Mom was at Wellsprings for almost 2years the staff was awesome caring loving and attenative. It was a wonderful experience having mom there. We could rest knowing mom was taken care by the best. It’s more like friends living together under one roof. The smaller facility was a good thing all the staff knew each patient and their needs and worked as a team to help us take care of mother. I feel that Susan and her staff have made it a calling to love and take care of the people that live there here. And personally I have come to know the staff and depend on them. I feel like it was her home and we are all family now

I visited this facility

We went to tour Wellsprings Residence. The person who assisted us was very nice. She showed us around. The room was nice; the whole place was very nice. It had a more homely feel. It was very comfortable and warm there. They're out in the woods, so it's a park-like setting. The only thing why we didn't consider it more was because of the sliding scale. If my mother-in-law's care gets more, then her cost goes up to $7000 a month. So that was the reason why we didn't choose it. Other than that, we were very impressed. It was neat and clean. The carpets were a bit stained, so they need to have a carpet cleaner come in and clean the carpet. But the people looked well taken care of, and it was a very homey, warm place. They would go on field trips, they had a puzzle room, and they had a backyard, and you could take them out into the yard. They have a doctor that would do an in-house visit. The dining area was very nice. The staff was very friendly, too.

My brother has moved into Wellsprings Residence. They are very kind people. It's clean. They feed him and they take very good care of him. He loved it. He loved what he had. It's a very clean place. It's safe. He said he likes the food; he doesn't have any complaints about it. I see somebody come in and play the piano and they sing spiritual songs. They have a game room where they put puzzles together. I see they got a lot of books. He's been taken care of very well. His room is very clean and very well kept. It is nice. It has a walk-in bathroom. That's why we went there, that's what he needed, his own clean room.

My mother-in-law has been in Wellsprings Residence for two months now. I like the community because it's all-inclusive. The people who need memory care, if they're not in a bad state, they allow the community to be together, which has helped my mother-in-law. She is not in total memory care because she is not that far along yet, and so with the other people, she can have friends. They sing together, they do scripture together, and they watch TV together. It's wonderful; it's a good community. The room is very comfortable. You can take anything that she likes. There is a nice place for clothes. Everything is nice. The food is just wonderful, it's set up like a restaurant, and it's good. They have a variety of rooms. Everything is there. They have a library, a game room, and gazebos. My mother-in-law likes the meals, and her son likes the meals. I've only been there for two activities, and I loved it because my mother-in-law loved it. They're consistent every day with the schedule. The staff makes sure that everybody follows the schedule and that they're happy. All the residents that I've seen are very happy; I know my mother-in-law is happy.

My dear aunt was a resident of Wellsprings until her last days and my family labored and fought over where to place her as it was getting so difficult for her to care for herself. She stayed at Wellsprings for over two years and it was the best decision we made when it came to her care. They treat their residents like family and are very attentive to them. The owners and staff kept my family informed of everything related to my aunt and helped us navigate some of the complex issues you face when managing the care of an older relative. The campus is absolutely beautiful and gives you every feel of the home. All of my family members said they would chose Wellsprings over the other ALFs in the area. Thanks you so much Susan, Reggie, Amanda, and all of the staff for everything you do for our aging community! You are a true blessing!

I would rate this poor to average. They don't have enough staff to give the residents extra attention they deserve and the food is terrible. I have been many times with my friend whose mother is there. They make no effort to make their meal time nice, I have walked in many times with her during the time they are eating so we can see her mother. My friend tells me after dinner they are short staffed at night. Rooms are nothing special. Carpets always looked stained. It just doesn't appear they put much money in this place. Most of the staff seems friendly.

Provider Response

Hi KSmith! We are sincerely sorry for your impression on our services at Wellsprings. As a friend of a resident’s family member, you may not be privy to the services we provide and the rationale of some of our process, but l hope you will take more time to understand. To note, the meal times are resident-focused, so their other needs may be met, including medication management, personal hygiene, and their personal sleep practices. Although there are scheduled meal times, we allow our residents to come in a dine at their leisure from a menu of foods that are directly prepared at Wellsprings, using fresh produce and meats, as well as desserts made from scratch. We hold specialized events where family and even members from the community enjoy the dining experience, such as our annual Dinner under the Stars event. In relation to our staffing, we have one of the highest staff-to-resident ratios in the region and pride ourselves in only hiring licensed CNAs to provide care for our residents. We exceed the requirements for staffing set by the Agency for Healthcare Administration and continue to establish a work climate that every staff member is a caregiver for our residents. We hope that you keep visiting your friend’s mother and engage us directly with any concerns! Best Regards from the Wellsprings Residence!

I put my husband in Wellsprings Residence and took him out in a week. It's terrible. They don't have enough CNRs to take care of 18 to 20 residents. There's just not enough help and the place was not what I call really clean. The carpeting was dirty. I had his room painted and put up draperies. They had a dresser there that I used. The bathroom was very small. They hadn't given him a shower, but they had great food, they had activities, they gave the meds at night and in the morning, and they had a library. The outside needs washing. There were cobwebs hanging from the outside in the gutter areas. The porch had couches and chairs and they were all mildewed and falling apart. That is a place for someone that really doesn't care, but the activities were good and I had fun.

Provider Response

LH, We at Wellsprings Residence are sincerely sorry and surprised at your review of our community, especially with such a short time we had with your sweet husband. You gave us the impression that you were experiencing other personal anxieties about him being in a residential care setting, thus the reason for your speedy departure. Our staff pride themselves in providing very compassionate and comprehensive care to all of our residents and we are unique, as we hire only CNAs for care-giving, while our competitors are moving to Resident Assistants to minimize costs. We also maintain a higher ratio of care-givers to residents than the AHCA requirements, even as you personally decided to keep your contracted health aide for your husband during his brief stay with us. We invite any potential residents and their families to visit the best kept secret in Apopka, so you can see how Wellsprings Residence provides a very comforting and home-like environment to our aging population in Central Florida. You will see nothing less than a compassionate and safe environment for your loved one with a professional staff that actually care! LH, as during your hasty departure, we wish you and your husband nothing but love and peace and welcome you if you ever decide to return!!!

I went to see Wellsprings Residence, and it looked more like a nursing home, so I knew for my mother that would not suite me. They had a library and activities going on for the residents. They have jigsaw puzzle room and a library. They have a nice sized porch area and a nice common room.

Wellsprings Residence was small, intimate, and more like a family. The food was prepared fresh daily. The staff knew everyone by name. Also, they have cards, board games, movies, and transportation to Wal-Mart.

My mother has blossomed since she joined the Wellsprings Residence Family. Making the decision to move into assisted living from mom's independent environment was a bit difficult for all of us, but we now wish we would have made the choice much sooner. The friends, staff, activities, meals, accommodations – all 5 stars! So glad we found Wellsprings.

Wellspring is a beautiful 16 room "HOME" on a spacious 15 acres. It is a one of a kind residence like no other assisted living facility I have visited. The owners of this assisted living home have put their heart and soul in developing a facility that seniors could live out their lives in good health, comfort and happiness. My mother-in-law loves her new home and looks forward to everyday of this new chapter in her '100' years of life. Wellsprings Residence is a diamond in the rough that anyone would love to call "HOME".
