Atria Windsor Woods

This facility made me think of a large ranch when I first pulled into the parking lot. I did notice that there was ample parking for staff and visitors.

As I walked into Atria Windsor Woods I noticed immediately that the majority of residents were female and after walking through and talking with many of the fine residents I also found that the facility has the Red Hat Society members and meetings.

The facility offers several types of apartments, whether you want a studio or larger, it is offered. I also noticed that several of the residents have their pets residing with them.

I arrived between breakfast and lunch so didn’t get a chance to sample their food, but I noticed that the dinning room was a restaurant style dinning room so that the residents can pick and choose what they would like to eat. I did ask some of the residents how the food was and all replied it was delicious. Atria Windsor Woods has a large activities department and I noticed there is a calendar posted stating the different activities offered on the days of the month. I did not see any days left blank.

One of the amenities that I did notice was they offer a 24 hour café that is always staffed and offers beverages and light snacks. I did notice a number of residents gathered around the café.

If a resident does not want to sit inside or partake of any activities offered for that day, they can walk around the 10 acres that is like walking through a nature trail. A safety feature I noticed is all rooms and apartments offer a call system for emergencies

Altria Windsor Woods , not far from US Hwy 19, is easily accessible. The building is set back on a narrow road quite a bit from the main stretch. Once entering the building the first thing you come across is the “welcoming desk” . Taking note of the deep rich colors in this building, the décor is far from the “key west” color scheme. One you pass the front desk, you enter a hallway that seems to go on for a while. The pivoting point where you can only go right is announced by a dinning room that is delightfully decorated. Waitresses and waiters take your order and cocktails are served in what appears to be full service dinning. Each apartment is reasonable in size and clean in appearance. Each apartment seems to be fully functional. The two things about this building that I personally did not like was the fact that it seems to wind around and dead end and such that I myself got lost twice. Elevators to the second floor are scarce and not easily accessible. There is one elevator near the dinning area and one way far away. I had asked where a room was on the second floor and the staff could not give me clear indication of how to get there, and to me that was concerning. If you like the idea of living in an apartment like setting that has a full dinning experience daily and physically no challenges on being ambulatory … this ALF is perfect. I did see several staff workers working diligently and they were very courteous to their residents.
