As good as any
I believe families should know that they will need to be present and helpful to their loved one. If the person is not fully able of making their own sound decisions, and is not able to advocate for themselves, it might not be the place for them. They will need to be able to clean their own apartment and call if housekeeping doesn't come in as scheduled weekly. I think the nursing staff has some that care some that do not, and don't want to be bothered. I would recommend this facility only for a person whom is very mobile, not beginning to have any memory issues and is vocal about their needs.

Again memory care needs improvement for these patients. Memory care needs more staff and activities.
The head director is cold and has terrible communication skills. She makes these patients sit all day and doesn't want them walking around. It's like a concentration camp. The assistant living facility is very nice. Memory care needs a swift shakeup! Please do something.

I see changes everytime I come. They appear to be striving for better which is always good. Although it seems certain privileges have been omitted for the time being, i.e. bus service to the store. Also exercise class doesn't have a teacher now which the seniors need. Other than that I'm hoping to see things trend upward and the new management bring good changes.

Tour experience
Waterford Estates is a very nice facility. I just do not agree with the way that we were treated. We were in the parking lot ready to put a deposit down and someone called and said they would not take my loved one because she required too much care. I was very up front with them during the tour and I felt that they should have said that then rather than calling us and abruptly telling us. I do not like the way it was handled.

Waterford: the caring place for seniors
This community is great. It's a very nice place, beautiful view, my friend has her own porch to sit on and enjoy outdoor time. It's always clean and is a wonderful place to live. They take great care of the patients and make sure they're secure. A few times staff was a little harsh/rude when my friend was having issues with tv, etc and needed help. At times, I had to step in and do/say something. But overall, they're really good here. Repairs took awhile to fix when she first moved in. The food is good and quite healthy, good variety. There were a couple of times when she was charged for meals taken to her room that she said she didn't take, I'm still not sure what happened with that. They offer activities, she's only done the exercise so far. They also have church services here and she goes every week. They have a swimming pool as well. Communication with the family is great. I was sold on this place from the beginning, but my friend wanted to look at other places to be sure and we did. This was the best choice. I would definitely recommend them to family and friends. This would be my first choice for myself, should I ever need it.

The community is conveniently location for our family and all the staff who we have encountered lately are very nice and friendly. All of the medical assistance that our loved one has used has been very good. The value for the money is good . We have not had a meal there ourselves but from what our loved one says she does not complain so we assume they have to be good.

It's actually very similar to her previous apartment that was not a senior living community, so it reminds her of her home.

about Waterford Estates Senior Living

Waterford Estates Senior Living offers Studio, 1 Bedroom and 2 Bedrooms. Learn more.

A Place for Mom has scored Waterford Estates Senior Living 9.4 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
