My wife is at Waverly Gardens. She is there for long-term care. It is good. It is a nice place. They have lots of activities. The reason why we're leaving is because it is very expensive. We just can't afford that high bill. The staff is very good. Her room is more like a hospital room. She is in long-term care where the doors are open. She is almost under supervision all the time. It's a private room. She is by herself. The only activity they have is rehabilitation exercises; that's the only one I saw. The people that are there are old people and all they do is sit in their wheelchairs and do nothing all day. The only activity they have is watching TV. Food is OK.

My mother was at Waverley for almost eight years, first in independent living, and then in assisted living. Waverly espouses Christian values and commitment to ongoing caring for its residents as they require more assistance. Don’t believe this. After a fall and trip to the Emergency Room, Waverley staff said they could no longer care for her and asked her to leave, refusing to assist at all with trying to locate a suitable alternate nursing home - this despite the family having always paid the very high price of Waverly care. Presbyterian homes claims to give priority to residents at ALL of their facilities based on length of residence and need. Don’t believe this. They placed huge pressure on my family to get my mother out, just washed their hands of her when she needed more help. Disgraceful for a supposedly Christian institution.
Very Poor Weekend Staffing and Care

My friend has been a assisted living resident for over two years and this past year went to a hospice care management plan. She is a proud senior and deserves proper care in line with her monthly payments to Waverly. We visit on weekends and the level of care and staffing of qualified personnel is marginal and frankly pathetic. She is left alone in her room with the door shut, has no response or very late responses to the nurse light request for meds and bathroom visits, does not have her bedding changed as scheduled during the week, is left to navigate bathroom herself, has no one to put in her hearing aides, is given meds off schedule and with varying doses to relieve pain, etc. This is very poor and disgusting care from a facility that charges big dollars and promotes themselves as the ultimate care facility. I must admit that there are a few very helpful and empathetic staff nurses and aides but these terrific people are the exception and only seem to be available during the weekdays. I do not recommend Waverly Gardens for your loved ones.

We need two bedrooms and a library in our unit and they have that at Waverly Gardens. We've been on the list there for a couple of years now. I think it's very popular or else people just aren't moving. They have a pool, and a workshop for the men, and they also have meals provided if you're interested. They have the three steps, independent living, assisted living, and beyond, which we like. It's very pretty and it looks comfortable, and we like the units that we looked at. They have a laundry facility and a fireplace. The staff during the tour was very lovely, and knowledgeable, took plenty of time with us, and answered all our questions. We stayed for lunch one day and it was delicious. They have a nice little shop and a cafe that you can go to.

Waverly Gardens was a very active and welcoming community. There were plenty of activities and my mom especially liked that there was a pool, an exercise facility, theater rooms, and a nice solarium. The apartments were clean, spacious, and updated. The dining area was very nice. A part of it looked like a restaurant, a part of it looked like a home and it was inviting. There was a salon, a library, and a room that doubled as a church and a music/activity room. Andrea gave a nice tour and was very informative. She wasn't pushy, but she answered all our questions. She even followed up after the tour to see what we were thinking.

Horrible care! My mother spent 10 days in transitional care after her surgery. We have specific instructions regarding her meals. They practically starved her! We left lots of additional food in her fridge. They never gave her any of it. She lost 12 lbs during her stay. She had numerous welts and bruises on her head and body. Very unprofessional staff. One nurse was actually wearing a “Shut Up Karen” tshirt. They nurses were dismissive and rude. The management team lied about what was going on. They promise lots of things up front but they do not deliver. I wish would could have filed charges against them!

We're on a waiting list for Waverly Gardens. They have a lot of activities. There were shops like a wood shop and paint shop, and we can keep busy with exercises. It was very good and clean, the staff member was very courteous, and very informative. Everything was good there.

I liked Waverly Gardens, but they had a long wait list. It was on a lake with wheelchair-accessible paths all around it, a solarium, a movie theater, a putting green, and a workshop for the men.

I have been extremely pleased with my stay here and hope for ,any more years with you. I have no complaints, but as I understand it each until received $150 per month. I never use all of that and would love to throw my unused portion into a pool of some sort to be distributed to those who could use it, especially those how, as a couple, try to eat on that amount during the month. Dan, you and the staff are outstanding and I would like all to know that i really appreciate it. Thanx for asking. Sam

Waverly Gardens may seem expensive, but you get a LOT for your money. We have lived in the MEWS for one year now and have been very happy with the facility, staff, activities and amenities that are included.

Waverly Gardens was the best. Everything is top quality and excellent. It’s homey. However, it requires a lot of money out.

The staff were distant and obviously busy. I didn't mind though, I knew that they each had work to do taking care of the elderly. They seemed to be somewhat understaffed, because they were always running from room to room making sure they had taken care of everyone. The place was very nice, it had several buildings in a manner not unsimilar to a university, and was quite posh. There was a courtyard and the lawn was taken care of very well. Almost everything was wheelchair accessible. The food wasn't so great though, either they got it on the cheap or it was made to fit the diets of all of the elderly living there. I only ate there once so it didn't really matter. Naturally nearly all of the attendants seem depressed and/or distant, but that was understandable and there were a few (usually female) people that were very friendly. All in all I would rate it as a good visit, however brief and strange.

The staff at Presbyterian Homes really seem to care about the well-being of my elderly relatives. They know them by name and recognize me as a granddaughter, and are able to remain very professional while giving very personalized care to my grandparents. My grandmother has memory loss and can be a bit difficult to deal with at times, but the staff has never-ending patience with her. Presbyterian Homes facilities have above-average quality food for their residents and try to provide every amenity possible to create the "comforts of home".
