Our Families Experience

When it comes to the meals and dining, as my Mom required a special diet and the dining room was NOT as accommodating as I was led to believe.. We gave the value for cost a 3 but only because my Mom's stay was so short. Also, want to put a HUGE plug in for [name removed]. She went WAY above and beyond expectations when it came to getting my Mom into the facility and care while she was there. My wife and I appreciate greatly what she did.

Great fit for my Dad.

Great facility with people who care about your loved ones. The time my dad spent at Gencare was wonderful. Not too large or small. He not only received a lot of attention from the staff, but Gencare also has all the amenities of a larger facility but was just the right size for him to call home.

Tour experience

I don't know why Gencare is considered a direct competitor of [facility name removed]. We knew as soon as we walked in for our tour that we didn't like it. There was a terrible smell, we didn't care for location, and we hated the floor plan, both the units and entire facility.

My loved one was cared for at this facility for awhile. It's a beautiful place. It's very clean and welcoming. The staff is very nice and warm. I just feel like it may be a better fit for Assisted Living than it is for Memory Care needs. That could just be our preference/experience. I would still recommend them to family and friends to check out and decide for themselves.

Excellent Assisted Living Experience

We have had a good experience with Gencare. They staff are responding appropriately to my family member's medical issues - transporting him, taking care of him, and keeping me informed. He's enjoying the amenities and all they're doing for him. He tells me he really appreciates that the food is good, and the social aspect has been very good. And he has a one-bedroom apartment that he enjoys living in.

Warm and inviting like home

If you want a community where your loved one is going to feel like they are part of a family then this is the place to bring them. I shopped around and looked at a lot of communities and here we just feel like family. They are really open and great with both of us. It is a small community and because of this the director greets us all by name and every other person and family member that the director sees. The front desk is great and they are always happy and open to everyone that comes in. They are just simply amazing. Well lit and all natural lighting and the garden is immaculate.

Wyncote Place Rocks

Wyncote Place treated my father with the utmost respect and care. The whole staff treated him like he was family. They keep my family informed of any issues as they occurred. It was a very hard decision to place my Dad in a Memory Care facility however I believe it was the best decision I made. My Dad has recently pasted but I know he received the best care available, provided by the best staff available. Thanks Wyncote Place!

Older but homey

I toured this facility while looking for a place for my loved one. However, I didn’t choose this community because it was older and I was looking for a brand new place. The décor was okay and it felt homey. The person who gave me the tour was friendly and knowledgeable. What I really liked about the rooms is the layout. I would recommend this facility to other families.

My friend's care and happiness.

The care at this community. The staff is always caring and friendly. The menu is good with a very nice variety for her to choose from. She likes being involved with the outdoors and plants. We do like the environment and she seems to be very happy and content with the other residents. We would recommend the care at this community for other families

So far so good

Mom is still adjusting to living at this community. They do keep the community clean and the grounds are nice. The memory care area is a locked down small area. The assisted living area is larger and a little nicer. We have been working through some minor issues such as her clothes coming up missing. The staff are nice and they encourage her to participate in some of the daily activities.

This is a very beautiful community. The person that took us on tour was nice, however they did not seem very knowledgable about the community. This community did not seem very active when we visited. They did not have an apartment available that would fit my loved ones needs.

Better Place To Care For My Mom

This community is a much better choice to have placed my mother in for her dementia. The staff was nice when we toured the community they provided us with a lot of information about pricing and packages . I feel my mom would have gotten the one on one attention and help that she is in need of. The community looked clean and the residents seemed nice but since it wasn't my decision my sister chose another location.

Mom is now a resident at Madrona Park. She is meeting new people and becoming settled. The facility is cleaning, the staff is friendly and helpful, and we are happy with the care services and daily activities. My brother is handling the financial piece, so I'm unqualified to address that question.
