The Wyndmoor Evansville

Karen

I toured The Wyndmoor Evansville. It was very clean with a lot of open spaces for the residents to gather if they wanted. I only spoke with that administrator, and she was very nice and very helpful. The facility was very good. I liked the convenience, the cleanliness, and the additives.

My mom lived there and for the last 10 months that she was there she absolutely loved it. She made new friends she enjoyed the daily devotions. She was not so happy about the food but that is because she from the south and just ate different. She missed her home cooking but they made the transition so much easier for her and me too. She loved the staff and was very fond of maintenance cause they made her laugh all the time. I really have nothing about the care she received.

I toured The Wyndmoor Evansville. The staff was very nice. It was very clean, but it was just not what I was looking for. It's more like assisted living, and I'm not ready for that yet. The staff who gave the tour was very nice, knowledgeable, and very helpful. The rooms were too small. That's one of the main reasons. The studio apartment looks like a closet, and it doesn't even have a closet. The one-bedroom is nice, but it's more like a nursing home than an assisted living facility. That's the first assisted living facility I ever visited, so I wasn't sure what to expect, and it's not something that I'm interested in. They showed me the whole facility. They do different things. They have card night, and they have musicians coming in and entertainment for them. They have movie nights and things like that. The atmosphere was very nice. I didn't see any residents that looked that happy. They were having breakfast when I got there, so they were quite busy in the dining room.

I'm at The Wyndmoor of Evansville and I'm doing OK. The staff members are all very nice. I like them all. I've got a nice room, and it's comfortable. They say it's large, but I don't think it's large. I'm in the new part and the rooms in the new part were supposed to be larger and nicer than the old part, but I don't think it's very large. It had a little kitchenette. The dining area is very nice and we've got twelve tables. The food is very good. Today, we have Friday's lunch and dinner and we have to mark what we want on it, like breaded fish and vegetables. The dessert is a chocolate chip cookie for lunch and dinner an angel food cake. They have good choices. Today, the fourth graders from Highland School came and had their violins. They were all dressed in orange Halloween shirts, and they put on a little Halloween program for us. We enjoyed that. I went to a painting class, but the instructor didn't show up. On Tuesday, we had a lady come and she played songs with her bells, and that was very good. I enjoyed that a lot. I don't go to bingo because I think it is boring, but a lot of them go because I think that's one of the main activities. I went to the beauty shop and the lady comes every Tuesday and she cut my hair Tuesday. We have a van that goes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We have to make our appointments early. They would like for us to make it three weeks ahead of time. I've got to give them information about my doctor's appointment, which is in three weeks. It's just awfully expensive. They bring my medicine to me. I take insulin shots and they give me my insulin shot every night.

My mother has moved into The Wyndmoor of Evansville. I chose them because of their apparent quality. I've been to the facility several times and I've talked with staff quite a few times and they are obviously on the ball and very caring. I was particularly impressed with the sensitivity of the staff to the needs of my mother. They're very welcoming and very attentive. They do a good job of looking after her. They are renovating and doing quite a bit of work on the kitchen, so they are having to truck a lot of the food over from a sister facility in Evansville. That has an impact on the quality of the food. There are not a lot of facilities, just a few, but the quality and upkeep of the apartment are very good. There is a garden area that's enclosed in a courtyard that is very important to my mother who loves to garden, but it needed a little more care. There are no out-of-pocket costs. The costs are covered by Medicare and Medicaid entirely.

We went to The Wyndmoor Evansville. It was adequate. I wasn't overly thrilled with anything there. It was kind of average. The location wasn't the best. They had a garden, like a quad kind of an area in the middle of the facility. It was rather small and they were under construction. The staff was great. It was very clean.
