I have friends who live there at Westminster Bradenton Courtyard. I had a great time. I got introduced to a lot of people. I did several activities. I was there for their Christmas party and New Year's Eve party. I got to meet many of the residents, and that was very nice. Everybody seemed nice. It's a continuing care retirement community. You start at independent living and maybe stay there, but if necessary, you could be moved to other apartments for more assistance, or you can get assistance at your own place, depending on what the issues are. The independent living quarters that I saw were about a thousand square feet, and that was a two-bedroom apartment. I did get to see another building because my friend actually has a brother in another building requiring a little more assistance. That was a nicer facility, but I sort of have an issue with walking through a long hallway to get to my room. The other ones had a receptionist, so it didn't seem quite as independent, whereas the one that my friends live in, you just walk right into your own apartment. No long hallway, just an outside balcony. It was set up differently. It had activities, a swimming pool, and a fitness center. I stayed with my friends for those two weeks. The three buildings are reasonably close to each other, probably a 10-to-12-minute walk. I did it quite a bit with my dog. They had a little dog park as well. That's where I'm intending to go. Everybody I met was wonderful. I enjoyed the activities. You have an upfront entrance fee, and if you run out of money, they promise not to kick you out.

Bradenton - Westminster Manor Independent Living has assisted living and long-term care. It was beautiful. The apartment was very roomy, had lots of storage, and was very nice. They had laundry service, or you could do your own laundry. They had two dining areas. The grounds were nice. They had a nice little hiking trail around the building. The staff was very knowledgeable and very nice. She showed us a larger apartment and then a smaller one. She answered any questions that we had. We didn't see the food, but the dining area itself was very nice. They had scheduled dinners and an alternate menu if you didn't want anything that was on the main menu. They had places where you could sing along. They had movies, bingo, and games. They'll take you if you need to go to a doctor or shopping or anywhere.

My husband and I have lived here for 13 years. We chose to live in a Manor Park Home, which is across the street in the Manor section of Bradenton Tropical Palms Mobile Home Park. We walk or drive over to the main building and campus for our wonderful chef prepared meals; for all meetings, fitness center, library, Bible Study, etc. Every resident is so friendly and like family to us. Our staff members are the best! All areas of living are available to us as we age….. independent, assisted living, nursing care at our sister community . We are so thankful the Lord led us here from out-of-state.

Westminster Point Pleasant had a very nice water view. The upkeep was excellent. The staff during the tour was very good, helpful, and friendly. They had activities, but I didn't go into detail with them. The facility was very nice and very well-appointed. The negative thing I found out about it is the rooms are a lot smaller than the other place, but they had a better view because they looked out on the river.

Okay, if it takes upwards of two weeks for the staff to be fully aware of a new patient's needs, couldn't someone just say so? Like on day one? My husband has been languishing for 8 days in this facility, while his daughters and I have been frantically and futilely attempting to get him the care he needs. "He's on the wrong floor." "We don't see the doctor's notes from the hospital anyway." "I wasn't here, so how should I know?" "Oh, there was a mistake about who was supposed to be his aide." Just a few responses before we heard the truth: They still don't know why he is there! Day after tomorrow a "care plan" will be devised. Meeting at 2p.m. Egregious is the word. (there are more words, believe me) The mostly excellent staff is reduced to mouthing excuses.... how is this an acceptable policy? This isn't a used car lot -- that's my husband you've got in your care and he is suffering and I am really looking foward to that meeting. (not that we're expecting much - who will listen?)

Housekeeping could be better, a lot better, but there's not enough staff, that's obvious! Calls for assistence ignored. Malfunctioning bed got me hung up and spasming - was treated as a dementia patient, clothes flipped up, completely exposed, forced into diaper for no need, given a shot without my consent, dragged from my armpits up the bed and then left there for over 4 hours. Did anyone realize I had multiple fractured ribs from a recent lung surgery? I tried to tell them I'd just had chest tubes removed, but I wasn't getting enough air. I am still experiencing acute rib pain more than a year later. I moaned in pain while stuck in a bed rail, and I was treated like a sack full of unfeeling nothingness, and it took a long time to even get that! If anyone knew why I was there, and what my limitations were, I'd like to believe I would have received better treatment. That's what I keep telling my nightmares, anyway.

I went to Bradenton - Westminster Manor. It was very, very homey. The staff was extremely friendly, and they were very, very helpful in answering questions. I visited a one-bedroom apartment. We saw the library. We just toured the first floor, some of the rooms on the second floor, and the dining room. It was very, very clean. I would recommend it to anyone. They told us about different trips, and restaurant visits that they provide. They have a beautiful pool outside.

We went to Westminster Point Pleasant. The salesperson was amazing. She was super nice and very helpful. There was one apartment that they were redoing that was kind of out of our budget, but it was going to be beautiful. The one that we looked at, we didn't see the value in it compared to what we saw at the other facilities, but everybody was super nice. The facility is a little dated. It was beautiful, I just think for the value, we took it off the list because it was so expensive. The apartment only had a two-burner stove and microwave, and they only provided one meal. It just started getting really expensive at the end of our conversation. I know they have a gym and a pool, but we didn't get a tour of that.

Our tour at Bradenton - Westminster Manor was really helpful. The staff was personable. It was very homey. It's more of a faith-based facility, which is something that my mom was looking for. It was a little bit older building, but they put a lot of attention to detail and made sure that the facility was very updated on the inside. The one-bedroom is a nice size. They were very accommodating to us. We didn't eat there, so I don't know what the food was like. They had a lot of amenities similar to the other facility in the sense that they had a library, a game room, an activity room, and a chapel, and that kind of thing. It looked like they had a nice set of amenities and such. The one-bedroom apartment size was good. It was a very homey community, and they seemed to have a good value for their money.

My wife and I have been Independent Residents of Westminster Manor for 9 years and we have always felt blessed that we had the opportunity to live in a community with a staff that has always gone beyond their job description to help the residents out. We are so fortunate to have a dining staff that prepares three meals a day for the residents living in the Manor building and several really good options for the Independent Residents who do not have the three meal plan. For all residents there are two main meals served at lunch and dinner, each with two or three different entrees with tasty salads, vegetables and desserts. One major factor that convinces us we made the right choice was the way Bradenton Manor handled the COVID-19 crisis. Initially there were restrictions placed on visitors to our Assisted Living and Nursing Center residents which, while were inconvenient, proved to be very effective. We had no COVID-19 infections with the residents during the initial period in 2020 and early 2021. With surge in the Delta Variant COVID there now are strong recommendations for adhering to the CDC Guidelines. But now that nearly 95% of our residents have been vaccinated some of those restrictions have been eased or left up to the discretion of each resident. Early in 2021 Bradenton Manor arranged for a local pharmacy to come with a team and vaccinate the entire community all in one day and the follow up shot another day with the Phizer Vaccine. It was an amazing operation. There isn't room here to expand on all the positive feelings we have living here. Bradenton Manor's moto is "We're Family not Fancy" and that is exactly what we were looking for in a place where we will spend the remainder of our years with the friends we have made here.

Westminster Point Pleasant is a great spot. It's beautiful. They've got good people working there and my wife lives in a five-star unit. They have different buildings on their campus, some are with nurses and things like that, while she is in a rehab situation right now with some skilled nursing. It's well run and everybody is very loving, caring, and makes you feel good. The intake lady, Maj, is a wonderful woman. She's only been there three months, but she is a great girl. She is very caring, very helpful, listens to you, then answers your questions, and acts on them. My wife also thought the food was very good and when she was at a point where she couldn't eat, I ate it and for me, it was OK, definitely better than what I've ever had in a hospital. Then they have a therapist that goes around and works with each person in their room and she likes that too. So, I was hoping that my wife could stay there. She's on Medicare right now and she may only be there for another week or two since she's feeling a little bit better now.

I am a long-time resident of Westminster Manor and am happier today than I was 12 years ago when I moved in...and I was very happy then. I cannot say enough good things about the Manor. My husband and I are in a villa, therefore independent residents but we know when the time comes for further care, it is there. No moving, just shifting to another area/room in the facility. The staff is amazing. They are professional, competent, caring and friendly. The meals are delicious, beautiful and varied. The dining staff takes great pains to satisfy the needs of all of us...and that's a real challenge. We rarely "eat out" because the food is so good at the Manor. We have more fun, educational, creative activities than you can imagine and more than a person could possibly do all of! The facilities are kept clean and in good maintenance condition. The relationship we have with the staff is amazing...very much like family. We have recommended that our friends consider and come to Westminster Manor and will continue to do so. Is it perfect? Of course not...it is made up of human beings, but it would be hard to find a better place for this time of life. As I said, we are extremely happy and would encourage anyone looking for a retirement community to check out the Manor!

My mother has been living in Westminster Manor. She's been there for seven years now. It's a wonderful facility. She's been in independent living all this time. It's excellent. It is a beautiful campus. It has a main building that has independent living, assisted living, and a nursing facility. It also has an apartment building right next door that's all independent living. It also has mobile homes across the street for people who are in independent living, and there are houses across the street. It has all the types of living that you could want, whether it's an apartment, a mobile home, or an actual house. The staff is great. Everybody is professional and personable. We really haven't had any problems in the whole seven years that she's lived there. I have tried the food, but I haven't eaten there frequently. The dining area is very nice, but I'm always hearing from the residents that there are some days the food is fine, and some days it's not so great. They just aren't too thrilled with the food, but I don't know if it's their taste buds or if it's the actual food. She actually goes to the exercise classes. They have classes to help people to stay fit, balanced, and that sort of thing. They also have a full-sized pool and pool classes. If people just want to go to swim, you can just go in the pool. They also have things like bingo, and they have performers. Normally when there's no COVID, they have excursions to performances, to play golf, or whatever you want to do. There are a lot of activities for the residents. It's almost perfect, but nothing for me is ever perfect. She's been very happy there, and so have we. We've had good experiences too. The staff is good with overall support. If there have been any problems with anybody's health or whatever, they have a nurse who's like an on-site social worker. Eighty to ninety percent of the people living there don't have anybody locally. She's very good about taking care of the people and making sure that they have the services they need. It is nice for somebody who may not have family in the area.

Westminster Manor is a very friendly place. They have a lot of activities for my sister and she is very happy there. She loves her apartment and the food is very good. I haven't had a negative problem yet. She's been just very content. Her room is a very nice size. It's got a kitchen, a dining area, a living room, a bathroom, a big bedroom, and a walk-through closet. The other closet has plenty of storage units and she's got a really pretty view from her room. The facility is a big complex. There's a pool, shuffleboard, and a little dog park. The next building is where the main building is, the offices, and the assisted living. They have a little country store there. So, if they're looking for things and they can't get out, they can ask the staff and they will stock them there so they can get them there rather than having to go to stores. The staff that I have dealt with has been very helpful and very friendly. One of the things that I like about them is they check the residents. Everybody is equipped with an emergency pull cord in the bathroom, but there's also a button that every resident has to hit before 11:30 in the morning as a check-in. If they don't do that, then they're going to check on them whether they're independent care or not, which is a huge plus. Normally, if she wants to have something repaired, she can call the maintenance crew and they come right away and do it, but right now, they're a little involved with this plumbing project that they have unless it's an emergency. So, it's a little slower than it normally would be, but for everything else, they've been very accommodating. She was very much against even moving from where she was, and now she says how happy she is that she moved. They have a medical center too, and if they don't use that medical center and you need transportation, they can take you to the doctors. They do field trips and shopping trips that takes everybody to the mall. So, a lot is going on and I think their price is very reasonable given those activities, and compared to some of the other places we looked at, I think that they're comparable in what they offer in their care and their attention to the residents, and it's not a brand new facility. It's been there for a long time.

I am extremely upset with this facility.The staff on the 3rd floor are at 60%.I spent 2 weeks doing most of their work.Granted, they were doing other important things like checking their phones.Once this week my mom pressed the call button and as I walked outside the door to see where the light was,I saw the girl on staff look at the light then saw me and walked away.when I followed her she put her arms on the front desk and closed her eyes for a nap.I stood there for a moment.The nurse at the desk didnt look up until I said excuse me.I asked are you doing anything? The nurse snapped yes ,I am working on files here annoyed.I said my moms call lights been on for 5 min.she says it’s only been on for 2! 2 or 5 what’s the difference? And you’re standing here sleeping! They are obviously understaffed and overworked.I was asking if they were doing anything because I wanted to make sure I wasn’t interrupting something important.They are snappy.I told them to take my mother off of Tremodyle as it was making her seem like she has dimentia and she was not in pain.They said OK then the next day I was sitting with mom and in walks the aide saying here’s tour Tremadyle.I said no, and she says but it’s scheduled.Off to the front desk I went.The head nurse hadn’t checked the changes the last nurse made. Many times I came to visit left and came back to find mom naked from the waste down or pinched up in a chair kinked over asleep without her oxygen.This is their $8500 care?I could tell you more,but I think you can get the idea.I don’t believe anywhere would ever be perfect,but seeing 5 stars is just not sitting well with me.This is notNOT a perfect place.It’s pretty there,but don’t let them sell you on just the view.

We thought Westminster Manor-Bradenton was the nicest apartment for my mother-in-law so we moved her there. It was newly refurbished with soft, uplifting colors. It has big spaces and spacious windows that look out at the palm trees. We like the quality of the staff, the appearance of the room, and the ability to get furniture into the room to make her feel at home. The staff has been very kind and very helpful to her too. We're very pleased with the interaction between them and my mother-in-law. The food is very good in assisted living where she's at. Yesterday, she went to a church service and she hasn't done that in months. Her room is very nice, it's redone with a fresh floor and walls. It has a nice small kitchen area and a very nice brand-new bathroom that's refurbished.

Westminster Manor of Bradenton looked like a very nice community. It seemed to be very clean, very organized, and staffed correctly. The staff seems very knowledgeable and kind. They weren't able to show me a lot of the amenities due to the COVID thing. I wasn't really allowed to go further beyond the opening, but I saw a little bit of the outside area and it looked OK, and the building looked well-maintained.

Westminster Shores was pretty and clean. The person who accommodated me was very nice; however, the community was too big. Also when she told me how they do the pricing, you have to put down a huge chunk of money and you have to put down so much every month after that. I didn't think I wanted to go that route for my mother. My mother doesn't like crowds; she doesn't like a lot of people. We saw the Courtyard floor plan, the one and that would have worked for her; however, it was very small and it was on the second floor. My mother's live-in boyfriend can't go up in the elevator, so that would not work. They had activities but you had to get on a bus and go over to the main building. Every time they wanted something, including their meals, they had to get on the bus and go over the main building.

Bradenton Westminster Manor was a very nice facility. The staff was friendly. It's well kept up. They had lots of amenities, an exercise room, a library, computers, and a pool and classes. However, it's not affordable for my brother-in-law. We looked at studio apartments. They had independent living, but they offer total care as well.

Westminster is right at the top of my list. It's a luxurious facility with views of the Bradenton River that are drop-dead beautiful. It is gorgeous. The view is really the seller. The food at the brunch was excellent. It's a huge complex and they had two pages of things to do for physical activities and movies. The rooms had big picture windows looking out on the bay. The one-bedroom unit didn't have an oven which is kind odd but they had a two burner stovetop and a refrigerator. They also had plenty of closets.

Mom lived in the Manor for 25 days. She lived in assisted living where I was assured she'd have help with her ADLs. I stayed with her the first week so I saw first hand what happened. Once she was moved in, no one met with her to give her an orientation or even to show her where to go for meals. When I asked for one, I was told by the Nurse Director she was too busy and someone else would come. No one did. We didn't eat there the first two days because we didn't know where or when to go to meals. No caregiver came to her room to help her dress. In the 25 days she was there she wasn't helped to bath once. In 25 days she went to one activity because they didn't have an activity director, so there were few activities and no one came to tell mom about them. She sat in her room alone. After I left, she called me on the phone constantly worrying she'd miss meals because no one could be bothered to help her learn the new schedule of when they were. After she'd been there 20 days the Nurse Director told me she wasn't adjusting to the new environment and told me I had to move her out immediately and provide a private caregiver until I did. Mom did not 'adjust' because 1) they didn't give her time to adjust and 2) no one made any effort to help her. For whatever reason, the Nurse Director didn't want a resident that actually needed more than 10-20 minutes help a day (she told me no one in assisted living needed more than that. If you need more, you need to be in memory care). The Manor is absolutely lovely and the food is so good I wish I could eat it everyday. But if your loved one needs assisted living, this place doesn't provide it.

It's going to be two years since I moved in to Bradenton - Westminster Manor. The parking is so complicated and so compact. It's very difficult to maneuver a larger car into a parking place or exit. They have an exit gate and if a bus blocks the gate, you can't get out. The meals are good. I've been able to maintain my status quo as far as weight is concerned. They have a nice exercise room, a nurse that gives my B12 shots, and three meals a day. They have a good menu every day, but I can be very independent from the menus downstairs. My room is adequate. I have a large bedroom, a large dining room and a kitchenette. It's on the second floor and I overlook a nice view of the pool and the trees. It's a very beautiful picture looking out the window. They have two elevators which is very adequate for a five-storey building. I like the staff very much. They're very cooperative and even the CEO here listens to you and follows through. They're right on top of things here. They have an activities organizer and she's very on top of things. There are a lot of things and entertainment that comes here, movies, and bingo. There are lot of activities here that people can get involved in. They have aquatics, a pool, a Jacuzzi, and physical therapist. What's nice is if something unforeseen happened to me that I needed 24/7 care, they have a facility right here that they can transfer you to. You don't have to look for a nursing home.

My mother was a patient here for approximately 2 months, I visited her just about every day she was there. She was in the back building for rehabilitation. This section is also the skilled nursing location. If I was given adequate time by the hospital before my mother's discharge to choose a proper rehab facility this place would not even make my top 50. I will NEVER under any circumstances allow my mother or anyone I care for to stay even 1 day at this place. I dreaded even having to go back to pick up her medical records. After her discharge I never wanted to step foot in there again. Our family began to reference the facility as "The Prison". If you care about your loved one at all DO NOT send them to this facility for rehab or skilled nursing. Other than the fact that my mother's room smelled of mold & mildew the rooms and food are adequate but the care is TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE, INADEQUATE, UNCOMPASSIONATE & UNSYMPATHETIC. My mother was awating brain surgery because of Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus. She fell many times while here because they never put an alarm on her. Even after several falls, no alarm was ever placed. As a result of the falls she suffered from several compression fractures of vertebrae for which she later had to have surgery. Because of her illness she began to develop urinary & bowel incontinence. They let her sit in fecal matter for various periods of time. Once, after returning from an offsite doctor visit they let her sit in fecies for several (3-4) hours. Another time they let her sit in a wheelchair bottomless without a cover for 2 hours before I got there because they could not find briefs her size. I ended up going to purchase briefs in order to get her what she needed so obviously patient dignity is of NO concern. Many complaints, concerns and requests by her family about medical issues were never addressed or noted in her chart. Nurses and CNA's were rude and annoyed when questions were asked about treatment. Multiple requests needed to be made to get anything done wether it be about medical issues, comfort, diet or anything else. Every time I was there nursing home patients were yelling and/or crying because they needed something or were just lonely. On several occasions myself or my family including my minor children tried to comfort patients. People were often rough in handling my mother causing bruising and pain especially after she became incontinent because it irritated them having to deal with the issue. My mother's illness caused severe cognitive decline which was never respected or given any compassion. Though my mother was in no condition for activities that department severely lacked too. Fingernail painting, bingo or they would push patients in wheelchairs to a small crowded unorganized room to watch a movie. The only good thing about Westminster Manor is Paul in the Physical Therapy department. Paul cared about the patients and was the one I had to go to if I wanted something done. I could go on and on about how terrible this place is. Please believe me and look for a different facility. Do not send a loved one or anyone to this horrible place.

Westminster Manor had villas that are not gated. I would recommend them to anybody. My friends live in one, which they purchased and renovated to fit their needs. They have a high rise and a health care center. They care for the residents until they pass away. I've been to their dining room and the service was very good. We looked at a place in their high rise. The reason we didn't choose it was because we didn't want a high rise. We wanted a ground level where we could just walk in and out our door and look out the window and see people walk past, which you can't do in the high rise. The facility is clean, and they clean their houses for them. The dining room and the other areas near the dining room are always very clean.

The experience with Westminster was very positive. They were very caring, and the residents seemed very pleased and happy with them. My friend that’s staying there is doing very well and likes it very much. She has a very nice, spacious, private room. They are accommodating in getting the kind of furniture a person asks for. The chair wasn’t quite comfortable, so they asked for a recliner. I would absolutely recommend them.

Westminster Shores is very nice. What stands out is the friendliness of the people. They have a large dining room on the first floor and the food is very good. They’ve got individual tables and they give you a choice of meals. I’ve got a 2-bedroom, 2 bath unit, and it’s about 600 sq. ft. They also have smaller units as well as bigger units.

Westminster Manor had very good food, excellent staff, and a very pleasant great room. They have several dining rooms, which were very nice, and a garden. The people were very friendly. I’m going to move there.

Westminster had a gorgeous water view since it's located more downtown near a lot of activities in Bradenton Riverwalk. It’s close to the main library, a new playhouse, and a couple of streets with cafes. It’s more expensive, but it’s the nicest, and the apartments are nice and include kitchenettes and one or two bedrooms. They have activities and a card group.

What impressed me about Westminster Shores was the quality of care. The facility itself was unlike any others I've seen; top-quality all the way around. It's a medical facility, and the rooms had televisions, reclining chairs, electric lift chairs, and large closet for your clothes. It's a very nice facility. The food was all top-notch; nothing that looked like institution food. It was all prepared right there in the dining facility by the chef, very well-presented. The quality and the variety were top-of-the-line. My father had been here for three months.

I’ve been at Westminster Manor and I would pick to go there again. The physical therapy is great. The help is good; they answer the call button much faster. It’s upbeat; it’s nice and very clean. The menus and the food were great; they change it around. For the food and care, I’d pick Westminster Manor first.

Rude staff. Management seems to not have a clue. Smells like mold and dead rats. Will not retire here. Very expense for very little luxuries.

Westminster Shores was a beautiful property with beautiful views. They have villas as well as medium-sized high-rise buildings including new ones being built. The people and the management were good. The room we stayed in was a very spacious two-bedroom villa. The amenities were very good, too.

Westminster Manor was very nice. The setting was wonderful, and the place was very attractive. The staff seemed to be very nice. You have to share a room, though, if you go to the nursing home part, and I was not willing to do that.

The rooms at Westminster was very nice. My mother loved it there. Someone comes in once a week and cleans her room, and they take care of everything. She talks with her neighbors, and they get along really well. During dinner, they would pick her up and take her over to the Towers and then bring her back to her apartment. I went to the Towers a couple of times where we played bingo, but she did not like it because the rooms were too small. But it seemed like a pretty nice place.

I like the room lay out at Westminster Shores and the view, and it’s a non-profit so the cost was less. I found lots of activity in the community, and it appealed to us. They have a salt water pool and a very fine health and exercise facility. It suits our needs. The person who assisted us was extremely good. They were very professional but yet very caring and friendly. We found the entire experience extremely positive.

My mom felt comfortable with Westminster Towers & Shores -- that is why she chose this facility. The staff was excellent and there was no pressure. They recognized that the parents need to be the one who are making the decision, and they encouraged her to come back for lunch and stay overnight. Those are the things that she experienced before she made her decision, and that was very helpful. The rooms were nice and the place is very clean and bright.

We liked the Westminster Manor very much, but it was rather expensive. The apartment that we saw had a bathroom and three very small rooms. The dining area was very nice.

The staff was very cooperative at Westminster Manor. It's very, very clean. I enjoyed my visit with them very much. I know that the food there is very good, too. This appears to be a very caring place. They have a bus that will take people shopping if they wish. They have games, and also there's a church that's right there on campus. One thing that I'm concerned about, though, is cost. They were probably the most expensive of the three, but sometimes you get what you pay for.

We toured the facility and met with Curt about costs, transitions, medical services.Everyone there was friendly, kind and helpful. The location on the water is gorgeous with plenty of areas to sit/walk to appreciate it. Clean and nicely decorated. They offer lots of activities frequent trips to Bealls/Pubix, and the menus were varied.

Westminster Towers & Shores were wonderful. They did things for mom that made her go back using her body and her brain. I was very, very pleased with the progress that she made there. The staff was terrific. They were always smiling which I liked and I appreciated that. No one was ever having a bad day. We were just so thrilled with them. The people there are also extremely friendly. The facility is very, very clean. It's right down the river so you've got the river view up the window. The rooms were very nice. The rooms share the same bath with another resident.. Each room has their own T.V. and a hospital bed that raise up and down. My mom had a great experience there and it was for us great experience all around.

I went to Westminster Towers and I liked it very much. The people there are very friendly and the atmosphere was good. I like the people in there and I like the programs that they offer. They got three levels of care. If I would need assisted living this is the place where I would go.

Westminster is a very nice and clean place. They serve three meals a day. I have a very nice one-bedroom apartment and there's plenty of room. The people are nice. They have some very nice social activities and each day we're doing something different. For example, we're having hotdogs and hamburgers one day, then game day the next, a fashion show, or a bunch of guys who are 100 years old would tell us stories.

When I visited Westminster Manor, the place was very clean. The people were very nice. They were re-doing the dining at the time when I was there. When they showed me the rooms, they were very small. It has no kitchen just a bathroom that you could get into. I used a walker all the time, so I don't think the rooms would be large enough for me and my walker.

The first is Residential Living which is for those who can live comfortably and safely on their own the same as they would in their own home.

These special services can be provided to people on campus in their residential homes or in specially designed supportive services apartments. The third option is called Health Center which provides on-campus Person-Centered Care 24/7 for either respite or long-term stays.

This facility is one among the best in the county. It was very clean, the staff and nurses were very polite and caring.It had a very warm at home feeling considering what type of facility it was. The patients were very well taking care of including my mother before she passed away there. They were very sorrowful for the family. I would recommend this facility to anyone who is looking to put a loved one in a nursing home.

The staff was always very friendly and nice. They were very supportive and helpful to my family when my Grandmother passed away while living there. They took great care of their patients and met all of their needs, along with their families needs. The facility was always clean and tidy and they allowed therapy pets to be used, which seemed very nice to me. The rooms were a very good size and allowed the residents to be able to move around freely, especially if they were in a wheelchair. There was ample space for all of their belongings and each room was set up to have a television with cable. The facility was well-staffed and there were numerous people available on every floor if any type of assistance was needed. The food was also high quality and very good. They had a great selection of different foods to meet every resident's needs. I would highly recommend this facility.

My parents recently moved into the Shores at Westminster. From the very beginning, when they made an inquiry about moving there to the end, where they were moved into the facility, everything was handled in a very professional and respectful manner. There was someone to walk them through every aspect of the move and help them feel comfortable with their decisions and welcome in their new home. They have adjusted to the new surroundings and love it. They love walking through the surrounding neighborhood. They love the food, so Mom has decided to hang up her apron.
