Memory Care Communities in Williamsville, NY

"My father lived here and I was extremely happy with his care. Hospice came in at the end and dad passed away peacefully. From the very beginning I was shown kindness and respect. They were all so helpful and I am grateful for the excellent service provided to our family. I highly recommend this campus. "

"Peregrine Senior Living at Orchard Park is excellent. It's very clean, caring, and keeps the residents active, engaged, and safe. It has plenty of activities. My mom moved there in January. It's a memory care facility."

"We chose Park Creek because it had more spiritual value for Mom. It offered her communion and the Holy Mass, which is very important to her. It's a smaller community, so it seemed to be the right fit for her. The staff is lovely; they're very attentive. She has a bedroom. She and another woman share a bathroom, and she seems very, very happy. Yesterday, they had chicken, stuffing, and vegetables and they said it was delicious. They get soup every lunch, and they have choices from the menu as to sandwiches and the warm meal. Breakfast is usually omelets or French toast or oatmeal. They have a very nice menu. They have sittercise almost everyday. They have Wii bowling and Wii games that they play. They have different activities for them as far as game types. The religious part of it is every single day at 11 o'clock, that's for one hour, and then they have their social hours. They have ice cream socials. They have people come in to play music for them. She seems to really like it there. She's socializing with people her age. Today, they were down in the activities room making puzzles. An Eastern Hills Mall is near there. There are a lot of nice restaurants in the plazas. There are large supermarkets right there, should she choose to get in the car and go, if she wanted some snacks or something for her bedroom. There are a lot of other senior living facilities around there, too. "

"We toured Fredonia Place of Williamsville. They have a nice facility, although it is a little bit larger, so their activities room is bigger. The chapel here was bigger, and here they have a deacon that's onsite that does masses and stuff like that, so that was a viable option for people who have a religious background. One nice thing is that every section has a nurse's station. They put it behind the wall, so that way, as you're walking around, you don't see that. It feels more like an apartment area as opposed to a health facility. They have a really large kitchen that can be reserved for family use. They stock everything that you would need to use it with, like pots, pans, dishes, utensils and spices, and stuff like that. All you have to do is bring in your food if you're going to cook a meal for the resident that's living there. The person that we were working with was not very responsive. His name was Michael. Even when we had the tour scheduled for my mother-in-law, he didn't even show up and someone else had to do the tour for us. That just made us a little leery about it. If he's not responding and then doesn't show up for the tour, what's going on in this place is not well managed. That just didn't give us a very comfortable feeling. The building is two stories and they only have availability on the bottom floor, which means my mother-in-law would have to take an elevator to get to all the activities and the eating area. We knew she wouldn't be comfortable with that because she has mobility issues. "

"My mom lives here (for 3 years) and since May with the recent change in management I can now say the facility is simply exceptional! Previously we had struggles with getting the "little things" accomplished but since we started meeting with the new executive director and the director of nursing we have never been so pleased. The staff clearly love their jobs now and you can feel the positive energy and passion. The new manager is always seen outside her office showing love and compassion to the folks who live there and I always see her recognizing her employees. My mom loves her and love Brompton because of her .. my hope is that the corporate office recognizes her passion and hangs on to her, the turnover previously has been bad. If you have a parent that needs a place .. look no further!"

"Heathwood Assisted Living & Memory Care at Williamsville was fantastic. They're an all-inclusive facility. If you run out of money, Medicaid will take over. They have lots of activities and they were trying to get the people engaged to keep their minds going. They had some lovely outside spaces and during the summer, they have a musician that comes in on Fridays and plays outdoors so the people can come, sit, and listen to that. It was very nice. The rooms were lovely. Even the studio had a fairly spacious place. Everything was kept very clean and neat. The woman who did the tour knows everyone there and they all love her. She's a very caring woman. They have a salon, a gym area, and a nice sit-down dining area. When I was there, it was in the afternoon and they had three different areas where they had people doing activities of different kinds. One was doing stuff that worked on your mind, another was doing some exercises. They had quite several people engage in these activities. So, it's my first choice right now."

"Bristol Village, Inc is very clean and does not have a bad smell. This place is extremely well kept, and the people are very friendly. We chose it for the general appearance and the staff who was extremely knowledgeable and extremely concerned about my parents' well-being. They have been very receptive. The one thing they could improve on is getting the residents involved in activities. I have eaten there, and the food was good. "

"My mom moved to Brothers Of Mercy Sacred Heart Home. It's really been very positive. They're very caring. They get all three meals and snacks. They always have snacks available. The facility, it's single-level. It has wide halls, no obstructions, and her doors are all wide. She's got a sliding door in her bathroom. It's just really nice. It's newer. They have bingo. They had a custom party for Halloween. They went trick or treating. They do manicures. They do have happy hour and they usually have snacks and drinks. They have games. They have name-that-tune kind of games and things like that. They always have puzzles going and coloring. They do have a lot of what's going on. I think it's well worth the money."

"My interaction with the staff has always been positive. I have been allowed to see my relative in a private room. Guest must wear masks to protect themselves and the patient. My relative has good food and does fun activities which he will share with me. This home sometimes has pastors visit on Sundays."

"My mom was in the memory care unti here for 10 months. I found the staff to be very kind and caring. The facility is pleasant and clean. They made a difficult transition much easier. "

"My uncle chose Greenfield Court. He’s in rehabilitation in that same facility. The rooms are very nice. The staff is friendly. The rehabilitation is good. The dining area looks nice. The environment is good. I liked it. "

"After my uncle died in 2012, my aunt lived alone for the next 10 years until she was 94. When she started having dementia and needed assisted living, a friend of mine in New York took her around to look at facilities and we chose Wheatfield Commons. I live in California and can not travel do to health issues. The facility is gorgeous. My friends always sent pictures and it looked like a high end elegant hotel. She lived there for 2 years before passing 3 weeks ago. At first she lived in assisted living and had her own room. The administrative staff and the daily staff were always amazing and kept in touch with me, sent pictures and took care of every issue that came up. When the time came for her to move to memory care, I figured my aunt would have a nuclear meltdown but the transition went smoothly, mostly because they know what they’re doing there. I can’t say enough about the activities directors on both the assisted living and memory care side. My aunt thrived learning how to paint, play games, outings and they also had her doing some baking. Also they offered a religious service on Sunday morning that she enjoyed attending. She was more than thrilled to participate in all those activities. And as a strong Sicilian woman, they knew how to redirect and guide her through the days she needed some extra care. I live in California and wasn’t sure how things would work out at first. Being 3,000 miles away, I figured it could be a recipe for disaster if these people weren’t legit, but as the weeks, months and years went by, I knew they cared for her like she was their own grandmother. They called with updates, sent pictures and kept me posted when she wasn’t feeling well. They loved and cared for her. The administrative staff was also amazing. I lost count of how many times I called John, the Director of Sales and Marketing, in the beginning. He always came to the phone and also helped me work out getting help with movers when she moved in, Veteran benefits to help with the cost and other issues I needed help with. He was always so willing to help with anything that came up. I received the same assistance to detail with Christine, the Administrator of the facility. No matter what happened or what I needed, she was there to help and guide me. I have no regrets and highly recommend Wheatfield Commons. This facility was a Godsend to me."

"My mother loved her time there! Her room was great, her floor was nice, quiet, clean and she got the exact level of care that she needed for that time! I'm very pleased with the facility and would recommend to any of my loved ones!"

"When we placed my mom at Elderwood in Wheatfield it was one of the best facilities for dementia. Sadly, it has declined terribly. It is extremely understaffed. My mom’s dementia unit with 20 patients frequently has only one aide and sometimes that aide also has the 20 additional dementia patients on the other side. Some of the aides hide in the utility room and aren’t on the floor for extended periods of time. I have spent thousands of dollars on clothes for mom as they keep “disappearing.” Currently she is missing 5 pairs of jog pants. I put in for reimbursement of 3 hoodies last March. I am still wsiting for reimbursement 7 months later. It is impossible to reach anyone at corporate office. I and my 4 daughters are checking on mom 5 days per week. So sad and frustrating."
