The Waterford at Fort Worth is independent with assistance, but you pay extra for assistance. The place is fine if youre able to get to and from the dining room. It's very nice and the meals are geared to the older generation. My dad is very weak and he has a walker, so he's unable to walk all the way to the dining room. Everything's expensive and you have to pay extra for extra assistance since it's not included in the rent. They have housekeeping that comes once a week. My dad has a 2-bedroom apartment and it's very nice. It has one bath, a beautiful L-shaped balcony, and it's on the third floor. It's all carpeted and the carpet is nice, but it's a little bit hard to push a walker on. The residents and the staff are very friendly though. They have a library, movie room, and they go on excursions. If your health is halfway decent, you could do these things. It has a lot to offer. They have a couple of buses that take the patients to Walmart once a week. They also do different activities and go on some kind of a scenic drive where they don't get off the bus. It's clean and there's a lot of parking. The grounds are kept very nice and the inside is nice. The carpets are very clean and low pile. They have laundry facilities on each floor.

Called to get information about this community and the person that answered the phone was terribly rude. I can't imagine having a loved one stay in a facility where they can't even be polite on the phone when trying to gather information.

My experience at The Waterford at Fort Worth is excellent. Some of the activities are poker, karaoke nights, Bible studies, other programs and bingo. It keeps us busy having fun and making a lot of friends. My apartment is fine, and the food is very good. They also have very good staff here.

The Waterford at Fort Worth was very nice. Cathy, the person who showed us around, was great, and she followed up with me on several occasions. Everything at that place looked good. They have a library and an open games area, but they don't have a swimming pool or an outside courtyard area, which would have been nice.

The rooms at The Waterford at Fort Worth were very nice, but a few of them were small. The whole building was very nice and very clean. It had everything you can ask for. The pool area and the courtyard were very nice. I also liked the nice staff.

The Waterford at Fort Worth is new and nice, and the price is very reasonable. It has everything -- a chapel, a bus, a private driver that will take residents to special doctors' appointments and beauty shop appointments on Thursdays. They have a very busy activities calendar. They go on trips, out to eat, shopping, and mall walking. They have a dining room that serves 3 meals a day. They have a beauty shop on-site. The food is sometimes better than other days. It has an in-house nursing facility with bridgeway nurses. They have Legacy Physical Therapy, Agape, and Texas Angels, and they're all in-house.

The Waterford at Fort Worth was very nice, but it was about $400 out of my price range. It was very clean and very nice with good food. I like the help. I actually got to meet the cook, and the lady that took me on a tour was very sweet. It’s right down the street from the malls and a lot of the eating facilities. It’s 2 minutes from my sister’s house which I tinker around doing yard work in.
They showed me 2 different rooms. The studio is nice and clean; I really like it for me. I visited during lunch time. Everybody seemed happy and was being waited on real well. There was plenty of parking, and they have covered parking. They had car parks for your specific spot, and mine was right outside my window. I could actually see where my car or motorcycle was being parked.

The Waterford was nice, and we looked at the two bedroom. My brother and his wife said it was nice; we could use the living room for your bedroom if you think that the bedrooms are small. The lightings were very nice. They have a nice restaurant, and the food was really good, but I thought it was expensive.

The Waterford at Fort Worth was very nice, very clean, and very modern. However, it wasn’t suitable for my dad because he needed more care than what I think they were capable of providing. It appeared that the residents were more independent than my dad. There's the choice of a small studio all the way up to a two-bedroom apartment. It was very nice. It would have met his needs, but the professional care was not in line with his physical limitations.

The Waterford at Fort Worth is very good. The people are very caring and take care of all your needs, like cleaning your room. The food is excellent, and they serve three meals a day. The only drawback with the place is the price: it’s expensive. They have so many good activities and offer services to take you to doctors' appointments and to run errands. This community is excellent as far as I’m concerned.

My mother would be moving in The Waterford next week. It was nice. The staff was nice. The price was comparable with the services offered. She had not moved in yet, but so far, we had been in touch with everyone that worked there. The rooms were nice and updated with nice amenities. They were nice and clean. They were newer than some other places. The refrigerator and the counter top were updated. The bathrooms were nice. They had activities like people played cards and bingo. They had field trips. They had some movie time offered, and they had worship services. They had staff 24/7.

I don't really like the meal schedule, but that is something I would have to completely change -- my schedule. I am not a morning person, and they start early, but this was the only thing that I was not pleased with. Otherwise, it was very nice, and we have a relative at the Waterford -- my husband's sister. It is very nice, the food is good, the apartments are adequate, and I hear good reports about it from other people who live there. The staff is very nice, very informative, and very helpful. I've seen one room with furniture in it, which is my sister-in-law's, and it seemed adequate. Their dining room is very nice. Basically, I am impressed with the activities and the help provided for people. There is a choir, there are trips that they take, and they have card games, Bingo, and music programs, so there's great variety of activities. The security seems adequate.

I was able to look at Waterford at Fort Worth, and that was very good too although it was a little far out. I looked at a studio, and it was small, but still very nice. It had a microwave, a refrigerator, and a big closet. They serve three meals a day too. I didn’t eat there, but it looked like they were good. The staff were great as well.

I found The Waterford at Fort Worth for my mom and this is a very nice place. Their rooms are spacious. The staff is friendly. They know every single person's name in the community. They take great care of my mom. They also invited us for lunch and we thoroughly enjoyed it. They have a nice restaurant where all the residents eat.

I have a number of friends who live or have lived at the Waterford, and their experiences (as well as my own when visiting) have been overwhelmingly favorable. The front desk is staffed by friendly people who greet residents and their loved ones by name, and the rest of the staff is very affectionate as well. The facility is very well-kept both indoors and out, and residents are treated to a number of activities that keep everyone entertained and amused. The Waterford offers a shuttle service to local grocery stores and pharmacies, which is extremely convenient for residents. There are also many nearby pharmacies that deliver prescriptions to the Waterford free of charge. The only complaint that I heard was about the lack of parking spaces, but the majority of residents do now own their own vehicles, so it's a moot point. Another major draw is the staff's dedication to providing entertainment and social opportunities. I have heard many stories about the ice cream socials, craft fairs, shopping trips, and game nights that are hosted regularly. The Waterford also has a very well-stocked media library, community computers and internet access, and laundry facilities. The only other thing is that rent is on the high end, but it is definitely justifiable on account of the quality residents can expect to enjoy.
