The Windsor of Gainesville

I went to The Windsor of Gainesville. The biggest thing was the guests themselves. The Windsor's residents were very friendly. I wanted to see what the guests looked like and how they were reacting. Every guest that we saw was happy. They were smiling. They were enjoying themselves. So it was more of a family atmosphere than other places that we looked at. The apartment has a full fridge, microwave, and bathroom. It's a real apartment. The living room is separate from the bedroom.

The Windsor of Gainesville is a beautiful, very upscale, very lovely facility. It's high-end. I think they have up to 99 residents. The staff members were great. They were very helpful and nice and gave me all the information I asked for. They had all kinds of things. They had a theater. The dining room was very lovely. It was very nice. They have lots of activities. They have a library. They have crafts and entertainment. They have a theater where you can go watch a movie every day. It's fancy and beautiful and it's like living in a hotel.

I'm probably going to go with The Windsor of Gainesville for my mother. I walked in there and it looked like a five-star hotel. I hope my mom will be very happy there. I'm delighted to have found that place. I saw the dining area, the theater room, and the hairdressing room. The staff who gave me the tour was very personable, knowledgeable, friendly, delightful, hardworking, and very informative. I felt all my questions were answered. She gave me a cupcake when I left and it was delicious. This place looked pristine, and they had an incredible menu selection and great activities, which I hope my mom will do. They had a center courtyard that was pleasant. The apartment had a little kitchenette area and I will supply all the furniture and everything, but it's a nice living space for her. They would provide 3 meals a day and I think there were snacks around. I found out that I could dine with her for a small fee, which is cheaper than going to a restaurant.

I looked at The Windsor of Gainesville. It was very good. The people there were good. I think my mom-in-law could fit in there very well. They have semi-private rooms. They do have private rooms, but you had to get on a waiting list, so we just prefer the other facility because they're all private rooms. I toured both assisted living and memory care. The semi-private rooms are smaller, but the place was clean and nice. The thing that stuck out about The Windsor of Gainesville, which was good is that memory care is limited to 24 people. When I was in there and it was like 2:00 in the afternoon, they talked about how they try to keep them engaged. I counted 18 people that they had out either engaged with each other or a caregiver engaging with them, so it was good to see that they did what they say they do. They keep them engaged because the majority of people were out, and they were active and doing things, and that's inside memory care. That was very impressive. The facility is a pretty good size. They have other areas with activities. They had a small movie theater where they were giving a presentation. There were a few people in there. They offer a lot. The big thing is with the people who need memory care, they probably don't want to participate in things, but they had them out participating in crafts and discussions and things, so it was good.

The tour at The Windsor of Gainesville was professional. The staff gave us a grand tour, and we were impressed compared to the other three that we visited. The staff was very professional and personal. You get your own bed. They have a closet for clothes and cable TV hookups, but you must bring your own TV and telephone. They do the laundry. They have a courtyard and a physical therapy room with stationary bikes and such.

Out of the four facilities I visited this was definitely our top choice. The tour and application process was great. Not able to rate the care or food or activities at this time, but I will update.
