Windriver Place

Wonderful location. Friendly staff.

The size was good and not to big. The activities don't have a good variety or exciting for the residents, this may have to do with the pandemic. We were told there would be snacks in the middle of the day, and that didn't happen. It would have been nice to have drinks available during the day as well.

We chose Windriver Place because it came highly recommended to us. The room sizes here are bigger than what we were expecting them to be. Overall it has been a good experience and I would recommend them to others who are looking.

The community is a really nice place and the staff is kind and compassionate. Communication is good between the staff and our family they keep us well informed and up to date. I would recommend this community to others based on my experience.

I would recommend this community to others. Everybody seems to know each other and the community is very clean. Communication between the community and our family is very good and they keep us well informed and updated.

Windriver Place is like family. They treat my mom like she was a family member. The staff extends that same kindness to the family of residents. There has always been someone answering the phone when I call to inquiry about my mom.

It's a small community and the staff seems to be able to offer more attention to the residence due to this. The room sizes are average, my mom loves the food here, and offer a good variety. I would recommend this community to others.

I think that most of the staff really cared for the residents and it showed. I really liked the way the community was self contained, its lay out, and the security of building. She wasn't terribly impressed with the food but they did offer variety At the end, when she wasn't eating a lot, they went out of the way to made homemade milkshakes for her. I thought it was a really nice size, not too big . I got the impression that the caregivers saw her as an individual person not "just another resident". It was the right place for her to be at that time in her life.

[Name removed] contacted me right away and was anxious to answer my questions about finding just the right place for my mother-in-law. She was friendly, assuring and informative. She even was willing to meet us to show us around outside Windriver Place, and let us look in the windows so we could get some idea in this COVID world of what their residence is like.

In the beginning the communication was really good. Unfortunately, the building is in lock down so we can't visit right now. We chose the community because it is located really close to our house and we liked that it is small. Everyone is friendly and seems nice. We like that there is a Nurse Practitioner that visits the community weekly and she keeps us informed. My brother is sleeping a lot but he is generally depressed so he doesn't want to participate in activities. The NP is working with the community on that with medications to help him. We like that the community is warm and cozy. It has an indoor courtyard for the residents to enjoy. The only thing I would say is that the menu has a very limited selection.

From the moment we entered the facility, we knew this was a place for our mom. The staff were friendly and the room was "homey" though small but just right for her. We appreciated that the nurse manager advocated for her to be there and worked with us to develop a care plan for her complex needs. Once a resident, the staff treated her like a friend. They not only cared for her but also sat and visited, understanding the physical limitations she had. Any concerns we had were addressed immediately. The activities available are interactive and meant for residents to meet each other. The activities director strived to get to know each resident personally and to get them involved. We also appreciated the small facility all on one floor. From maintenance staff to executive director, they could all provide answers or direct us to the appropriate place. Safety is also another priority, which was very much appreciated. We could not ask for a better place for our mom to have spent her final days and we know she appreciated Windriver Place.

We were greeted by friendly staff and residents. The facility is in a lovely setting, all on one level. The rooms were perfect for our needs. In the event of extended memory care we feel it won’t fit our dad’s Needs.

Thank you for all you do for my Dad, ! I live out of country, but spent a couple of days at Windriver in August. EVERY staff member knew my Dad's name! They new what he liked to drink at all his meals, they brought him his favourite juice or a fresh coffee. The care home is Clean, smells good and really comfortable place to live and nice for family to come for a visit. Staff was very welcoming-always. Staff always caring and patient with him. Going home was less painful for me ,because I know he is in a beautiful place to live and enjoy and, I have peace of mind that he is receiving TLC in his last years.

Lovely little place, with only about 40 residents. Much smaller than Mom is used to (I don't know if that's good or bad!) But the apartments are way too small. [name removed] was very helpful and I liked her a lot. But the small apartments and the distance from my home are definite obstacles for this place.

Quaint, clean and homey environment. Staff was courteous, friendly and knowledgeable. Mom thought the one bedroom apartment was adequate for her needs and she really liked the walk in shower. We have several other locations to visit so if others seem as good as this one we will have some tough choices when it gets down to making a selection.

[Removed] was very accommodating and met us for our 2nd visit on her day off. I am very pleased with the facilities and the services they offer.

Just from taking a tour here, they seem to be exceptional. They would’ve been my top choice for my Mom, however they don’t offer a provision to help with payment if she were to run out of money and it’s strictly assisted living so continuum of care is not available. The floor plan layout was very open with large, central living areas. The general atmosphere was positive and exceptional. The staff was very friendly and open and they were all interacting with the residents from what I could see. It was nice, just didn’t fit our specific needs.

The care staff here is very kind and Mom seems happy, content, and taken care of. So, all around, I’d say it’s going well. The food is good and there are tons of options to choose from. My Mom raves about it all the time, she really likes it. Everything I’ve seen is kept pretty clean and housekeeping comes by once or twice a week to clean the room. There’s a huge calendar filled with activities like scenic drives, exercise classes, family nights, bingo, and movie nights. There’s really a big variety for everyone to participate in. I would recommend them.

My mother lives in Windriver Place, and it is just the perfect place for her. I love the atmosphere of the community, and despite the large turnover rate in the staff, they have always been great to us; very understanding, caring, and accommodating. It’s a very home-like, comfortable community. The food is always good here as well. The chef is always on target with taste and portion sizes. They also have a lot of activities for the residents such as art projects, outings, and family events. Overall, Windriver has been perfect, and I would recommend the community to others.

I toured the Windriver Place community. It was a nice and clean community. The staff was friendly. I that it was too small of a community for my parents. I thought it was also overly expensive.
