It was lovely and affected many fine amenities. However it just haven’t the right feel for me at this time.

Very nice facilities. Good location for me. Apartments just okay but better than some other facilities.

Critical

promises halfway met

Re the assisted living facility: The food is good enough, the food service is terrible. Dispensing of medication is generally accurate but not always. The call button on the pendant is always answered, but sometimes with a long delay (like, half an hour). The advertised weekly bed change happens usually but not always. Nursing station is unnecessarily noisy in the late evening. Residents generally say this place is better than most assisted-living places.

Wellington is a life saver for my mom

Mom is treated extremely well in Wellington. She was given food when she was out once for a meal. The facility is exceptionally clean. We have enjoyed several meals with mom and enjoyed the food.

Very happy here

We are very happy here. Also, we can still get around for ourselves. Answers are based on that. Apartments are large with large walking closets, washer and dryer in apartment, apartment cleaning full kitchen. Diner meals and more. One other big item for us is the indoor parking. They are very responsive to my needs. Food is very good.
