Continuing Care Retirement Communities Communities in Boca Raton, FL

"There is another one that we put my father in, Vi at Lake Side, and it was very good. I had my father in there for several months, they had total rehab, the nurses were wonderful, and they had a full service restaurant where if the family stays, they could meet there. It was like going to a hotel. I noticed the cleanliness, the cheerfulness, the excellent care, and the excellent rehab. My father broke his pelvis, and even at 103, they got him up and walking, they took care of him, and it was wonderful. It also cost $8,000 a week. The room was beautiful, light, with big bathrooms, and it was all handicapped accessible. Everything about it was perfect. The care was exceptional. "

"It is not appropriate for my dad as it is a retirement community. They do have an assisted living wing, but it is very small -- they only allow 23 rooms. As far as the amenities and the upkeep, that was beautiful, but it was just more for independent living like an apartment complex. "

"I LOVE Willowbrooke Court of St Andrews. I have worked in Long Term Care since 1987 as an Occupational Therapist & therefore have been in & worked in over 50 ALF's & Nursing Homes in Florida. I researched several places & admitted my Dad there in April 2016. He received AWESOME care by ALL staff. The Charge Nurse, Carol was EXCELLENT! Carol would stop in daily to see me & give me a full report about my Dad. Carol always took the time to meet with me & to make sure my Dad was getting the best care possible. My Dad's daily nurse, Kathy LPN did above & beyond her job to meet my Dad's needs. She was always so loving to my Dad. My Dad adored her & her dog (Kathy brought in her dog with her to work & my Dad was a huge dog lover so he always loved seeing Edison, Kathy's dog.) I can't tell you how many times I cried at the facility (just seeing my sweet Dad declining due to his polycystic disease) & how Carol, Kathy, CNA's, Cafe Staff, SW, ADON & all the staff would come & give me a hug & comfort me. They truly are the BEST! The CNA were remarkable with their AMAZING hands on service they loving gave my Dad each day. My Dad at times could be very agitated & the CNA"s always treated him with love & respect. Prior to my Dad coming to Willowbrooke he had been living on 3-4 Ensures plus a 1/2 bowl of soup per day, At Willowbrooke he LOVED the food & ate every meal. During each meal he sat with other residents & staff & was completely engaged. Catherine in activities was AWESOME & got my Dad to participate in all activities. I was at the facility at least once a day, normally 2 times per day to see my Dad....I never smelled any type of order, the place was always cleaned & ALL residents were very well taken care of. If there was ever a call light on any CNA passing by would stop in to assist the resident. Residents were up & out of there rooms & engaged with staff &/or activities. The Staff is truly AMAZING! I HIGHLY HGIHLY recommend Willowbrooke. My Dad has since gone to be with The Lord. I love Willowbrooke so much even though my Dad had already passed away I made sure to go up during the State Survey so I could give an EXCELLENT report to State & share how awesome, loving & amazing Willowbrooke Staff is. If any of my loved ones every need a nursing home, without a doubt I would pick Willowbrooke Court at St. Andrews! "

"We toured St. Andrews, and my daughter liked that one the best. I got a very good impression from the staff. They gave me all the information and were willing to work with me. It was very nice and had nice grounds. We had lunch there, and it was quite nice."

"I visited Edgewater. The people were very friendly and mobile. It like a high rise becuase it was a 10-story building and had more of a resort feel. Everything looked sharp. It was in a nice area. I went there unannounced, but when I walked in the lobby, people met me. The rooms were a little bit more modern and brand new."

"We moved in two months ago after visiting 10 other communities in a 10 mile radius of Boynton Beach. We are living in a Garden Home - a spacious facility having 1500 sq. ft. under air plus an attached garage, California style walk-in closets and some of the best kept grounds in the area. The staff is very dedicated to meeting all ones needs. There are two calendars with activities for the month. The second calendar is dedicated to physical activities provided for by a profession in house instructor. The complex offers a full lineup of lectures, entertainment, movies, etc. Travel to external events are scheduled and transportation to and from the theaters are offered. On campus healthcare services are offered in a separate dedicated facility. "
