Wellstead Senior Living Place

Jeff

We liked the way The Wellstead presents itself as a home, as well as the services they offer, and the availability of everything like recreation and fellowship. Their one-bedrooms were not big nor smaller, but they would work. The place was clean. They had an underground tunnel from memory care to senior living, which was nice. We enjoyed all the aspects of the presentation, such as the layout of the rooms, its size, and cleanliness.

The Wellstead is the best place we've been to yet, and my mother has been in and out of different places. They're very caring people, and they stay on top of things. They have ice cream socials, concerts, and they have birds in the facility itself. We're happy and very pleased with everything they do. We get notified about things when we're supposed to. The staff has been wonderful. She was so picky with food before, but she's been eating very well there. It's a lot more of a personal type of place because it's small. It's locked up, and we have a code to get in and out of the facility, so they can't wander off. This way if they wander, they're not able to get out of the facility. The care has been really good.

I really liked Wellstead, I was really impressed, and even going into the wing where they had severe cases of dementia and Alzheimer’s, people seemed happy. They all seemed active. The staff was really friendly, and I was amazed how they interacted with all the people that lived there. I know there’s a small library and a place for root beer, ice cream, and soda. They were cooking and playing cards.

We chose The Wellstead because they break down the residents according to the different levels of dementia. They didn't have everybody all together. All the rooms are of the same size, so when they have to transfer to another location, it's not going to be a big deal. Mom seems to be doing well there. The staff seems to be good and very accommodating. The dining area has a table with eight people and another table with three people and a nice environment. They have choices for food, and if you just want hamburger every day, they'll let you have it. They have walks, bingo every day, ice cream every day, music, crafts, manicures, and more.

The Wellstead was perfect. They seemed to be the only place that housed the dementia residents with similar levels. The rooms were adequate in size, and each of them had a window, which I think was important.

The Wellstead have both assisted living and memory care. The memory care unit is probably the best that I can imagine anybody having. The staff was very attentive; there was plenty of help. They have 8 to 10 different levels of memory care, and there were staff in each one. The dining area was like they had three units, three different levels in one dining area that kind of would eat together. I thought that was very, very well, and then they each had their own sitting area if they wanted to just sit; it’s going to be in their rooms. The rooms were -- for those patients basically -- plenty of room. The rooms have bathrooms, and then it had a big L; part of that was for the bed and the other part was the sitting area. They could have a chair or couch and their television and so forth in their room. The grounds were beautiful. They had a park like setting so that in the nice weather they could be put outside, they had gardens, and those that were capable could actually plant flowers and work in the garden. They showed me a couple of activities, and I actually was able to observed one group doing the makeup class. It’s got some industry on the opposite side of the road, but on the same side of the road there’s a very nice residential area.
