Review

Windermere Memory Care has received mixed reviews from families who have had loved ones residing there. One reviewer expressed disappointment with the lack of advertised activities and amenities. According to this individual, residents seemed to merely wander aimlessly without any organized engagement. The reviewer also reported an unfortunate incident of theft, which was only resolved after threatening to involve the authorities. Furthermore, they were dissatisfied with the food provided at the facility, claiming that it did not match the quality showcased on Windermere Memory Care's social media.

This family member appreciated being shown the security camera footage in residents' rooms and receiving thorough explanations regarding COVID procedures and policies. The facility's cleanliness and maintenance were highly praised, instilling confidence in this reviewer.

Another family member shared their perspective on their cousin's stay at Windermere Memory Care. They mentioned encountering difficulties when attempting to reach their cousin due to the lack of phones in resident rooms. Despite this inconvenience, they expressed satisfaction with how well-treated their cousin seemed to be by the staff members. The private room provided was seen as a positive aspect of the facility, although it was noted that residents are required to furnish their own living spaces. Concerns were raised about limited interaction as the individual observed minimal engagement between staff and residents during visits.

The quality of food at Windermere Memory Care received positive feedback from this family member, highlighting that their cousin appeared to enjoy her meals and finished them entirely. Cleanliness remained a notable aspect of the facility during these visits as well; however, there seemed to be a lack of stimulating activities for residents based on observations made by this individual. Despite these concerns, the staff members were regarded as pleasant and caring towards their cousin. The necessity of purchasing a personal television for her room was mentioned, further indicating potential limitations in terms of entertainment options provided by the facility.

In terms of communication, this family member experienced difficulties when trying to contact Windermere Memory Care. While they received prompt calls from the facility during critical situations such as their cousin's unresponsiveness or contracting COVID-19, their own attempts to reach the front desk went unanswered. Despite these challenges, this reviewer considered Windermere Memory Care to be far from the worst option available, acknowledging that there might be other facilities with more issues than this one.

Overall, reviews for Windermere Memory Care are varied. Concerns about activities, amenities, and food quality have been raised by some individuals. However, positive feedback focused on the administrator's transparency and the facility's cleanliness. Additionally, staff members were generally seen as friendly and caring towards residents. The lack of phones in resident rooms and limited engagement were noted by a family member along with challenges in reaching the facility through phone calls.

Effective management of nutrition, hydration, and communication is crucial in patient care, with palliative care becoming vital in advanced stages to enhance comfort and quality of life while caregivers play a key role amidst the challenges posed by the disease.
