still have the menu from the beginning of August posted, so it's hard to keep track of whether what she's reporting to us is accurate or not. I would love to see that get updated. In looking for a place, everyone's needs/experiences are different. For our family, we've had a positive experience overall.

Overall I found the staff at Wickshire WIlmette easy to work with it was a nice change of pace and they did a good job for us. They would call us daily and were great with communication. They could manage her behavior well and we as the family did not have to interject much which was nice because that was the opposite at other facilities. If your loved one is a vegetarian, they do not have many options available. She was served a lot of salads and grilled cheese sandwiches.

I have been trying for a couple of weeks to get some information. I have a questions about my loved ones care, it is not crucial, but it is something I would like to know and I have not heard back from them. But other than that, we do not have any complaints. She is doing very well - we feel that she is in a good, safe and clean place. The facility is smaller and that gives it a more home-like atmosphere. I would recommend to other families looking.

My loved one loves the care services and the staff. They don't have a lot of activities and this is one of the main reasons that we wanted my loved one to go here. I would recommend this community for someone that needs assisted living. For someone with dementia I feel like there is another place with more activities where they would have better stimulation for their minds.

The Wickshire community is spotless it gets 10/10 stars on the cleanliness and that is saying a lot coming from a clean freak. They always seem to have different things going on, everything is nicely decorated.

We chose Wickshire Tamarac because it is a smaller community, it felt very home like and warm and comfortable, and all of the staff were very friendly. They have been great about helping my mom get acclimated. I think it is a better fit for people who are more independent but need a little assistance. I definitely would recommend them and already have to some friends.

I never give anyone a perfect score. But Mom seems like she settled in relatively quickly. I was surprised she adapted as well as she did. I think it's been a positive experience. The staff have always been friendly and helpful. Anytime I've had a question, they've done what they can to help answer it. Mom seems happy with the food and says there's a pretty good variety. They're keeping her busy with activities too.

Everyone was friendly, and it was a nice, small, intimate community. They continued to provide activities, even during Covid. Be careful before move-in- we moved in during Covid, based on a word of mouth assessment from the rehab facility my loved one was coming from. She ended up being at a higher level of care than what they had assessed, and was therefore at a higher level of care than Wickshire could provide. So we ended up having to move. I'm not sure whose fault that was, but it was a frustrating experience either way The place itself we were happy with. They treated us well, and everyone was friendly and helpful.

Our loved one is very happy at the community. He goes to an exercise class everyday and when the weather permits he loves to go outside.

Visited here on Sunday, it is not what we are looking for.

Dads quality of life has improved so much since moving here. He is so much happier he is doing the activities and socializing with the residents. The staff is wonderful here very friendly and nice they care about the residents. The community is always clean and looks nice. I would recommend them.
