Willson House

William

The people at Willson House needed very clear help because either they're entering dementia or injured by accidents and had to be in wheelchairs. They eat in the cafeteria and some of them can feed themselves, but others may need help from one of the nurses. It's a very safe place with three stories and elevators maintained constantly. A kindergarten is associated with them, so they bring kids over and sing for them. They have Alzheimer's patients. They go shopping and have a bus come for them. They take good care of the residents, but I feel they need more nurses.

Everything was fine until my mom passed and we were told we would get our 500.00 security deposit back-the they kept lying to us that the check was mailed finally after 30 days we get a check for half the amount with no explanation why it was short, when we called they wouldn't talk to us. She was only there 3mo.s and there was no damage or anything owed by us, we were paid full and clear until the first and that even gave them 4 days of care that we didn't even request be refunded..

We visited a few facilities maybe 2 or 3, but one of them I definitely did not like; it was Wilson House. The reason for that was it’s a nice facility and all of that. The office area was really great, but when we stepped into the residential hall, it smelled dirty. It wasn’t a hospital smell, but it just smelled like they hadn’t been cleaned, and they cost more than the others we visited. The dining area was really great. They have patios for the residents, and they could plant on their patios. Everything seemed really great until we stepped to where the apartments were.

Wilson House was very good too. The people were all very good. I was just disappointed that they didn't accept us because my aunt didn't need as much care as they wanted her to have. However, if I had a choice, I would have my aunt in there right now.

The rooms there at Willson House are small and old. The dining room is small. It is an old place, and it is more of a retirement living place -- not at all what we were looking for. The staff was very friendly and very nice. I didn't see many activities because the first impression was not what we wanted. They need to update their facility.

Willson House is kept clean. The kitchen, dining room, and bathroom are kept really clean. The rooms are small. The staff is very nice, respectful, and willing to answer lots of questions. They provide Hoyer lift and 2-people lift. I guess the big thing is the bingo. They also have a Bible study every Wednesdays, but they're not exactly church services. The dining area is very nice. As far as the food goes, there's an alternate meal like a corned beef sandwich. They have certain things they offer ongoing, like a restaurant menu that you can get at lunch time and dinner time. It's a restaurant setting. They're open from 7 in the mornings till 6 at night. Their food is tolerable and pretty good. They need to improve on the way they awaken people in the morning. But some changes have been implemented. I guess my reaction would be if you plan on finding a place here, it's close, and it's tolerable. The caregivers were caring. 90% of them do a really good job.
