Overall Review of Elderwood Assisted Living at Wheatfield

common 7 reviews mention this

Food quality is mixed

Dining experiences run from praise to serious complaints.

Several reviews describe food arriving late or not tasting well, with examples like watery or overcooked meals, limited choices, and food that residents felt was inedible.

Staffing and call access vary

Residents and families describe inconsistent staffing and response times.

Some reviews praise staff as kind, caring, and responsive, with families saying concerns are handled promptly and nurses/aides stay accessible. Other reviews are much more negative, describing short staffing, long waits to get help, and delayed or missed responses to button calls. Several of the negative accounts also mention trouble with medication handling or communication, especially for rehab patients and on weekends.

caveat 3 reviews mention this

Memory care is a concern

Families mention difficulty finding memory care.

At least two reviews say the community did not have a memory care unit, which affected their ability to keep a loved one there as needs changed. One additional review also describes being told memory care was available at first, then needing to move after realizing it wasn’t. If memory-related care is a requirement, reviews suggest confirming the exact care model before committing.

common 12 reviews mention this
