Ensemble Senior Living is the one my mom's really interested in, since it's closer to where my sister is and where I live. Ensemble used to be Wedgwood. It is independent living. The staff was friendly and definitely helpful. We got to see 3 different floor plans. They had a studio, a 1-bedroom, a 2-bedroom, and a 3-bedroom, but we only looked at the studio and the 1-bedroom. It's definitely spacious and everything is new. It's been totally renovated because this particular building had a fire a couple of years ago, and it's been totally redone and remodeled, so it looks brand new. They always serve a Continental breakfast. They have an in-home theater, a conference room, a library, a walking trail, and a dog park. It's actually really nice. They don't serve any meals other than just a simple Continental breakfast.

I am very excited to say "I am moving into this wonderful facility as soon as my home is sold". I have visited my friend that lives here many times and look forward to living in this secure , pleasant place. I enjoy feeding the fish and the birds and just sitting out in the well cared for surroundings. I have never seen such a beautiful place to live. I want to call it my home.

lived here 2 months. so far so good... there are new owners that are starting new activites and rooms. they just started a new bible study and church service... which is GREAT. There still needs to be some work done in the halways but they say they are still working on it. i'm excited to see what happens here in the next few months.

This place has improved, but it seems the new owner is more interested in the appearance of this place then the comfort of the residents, my mom is in her 90's and not happy that sat church has to be held downstairs now, the restaurant has a new so call chef, my mom says the prices went up but the food sucks and the service slow, when i ate with her it took 25 mins to get waited on, and 10 more mins for cold food, the residents say the chef is in the office more than he is in the restaurant, and has been seen coming out of the manager's apt on the 9th floor early in the morning, my mom is ready to move after 12 years there she is upset about all the rules and the poor food, and upset about having to sit in chairs that people pee on, im moving her out ASAP

Thank you for taking the time to communicate with us, we strive on constant improvement. We have not cancelled church on the 11th floor. We are willing to temporarily set up chairs until the new room is completed. We are building a new room on the first floor that will be able to accommodate 30-40 people and comfortable seating. A few of the organizers for church has decided to no longer volunteer due to personal reasons. We want to offer as many services and amenities as possible. We did hire a new Chef and we are training a new wait staff. We are very excited about the new addition to the property vs outsourcing it. The new Chef does stay on site multiple days per week, due to the early hours of preparing fresh food for the residents. We will work diligently together to ensure a speedy service for our residents and guest. The Chef is an employee of Wedgwood so he does work out of our offices to balance his tickets and daily deposits.
We also purchased new furniture for the lobby for additional and more comfortable seating. If a resident has an accident we promptly pull the piece of furniture and have it professionally cleaned. Unfortunately this is a common occurrence at most Senior Communities.
We have comment cards available at the office and restaurant for all comments and feedback we appreciate both positive and negative so we can constantly improve. Our goal is to ensure our residents are happy and comfortable in the home we are providing.

I went to go visit just recently and I went to go eat at the restaurant that they have. I was so disgusted of all the little nats and bugs they had in Restaurant. My family couldn't even finish their meal. They need pest control immediately.

Thank you for taking the time to visit Wedgwood Senior Community. We apologize for your negative experience and would like to invite you back for another visit. We have a scheduled pest control visits each week. We have also hired a wonderful new Chef. He brings with him over 20 years of experience in the food industry. We have new owners and are excited about the new face lift of Wedgwood Senior Community. We strive to go above and beyond to create a comfortable and enjoyable environment for our residents.

Great security was important to me and I have found it here. In cases of emergencies it can't be beat. They are here within minutes. Great residents. Best of all it is affordable which is important if you are on a fixed income.

East Ridge Residence was not clean and the hallways smelled. They had several leaks and there were carpets in the hallways that were wet. They offered my mother a place for $1000/month but she declined because the atmosphere was depressing. The staff were good but it was not somewhere she wanted to live.

I chose Wedgwood Apartments because it is less expensive including the utilities. I love the grounds outside. They have a waterfall and a pool. There are a lot of trees and foliage. They have a walking path which is pristine and very nice. Also within the complex, there is a bank, a beautiful restaurant and a beauty shop. I'm staying in an efficiency apartment, which is spacious. I got a room for two twin beds. I also have a kitchen where I can fix my own meals if I want to. The staff also are nice and pleasant. We also have a lot of activities here like bingos and some classes. They have entertainers come in and play the grand piano in the lobby. Another plus factor for me is that their shuttle bus has a lift which can accommodate my big electric chair, thus I can go places with the other residents when they go to places. I'm pretty happy with this place and would recommend this community to others.
