Westminster Winter Park

Beware buy-in buyers!! PLEASE, make sure you read the contract very closely. Ask to see the communities licensing survey. Ask to visit the Health Care Center. Ask to visit the Memory Care Centers. Ask to visit the Assisted Living Center on the second floor. Ask to see a chart of fire drills/evacuations conducted. This community DOES NOT show these areas for residents who might need extra care down the road of life. Take a close look at what these areas look like compared to the other "fancy" floors . Decide if it is alright for THIS FACILITY to decide for you or your loved one where they will reside if not able to return to independent living. Once you sign the contract, this facility can move you to another area of their choice, no matter what you or your family thinks would be best for that person. In other words, once the contract is signed, they can do whatever they want with your living situation. Be aware of your rights....if you want to have a choice......DO NOT MOVE INTO THIS FACILITY!

My mother went to Westminster (Westminster Winter Park), then she went to the hospital, and she passed way at hospice at Westminster Winter Park. Westminster Winter Park was good. They were better than the other facility. The care was maybe slightly above average. They had a nice program event. They had rehab and inpatient in the same place, so I thought that was pretty cool. My mother became incontinent, and she wasn’t eating much, so there was only so much they could do. I would say they’re a little above average.

I went to Westminster Winter Park and found that it offered more for my needs and provided more opportunity for people to intermingle with each other. They have all kinds of group activities. The staff was terrific. I talked to some of the residents who were very happy with the place.

Winter Park was large, and I was visiting my girlfriend. It had a memory center. My girlfriend’s room was a beautiful view. The rent was higher with a view than it was without a view. The overall plan was nice. I wasn’t impressed with the activities; it didn’t seem well-organized. The staff was nice enough, but I didn’t feel like I belong. Everyone was very nice and friendly, but it’s not my cup of tea.

Westminster was easier to get into, and there’s no waiting period. That’s why I wanted the prescription so that I could go ahead and get in to the ones that don’t allow pets. It suited us in every way to go ahead and to move in to it as a permanent residence for probably the rest of our lives because it’s a community that provides continuing care, but I am not sure if they will accept the prescription. The apartments are like 1140 sq. ft, two bedrooms, two baths, and with a balcony. It’s has a beautiful view on a beautiful lake, and the grounds were beautifully maintained with beautiful, gorgeous landscaping. I am perfectly satisfied with the staff. They have tennis court, crafts, and very delicious meals. Totally enjoyable.

Westminster Winter Park was excellent. They had very good food. The residents were very keen on this place. The surroundings were beautiful. The facility was on a lake. They would have a boat ride. It was very nice.

Winter Park was a very nice place. The people seemed very content there. The apartment they showed me was lovely as were the dining rooms and the activity rooms. I was very impressed. The staff were very gracious, and they were very willing to give us the time to explain things to us.

I visited Winter Park Towers for my father. Everything that I could see was very good. The people were also very good. The rooms were good, spacious and clean. They were modernizing all of them so they were attractive. I didn't eat there, but I saw their dining area which was in a restaurant style. They had a very nice activities room, a pool table room, and they had a shopping mall underneath. Their services fit the price, and it was reasonable.

Winter Park Towers was a bigger facility than any of the places that we looked at, and it had more activities during the day. They have card games, Bridge, dancing, and every night at 7 they have some kind of show, whether it's a movie or a speaker or documentary. They go on outings to the mall and different places. Everybody seemed to be very nice. I've been able to have dinner several times with my grandmother, and it's been great. There's only one meal that I did not care for, but everything that I've had, probably five times, has been good. The room was painted and re-carpeted before moving in. Their courtyard was full of trees. It's quite nice. Not only is it large, but it has a workout facility, a pool, it's on a lake, and there are a lot of things that can keep a person busy. There's even shopping on the facility. It did not smell. It was very pleasant and beautifully decorated, and affordable.

My wife's father was in Winter Park Towers. He was there for five years. It was very well run, very caring staff, good food, good care. The patient-staff ratio was excellent and it was great. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The rooms were very nice, spacious and well-equipped. The dining room was clean and spacious. They have activities and an activity director, everything from speakers to games to entertainment.

For my parent's sake, I have visited the Winter Park Towers when their friends were there. I thought the place is okay though it wouldn't be my first choice. It's an older facility and I don't think that it had been remodeled. The staff were okay, but I was not impressed. Personally, I would just have to say that maybe they could update the facility.

Winter Park Towers is fine except that I feel it is very expensive for us. It is a very upscale community. If you're here, you probably won't want any other place. Their staff is nice. You can have a one-bedroom or a two-bedroom unit with a kitchen. However, this is the kind of place where they want you to put down a large amount of money and then still pay a monthly.

Anyone who visits Winter Park Towers knows they are the best in central Florida. Spotless reputation, real caring for the residents and always had excellent programs. This facility harbors aging adults in various units with differing levels of care involvement by staff. Young volunteers often provide entertainment for the residents, especially those housed in the Amory Way Alzheimer's disease unit. Medical care is superb here, and the hospital has several doctors on staff that routinely see residents for any ailments or problems. The food is reasonable and certainly some of the best that I have had at a hospital/nursing home. The downside to the facility is the high price of admission, but given the lack of comparable programs in central Florida, there is really no alternative.
