Nursing Home Communities in Wilmington, DE

"We toured Gilpin Hall. It was a very good tour. My mother was very happy with visiting. She was very happy and expressed how she would like to be a resident there. The rooms were good. The facility was very well maintained and very clean, and everything was suitable to move my mother there as a resident. The staff was very good and knowledgeable, and took their time showing us around the facility, to the rooms, the dining area, and the game room. We didn't try the food, but the dining area was very clean and very well-kept."

"We selected Parkview Nursing. My friend is there for long-term care. It is wonderful. The place is very clean and the staff is very friendly. They meet all my friend's needs. I have been very impressed so far. The food is fine. They have bingo, she gets rehabilitation three to five days a week (including weekends), they have a choir, and they have non-denominational church services. They do a good job."

"Hillside Center was very nice. I liked it very much. I would have taken my mom there. The facility was very clean, the rooms were very nice, spacious and adequate enough. They were very good with how they work with people in there. They have a lot of activities for them. They also had a nice library for reading and a nice library for movies. "

"Stonegates was absolutely outstanding, but very expensive. The apartments were great. They're laid out very well and they're oriented to the community they're trying to serve. The staff member was great. She knew what she was doing and she had a great facility. They have everything. They have cards and guest lectures. The food was wonderful and the dining area was set up like a restaurant. It's like a five-star resort."

"My brother-in-law's been placed in Weston Senior Living at Highfield, and it's very good. It has a very homey atmosphere, and we like it a lot. The only problem is that he is soon going to Medicaid, and they're not Medicaid approved yet. We chose it because we liked it a lot, and it was homey. The food and care are good, and overall, my brother-in-law is very happy there. They have people come in to entertain and an activities director who does bingo and trivia and all kinds of games for the residents. They have an exercise room, a music room, and a solarium. "

"I visited someone at Manorcare at one time, and I thought her room was very small. The fact that she was with somebody who never put the lights out was quite distracting for somebody who is trying to recover from an illness. My friend was there for like three months with Pancreatitis, and I would say she felt good about it. There was no staff to greet me though. There was somebody behind the counter, and I asked where my friend was, but there was nobody other than that. There was no person wandering around looking for newcomers or anything of that sort. I think it is fine. There were people in the hall in wheelchairs. My friend had a trainer that was coming, she was going for exercises, and her doctor came to see her frequently. Another new facility which is just up the road will have independent living, assisted living, and memory care but no nursing. The people who run that have indicated that if you need nursing care, you should go to Manorcare. "

"The staff at the facility are extremely friendly people. The number of activities available to the residents of the center is innumerable from lounging in the rec-room to swimming in their indoor pool. The food is also excellent there and the residents are always happy, seemingly. Every year we go to visit at their christmas party that is held there, in the gymnasium. The event is catered very well and all the residents' families are able to visit and enjoy themselves with music, presents, and good food. The visiting hours are not restrictive at all, allowing family members to come and go as they please so long as they sign in. Every resident is also given a roommate and a private room, almost like a dorm, accompanied with televisions, telephones and almost anything else the residents could ask for. The staff is also ready to accomodate any need that the residents could ask for. The facilities are also kept remarkably clean. "

"I visited Country House. It has an independent living. It used to be assisted living, but they've added a great big addition to it and put cottages out front. I didn't get to see any of the rooms. However, the whole layout of the place was pretty nice because they had underground parking. As far as I know, it was really good on that. The amenities were not the same as the other place, though."

"I toured Coral Springs Rehab and Health Center. I like the location. It looked like a clean, well-managed facility. It was very close to where we live, so it's convenient. The person who showed me around was very professional and informative. I didn't make an appointment, I was walk-in, and she was very accommodating."

"Milton & Hattie Kutz Home was more homey and seemed more comfortable. It had much prettier grounds and a quieter setting. They spent less time on the sales side of things. They were just telling us all the amenities, these and that. The person who talked to us knew more about the residents, what they were doing, and what they enjoyed. The tour was just more personable and less sales-oriented. They have movie nights, game nights, craft nights, live entertainment, and different little clubs that the residents have formed for themselves. They had just just enough of everything."

"My mother-in-law was at Regal Heights Healthcare & Rehab Center. They do rehab. They have doctors on staff. They have a rehab facility. At that time, my mother-in-law had problems with her legs. She had specialized care in the rehab for her legs, and they did a great job there. The facility was well maintained. They checked on her all the time. The food was like in old nursing homes. It was mediocre because you had to feed hundreds of people. So it's not a gourmet restaurant. My mother-in-law's room was pretty nice. We got her in on the long-term care Medicaid."

"I toured Forwood Manor. It's a nice building. It's a nice landscaping and amenities. It's a very nice place to be. The staff was excellent, very caring, and warm. We had lunch there. There are a lot of outdoor spaces, and they have a library. They had therapy there."

"I live in Cokesbury Village. I have lived in this place for 10 years. It's for about 400 people, and they have everything from independent residents to health care residents. I have a small cottage. We have apartments in the main building and cottages of various sizes, smaller ones and 3-bedroom cottages. There is a wide variety. We are very pleased with the staff. Right now, we can't do anything, but they have a lot of gymnastics and things like that, a lot of music, movies, groups that come in to entertain us, and lots of lectures. It is a very lively community, but right now, we are very careful. We have a wonderful library. The library is really one of the highlights, and it is one of the best that I have seen anywhere. We have a small swimming pool and a fitness room, and in both of them, only one or two people are allowed at the same time. They are planning to build an extra large kind of indoor tennis room. We have wonderful grounds with lots of gardening. There's a wide selection of food and quite a bit of meatless like vegetarian meals. It's a little bit more expensive than many others, but I think the facility is wonderful."
