Westminster-Canterbury on Chesapeake Bay

Geraldine

I'm a resident of Westminster Canterbury Chesap, and the place is like a five-star hotel. The staff is excellent, but the food is not so good. They don't buy quality meats and things like that. The activities are wonderful, and I enjoy doing creative writing. We're currently doing a massive re-organizing and finalizing things here right now.

I live here and absolutely love it. Moving to Westminster Canterbury is the best decision I ever made. I never dreamed that retirement communities could be like this. I feel like I'm on a cruise ship that never leaves the dock.

It is lovely at Westminster, but it’s a different situation; it’s a CCRC. We live in the apartment here, but at the moment we don’t need any care. There staff is excellent and hardworking, I love the staff work ethic, friendly and they’re great. They bring the symphony in, lectures, they have dances, individual programs for athletics like cooking, and they have exercise facility, two swimming pools, and they have picnics outside. The food is fine and adequate; it’s a cafeteria type situation, but they do have a formal room. They have very special dinner program on the weekends; they have a variety, and the rooms are fine.

The staff at West Minister is perfect. The place has a swimming pool and two restaurants, and one of them is big. It's very pleasant and offers a lot especially for people who want to be on the beach.You can have your own apartment according to what you choose, which can be a one-bedroom or two bedroom, and whether you want to look out the waters or not. They even have hairdressers that come in twice a week.

I went with my friend a few times to pay a visit to her grandmother. From what i have seen the facility was kept very clean, and the workers seemed like they cared about the residents. It is a very comfortable place to be. My friend's grandmother room was set up so that she can feel at home as much as possible. The outside of the facility had a nice garden, and sitting area. The grass, and bushes were kept cut, and trimmed. This facility is very spacious. I never heard my friend's grandmother complain about any mistreatment from the nurse's, or the aids at the facility, nor have I noticed anything that showed a sign of neglect. There was an odor that was in the hallways each time I went to visit, but I never could figure out were it came from, because like I said to me it was a pretty clean place.

When I first went to visit my friend Beverley at Wesminster Canterbury, I was immediately blown away by how wonderful the community was. The facility was bright, clean, and new, and the staff was warm and friendly. I didn't run into a single staff member who was grumpy or who wasn't happy to see the residents. I also had the opportunity to sample the food, which was delicious. Westminster Canterbury is located on a very nice stretch of beach and there are stairs in the back, making it easy for the residents to take walks on the beach whenever they please. Many of the rooms of the residents look out over the beach which is a great view. There are are a number of great facilities in the complex, including a library and a gift shop. There are also concerts being played regularly at the grand piano in the lobby. There's a bank inside the complex for the convenience of the residents. I would be very pleased to have a relative stay here and I wouldn't hesitate to put them here because I know that this is a great community full of friendly people and a great assortment of amenities. The only red flag that I have is that there is a lack of minorities in residents. I don't think I've ever seen a black or Asian resident there and I don't know if this is due to coincidence or due to them not being open to minorities? But that would make this place undesirable for minorities or for those who want some diversity in the residents they're living with.
