Westminster Communities

My wife and I moved here because everything was on one level, it was close to her family and they had a fitness center. She died shortly thereafter and I decided it was the place for me since it had all levels of care, a beautiful location, friendly employees and lots of entertainment. Over time I learned all was true and I was very lucky to be here. My sons live far away and they do not have to worry about me. Making friends is easy since we are all nearly the same age with common backgrounds. I am very fortunate to be here.

It is a very friendly community. I am very involved and love the people I associate with including the other residents and team members. I cannot live alone so this has been a wonderful experience. We are very fortunate to have Chaplin [name removed].

This is a big scary world, and I was alone and at the age that I knew I would someday need help. I came here often over the years and looked at the various choices for residence. One day I saw the one I wanted, jumped for it and so, here I am. I can get help whenever I need it, but at the same time be independent, I have made many new and wonderful friends and have many choices of activities and--I am happy. Services are usually on target and the employees are courteous and friendly and helpful.I love my home, my .community and my life. I am happy.

The residents,staff,and families are great!

My mother is a resident at Westminster Palms. She started in Independent Living and this summer she moved to Assisted Living. Most recently, she was evacuated by the Assisted Living staff because of hurricane Ian. The staff and administration of Westminster Palms has always been fantastic, kind, caring, effective and professional. It was an incredible relief for me to know that my mother was both safe and cared with kindness during Ian, when I was many hundreds of miles away. Thank you everyone at Westminster.

It's a friendly and beautiful place with lots of interesting things to do. I like our apartment. It has high ceilings and overlooks the water. It's new construction, so it has an open kitchen and a big bathroom and is nicely designed. It's a great place to live.

Very positive experience, would definitely recommend to friends or families looking for Assisted Living care.

I love it here. There could not be any more activities if they tried, they have a little bit of everything and they do whatever they can to get residents out of their rooms. The food is excellent as well. They do have housekeeping come in every other week and they will change the bed linens as well. I am very pleased with my experience.

The staff members here and the residents are extremely friendly that is one thing I love most about Westminster. Based on my experience so far I would absolutely recommend this community to other families.

I began exploring retirement communities 2 years ago. I discovered Westminster Shores in September 2021. [Name removed] in sales guided me through the process, all online. I never felt the need to fly to FL from [location removed] to check things out. She sent me a video of my present home, a lovely villa in Westminster Shores. The move from [location removed] to FL was a challenge but I arrived here safely. Everyone, staff and residents have been so kind and friendly. The menus are incredibly delicious. I've made a friend who was introduced to me by [name removed]. She lives right next door and we do everything together. This was the best decision of my life and I have a brother in [location removed] who was very impressed by my photos and he may follow me here soon.

This community was really good there was just another community at the time that I was more interested in.

The community is very well kept, the cleanliness is great. With the covid pandemic our loved one has opted out of going to the dining room and cooking for himself, but with the meals he has taken from the dining room have been excellent. He also opted out of the activities for now, so we don't have much experience with all they have to offer. The value for cost is excellent it is a wonderful place.

This is the very best value in assisted living. The administration and staff cares for the residents respectfully and kindly. It's a welcoming atmosphere.

Friendliness is one of their most outstanding features. Little bobbles and bumps happen, but all in all, Mom's been very pleased with them. She's getting ready to switch from assisted living to independent living, and she wanted to stay at Westminster Suncoast. One challenge that for some reason they've been unable to accommodate, I suspect because they're busy at that time in the evening - is she needs to have her evening meds around 6-7 pm, and they never give them to her before 9 pm. I've addressed that with them, and they make it happen for a couple of days and then it goes back to the way it was before. I understand they're busy and doing the best they can. Mom loves the food there. It's very good quality, and there's more than enough. I know they have plenty of activities available, but she's just not wanting to participate. It's taken her a while to adjust to community living. Although we wish it could cost less, it's still a good value. I've had the opportunity to see some of the other places around, and I've had outside people tell us this is the place we need to be. They are one of the best if not the best.

My husband and I have been residents at the Manor for 12+ years. We loved it when we moved in, we love it even more now. We have a saying..."We're not fancy. We're family." That describes life at the Manor very well. We offer everything from villas (freestanding homes) to apartments to mobile homes. The relationship of the residents to the staff is wonderful. Staff are all willing to help and go beyond their job description when needed. The food is delicious and the variety is satisfying. Cleanliness and maintenance of buildings and landscaping is top priority for those departments. There are so many activities of varying kinds that no one person could possibly do them all. Assisted living and nursing care are readily available also. The Manor isn't perfect, but If you are looking for a great place to spend these years of your life, my husband and I highly recommend Westminster Manor of Bradenton, FL.

Wife there in nursing home [date removed]. Care was very good. 15 day minimum charge steep. Billing and bookkeeping poor at best. Still waiting on refund of charge on pills I provided.Corporate office not much on customer service.

Everyone was very helpful and I begin feeling better almost immediately when the start of the occupational and physical therapy. The staff is very pleasant and enjoyed working with them. I thank them for my progress which enable me to go home feeling capable of handling myself at home.

We had a very informative visit with the sales director [name removed]. She was able to explain the ins and outs of a very import life decision. We were very impressed with all the new construction at the Shores . I would recommend a visit to anyone thinking of joining a continuous care retirement community. The sooner you plan the better.

It was just awesome. What they did for the residents was amazing, the groups and entertainment they brought in for them. I loved how clean and updated it was. Everything was just sparkling clean. It was Christian based, which is very important to me. I believe that's one of the reasons they were so good, because they have higher guidelines than some of the other places. And they provided more of a variety of care there, but I don't believe they had 24-hour nursing. We would have loved to have our loved one there. It was gorgeous, very nice, had an amazing library, offered art classes. Everything you could think of was provided there, with state-of-the- art equipment. They had retirement villas as well, and a pool for those who are able. The amenities were great. On our tour, they offered us some fingerling sandwiches and desserts, and even sent some home with us. Everybody was very knowledgeable. Anybody you asked a question either knew the answer right away or would find someone for you who did. I would recommend them. They were top notch. I would have loved to go there myself. The cost was the only thing stopping us.

I just had my first visit to our new medical office. I walked in and was greeted pleasantly. After giving my name and apartment number, I sat in the waiting area for about 5 minutes before called back to exam room where vitals and medical history were taken. Nurse Practitioner was wonderful. She listen, she examined, she explained, and then sent prescription to my regular pharmacy. I was back in my apartment in about 45 minutes. No waiting for appointment. No drive to MD office. Wonderful experience.
