They take care of the people well. They go out of there way to help people, wherever they need help. The food that they serve, they go above and beyond, with the different times that they offer meals. The transportation system could be improved, for store visits, and outings.

Twelve years ago, I visited Whealdon Estates in hopes of finding a facility where I could be comfortable, safe, relaxed, and cared for. When I entered the building there was a uniqueness regarding how I was immediately greeted and welcomed. Therefore, one week later I became a resident at Whealdon Estates and would not dare consider any other place to live. Twelve years later, that same atmosphere resonates throughout our building today and is why I always refer to Whealdon as “My Home Away From Home”. Our Manager, exhibits an attitude of professionalism, yet with tenderness, devotion, and compassion. She requires her entire staff to replicate those same behaviors. As a result, the food is delicious, the building is clean, the activities are fun and entertaining, and suggestions are heard and addressed. Without hesitation I strongly recommend Whealdon Estates and applaud our Manager and her entire team for the splendid and matchless job that they do for all of us.

Mother lived at Whealdon Estates for last 4+ years. The staff was exceptional in every way. The facility is top notch. The residents truly have a community. The activities are plentiful, varied, and appropriate. When Mom’s health declined rapidly, the staff adapted to her needs, kept family informed, worked well with in-home hospice, and never failed to put Mom’s needs as the highest priority. They displayed a level of empathy that is all too rare.

It has been a wonderful experience working with the team at Whealdon. The staff treats eachother like family, and they extend that same mentality to their residents. I was amazed to find out how long they have maintained the same staff members. It shows how happy they are with where they work. And Chef has the most amazing food ever!

My name is Glenn Dale Fontenot aka Glenn, A Band Of One. I have been providing musical entertainment to the residents of the Whealdon Estates faculty in Baton Rouge, LA, by-monthly, for over five years. I have always noted that the staff is caring, friendly, very attentive, and most of all they give the utmost respect to the residents. While I am only there a couple of hours every other month the residents are always very happy and comfortable in that environment. Ms. [name removed], [name removed], [name removed], and all the staff are the most pleasant to work with of all the retirement entities I frequent. I have no doubt your loved ones will be well cared for by big hearted individuals in a first class facility when alternative living best suits your/their needs.

I had the pleasure of visiting the community during breakfast. I must say the chef did a shrimp benedict that was to die for! If I could just come to eat every morning I will. Go tour and try the meals for yourself. I will surely be going back, I know a friend that lives there!

Whealdon Estates has given me the ability to live a comfortable life. I have been able to maintain my animals, which is important to me. I have made really good friends here and we have a really good time together. The activities are surprising and entertaining. I am content living here. The staff has been very helpful and answered all my silly questions.

Even though I was only looking for preliminary information and was trying to do this remotely, the sales staff was accommodating and responsive. I was only able to do a partial virtual tour and a telephone interview because technical logistics on my end. Still, I got a good feel of the property and was even given an invitation to visit a sister property in my area.

What we really like about the place is how the residents will come up to you without being prompted. They engage in conversation, they are so friendly and that is very important to us. The residents have their own voice and the staff actually listen to them. Anytime there are concerns they address them quickly and solve the issues. It does not have that sterile hospital feel to is, it was warm and welcoming. They have the usual activities like bingo, arts and crafts, mind stimulating games, physical activities and movie nights. We especially like how they have separate rooms foe everything. They have a library, a chapel, movie room, music room, activity room. A separate gathering room for additional activities on the second floor. They have a physical therapy room where the residents can have PT, OT and speech therapy. They also have a big dining room. Our aunt likes best that when she goes down to get PT that the machines and staff are there, and she does not have to wait on anybody. This community is just not a great place when everything is going great, it is a great place because it still gives you that confidence that your loved one is in good hands even when things might not be going well.

The staff are dedicated and compassionate with the residents. The staff is always making sure that the residents go to the activities. The food is excellent and they have a lot of choices for entrees and everyone is very happy. We have a whole sheet of activities every day to pick from bingo, kickball, chair work outs, coloring and more for the residents to pick from. We also celebrate birthdays of the residents. I would recommend this community for your loved ones. I love the staff and the people that run this place. They are very aware of everything going on. I rate it A+.

I thought Whealdon Estates was nice. And what they provided was good. I just think it really needed some updating.
Whealdon Estates had the structure of being a hotel experience. You come in, and there’s a great room, which is very nice. But to get to your individual room, you go down a long hall, like you would in a hotel. The outside experience was missing for my loved one. Which was especially important to us during Covid. We didn't want her having to walk past other people in the hallway. She wouldn't have been able to garden here, which she really enjoys. The tour itself was good. The person that met with us and took us around was very friendly and helpful. The facility just wasn’t what she was looking for. She was looking for less of a hotel experience and more of a homey feel with outdoor space.
I like it here, and I have recommended this community to others. I like my Apt. and it's quiet here. I am able to come and go as I choose. The director is very nice and I feel blessed to know her. Communication is very good and they return calls quickly.

I looked at other places and I liked the way they handled everything when I came to Whealdon Estates. They explained everything perfectly and were very friendly and helpful. The location was great as well from my family. I would recommend to others looking. One of the only issues we have had is they cannot keep a chef and also we run out of milk a lot, so we can only get one glass a day.

Whealdon Estates is a great fit for our loved one, they do offer a lot of activities, before COVID they had bingo, arts and crafts, and exercise classes every day. Our loved one enjoyed the ice cream snacks in the afternoon when they would offer them. They really do try their best to keep the residents active and engage, as well as encourage them to come out of their rooms. We loved the people which sold us at first, the residents and staff were always open and greeted every body.
