The Best Senior Living Communities in Wauchula, FL

"My mother-in-law is going to Fellowship Home at the Fairway. The tour went wonderfully. I toured it myself several weeks ago with the intake specialist. The place was just bright, cheery, and clean. They have all kinds of activities there. They have a huge library and an ice cream shop. It's well above anything that we looked at. They also have several common coffee areas where you can have coffee or read a book or whatever. They have a game room, a crafts room, a physical therapy room, and a beautiful courtyard. The units have balconies, which is nice. They're wonderful people, too. The place was spotless. Everyone that was there seemed to be very happy."

"Family Extended Care of Sebring is very clean and neat. They have a very caring staff. Ron is excellent. The building is older, but it has been redone, freshly painted, and has new floors. It's a very nice area. The dining area is lovely. It's going to be close to my loved ones' primary home so their friends can visit them. They offered the services that we needed."

"Very clean and friendly staff. Such a positive environment to be in. Residents are treated with respect and love. "

"I have my dad in Desoto Health & Rehab. It is a very nice place, the people are very friendly, and caring. The staff is tremendous. They take care of my dad really well. He shares a room. He has a roommate. It's very clean. They've been making a lot of improvements since the hurricane a few years ago, so it's all nice and up-to-date. The food is excellent. I'd eaten there before COVID. If they want certain things like hot dogs or hamburgers, they make them whatever they would like. After the hurricane they redid mostly the whole thing over."

"Tanglewood is a 55 and above community and I love it. Everybody in the company loves their job, they're very nice people, and interactive. It's a very safe, gated community. They have dances, cards, bingo, games, dinners, and we got Olympics. There's a pool, we got a tennis court, all kinds of stuff. The facility is beautiful, it's great. This is independent living but we own our homes here; there aren't like manufactured homes."

"The staff was very friendly. The residents were very welcoming, and everybody was forthcoming with information. The place was very clean and seemed to be very suited to what we might need. We saw the dining areas, the living areas, and the common areas. They introduced us to the aides who do the caregiving to the residents. They had game sheets around. The residents were getting ready to play cornhole. They talked about games that they like to play, people that came to visit, and people that came to sing for them. The person who assisted us during the tour was very informative and very helpful. They were working on some remodeling. It wasn't perfect but they were working on it."

"My husband was recently discharged from Oaks At Avon. The nursing staff was overall very nice. The aid Nathen and Nurse Jenny are the best and always helped when needed. Therapy is great at getting you going. Food is ok, laundry services could use some work as they lose some clothes. Overall I'd recommend this place. "

"Momma had a stroke ~ Tampa General listed 4 places in or close to Avon Park where we live for therapy. We siblings toured all 4. Judging by outside appearance of buildings Royal Care was the oldest. (But well maintained) Inside is what turned our heads. ALL staff was happy, personable & caring in their interaction with patients, other staff & visitors. The RC patients were also much happier even in thei personal battles of recovery. The Therapy center was head & shoulders above other facilieties as well. It was bright airy and welcoming. It was full of folks doing their daily work outs with therapists. My momma improved dramatically while there. The food was outstanding, they offered a really great variety of tasty & attractive meals not the same old nursing home style. Like we saw in Kentucky with my mother in law.and the coffee was good. They are so good they serve meals on wheels for our Avon Park community. If I needed help with anything for momma any staff member passing by would either stop to help or run for help - I never heard "Not my job" Honestly I can not say enough about the care my momma received. RC is rated 5 star on line but We give it 10 stars! Avon Park is a very nice community, you should visit AvonPark Lakes Baptist Church if you come here, but there are other great churches. We have a cool Historical Museum, State College, many excellent restraunts, shopping, the historic Jacaranda Hotel, Advent Hospital is about 6 miles away, many good doctors. Donaldson Park is a playground picnic/ shuffel board/tennis court swimming area you can enjoy. and we are only about 10 miles from Highlands Hammock State Park with catwalks, camp ground, trails & picnic area, Museum, snack shop & sometimes music in the park."

Wishing You Were Here Oaks Village is a retirement community offering an affordable comfortable, and secure environment for mature adults desiring Christian fellowship in their later years. Location, Location, Location Located in central Florida, OV residents escape the below-freezing temperatures, snow and ice of harsh winter months while relaxing in their outdoor pool and enjoying the abundance of other activities such as shopping, golfing, fishing, walking, and boating all year round. As you explore the community surrounding OV, you will discover many citrus groves, ranches, and fresh water lakes. Safety, Security and Peace of Mind Safety, security and peace of mind are important at OV, so we included an electronic-gated security entrance, perimeter fencing around the entire complex and yard lighting. In addition, each home has access to an emergency call system whereby residents can directly contact a nurse at The Oaks at Avon Nursing. Oaks Village is an affordable retirement community of Christian love and fellowship. Today OV features a beautifully landscaped, 24-acre complex of custom-built single family homes, duplexes, four-plexes, a clubhouse and an in-ground pool…and more. Compassionate Care As we age, some functions of independent living become more difficult to perform without assistance. Sometimes it is the lack of companionship, which leads to loneliness or boredom or the little things that seem to become a burden such as writing a letter, balancing a checkbook, baking cookies or shopping for Christmas gifts. Sometimes it is more basic such as maintaining a neat and clean home, planning meals or doing the laundry. The needs vary from person to person. Compassionate Care is a program designed to allow Oaks Village residents to maintain their independence in their own home for as long as possible. It focuses on quality of life needs and is individualized so each resident defines his or her own program. Program components include activities, chores, companionship, errands, laundry, light housekeeping, shopping and transportation. As the need arises, expansion is planned to include an emergency alert device system and home delivered meals. Personal care is available by third party contract. Oaks Village is not a licensed assisted living provider. Services provided are for support only and are designed to enhance the independent living experience. Quality Custom-Home Construction At Oaks Village, every detail has been designed to ensure your comfort. Our structurally-solid homes are built to last and are virtually maintenance free due to the quality of materials used. Friendship and Fellowship Owned and developed by World Gospel Mission of Marion, Indiana, OV opened in 1995 for retired missionaries and friends of WGM. Many residents of OV have a rich Christian heritage of serving mission fields around the world while others are simply just enjoying the fellowship of Christians with similar beliefs.

"The staff was very friendly and nice. I have spoken with a few clienteles there and it seemed to be a nice place. They showed me a couple rooms and they were fine. The surrounding was very nice and it was quite a large area. I was really pleased with them. I would recommend it to others. "

"I have to give a five star review because my time here has been great to staff has been very attentive to my needs and I am progressing in therapy. Administration has been great. The admissions Director helped me get around my insurance to get me approved to come in for rehab. The building is older, but the Care has been great. Food is good! I love playing bingo in activities. My CNA’s are nice. I would recommend this place and I will come back here again."

"I toured The Manor at Lake Jackson. The tour was great. People were nice. You could tell they were caring and thoughtful. I was overwhelmed with the experience. The rooms had different sizes according to what you were looking for and what furniture might fit in to make it feel more at home. The dining area was a pretty good size. The staff was exceptional. The upkeep was very good, and everything was clean. I was impressed."

"I went to Lakeshore Manor at Lake Jackson. It was beautiful but they were very, very expensive. I like it because it has a lot of choices in floor plans. The building seemed to be in really good condition. They were working on some issues that they had on the structure, but nothing major that I could see. There's a lot of floor plans there, which is good. They have about the same number of amenities. It's a newer building than the rest of them. I saw one of the one-bedroom units that was in there. The dining room was nice. They have a library and craft rooms, and stuff like that, but it was out of our price range. The staff wasn't as nice there, too."

"Four years ago, My husband was at the Rohr Home for 5 1/2 months. The care and cleanliness of this facility was amazing. The nurses, and CNA’s are attentive and extremely caring, best in Polk County! Maintenance is the best I have seen in any facility (I actually worked in several myself). The management is top notch starting with the Director of this home. I thank God for this facility in our county! The rooms are clean and adequate! I had a great relationship with the staff. In fact, they are my friends! Pam, the Activities Director is amazing! She plans parties for the staff on a regular basis. She has Volunteers come in to help with craft days. She coordinates local entertainment; musicals, church services, plays, volunteers to call monopoly, exercise programs, Christmas parties, plays and gift sharing. She as well as the other directors visit the residents. The staff reminds the residents that it is their home!"
