Watercrest at Katy

Watercrest at Katy was great. Everything looked clean and neat. The staff was great. He explained everything, talked about everything that we'd seen, and what were the plans. The kitchen was spotless. They had a game room where you can play different games, card games, and board games. They had a pool table.

My parents moved into Watercrest at Katy. They have similar services, the facility is very nice, and the cost is much lower than most of the other places we looked at. The rooms are very nice, clean, and spacious. And the staff is very friendly and very caring. We've only been here a few days. We had one meal when we visited. Very nice. The food was about the same as the other places that we ate at. So, I wouldn't say spectacular, but it wasn't any different basically, than all the other places we ate at. They've got basic activities and field trips, and they have resident gardens. They have a nice swimming pool, workout centers, salon, and all the amenities that we're looking for. Very friendly atmosphere. The residents are very nice. Everyone's very helpful.

My aunt is in Watercrest at Katy. They're great and they're madly in love with my aunt. They're very helpful and very sweet. It's just that she's sharing a two-bedroom with her sister who had a fall and requires more care, and has now been moved to the nursing home. The food was really good when they first moved there, and then they changed who does it, and now they get a lot of frozen food just heated up in the oven. I don't think the food is that great anymore. I mean, it's adequate, but I definitely won't give the food more than a rating of three. They have bingo, exercise classes, there's a bunch of people that play puzzles and cards every night. There's a ton of stuff going on there.

Having lived here with my dear wife from Oct. 2020, and since we're about to climb out of a long and historic icy blast, I thought that it's time for another review on Watercrest at Katy to add another dimension of our experiences at this community. After all, the best time to evaluate a facility is when going through a crisis such as this unprecedented winter storm. Since the start of the freeze on Sunday night, we have not lost power or water here for even a second. All senior residents have been kept toasty warm - what an unspeakable blessing in light of so many power outages and frozen water pipes all around us in Katy and greater Houston area! Understandably, the staff of Watercrest did not make it to work on Monday due to icy slippery roads. But our director Doug with a skeleton crew of two maintenance men showed up bright and early to spread salt crystals on walkways so that folks with dogs could venture out and do their business. Meals were suspended for one day. The next day a few more brave staffs came to serve meals. Again, the director himself donned apron and served meals in the Dining Hall. Thursday, we had full staff, and activities are slowly returning to normal. We cannot say enough about Watercrest at Katy. What an amazing place with amazing staff! God bless them all.

My grandmother is in Watercrest at Katy. It's been good. She is basically in independent living, so they provide some minor care. They take the meals to them, but she doesn't need full time nursing or anything like that. The staff is very good. They're professional, and they're easy to work with. They play bingo, they have crafts, they have movie nights, they bring people in for music, they have water aerobic classes, they have a pool, they have a library, and they have pool tables. I mean they have all kinds of stuff. There are some things the staff could do a little better, but in general it's good. My grandmother is not 100% with the food, but their facility is very nice.

Watercrest at Katy is fantastic. It's more of an independent living facility, but they have some supports built in. The people are super nice and very interactive. There are hundreds of people who live there, and they knew people by name. They knew what was going on, and they knew the names of their family members. It's very clean, very nice, and beautifully appointed. My mother-in-law's apartment has granite countertops in the kitchen and hardwood floors. You can add on medicine checks and a daily check, and they have a button that she wears that she can push. There's somebody there 24/7 that monitors her in case she has an emergency. They have food service. We really love it. The staff is warm and friendly. The food looked wonderful, and it's set up like a restaurant. It's modern and very pretty. They have over a hundred groups you can join. Any interest a person has, you're going to find things there to help them.
