I visited this facility

We had a very excellent tour of Westminster-Canterbury of the Blue Ridge. I'm impressed with the place. Some of the rooms were nice, some of them were vacated, and some were rehabbed, getting ready for their next resident. We've put a deposit down, and as far being on the waiting list, they're giving us vouchers for several dinners and lunches there, but I have not eaten there yet. They have a pool, a gym, a nice library, walking paths, community rooms, gaming rooms, a nice cafeteria, and a pub.

Westminster-Canterbury of the Blue Ridge is the cream of the crop. Everything is top of the line as far as very wide and beautiful architecture going from cottages of several different sizes to units within the building of many different sizes. They have physical therapists there. By paying the deposit to be in their Compass Club for future openings, you can eat there six times a year for free, use the facilities, and go on trips, but you have to pay the fee. That really gives you a chance to step inside and know w…

Westminster-Canterbury of the Blue Ridge is a very nice community. It's a little more remote. It offered a reasonable price for the size of the units that they have. The rooms were smaller, but they were attractive. I saw that the people were very fine and the woman who gave us the tour spent a lot of time with us. We even met one of the residents who invited us over to her place and the residents are very friendly. We had lunch and the food was excellent.

I have been consistently impressed with this facility. They offer tiered levels of care and my grandparents started in an apartment with minimal care, but as they aged and their health deteriorated, were transferred to an assisted-living situation with a higher level of supervision. The facility also offers a health care unit that provides even more extensive care, which has been especially helpful as a temporary stop when returning to WCBR following a short hospital stay.The staff at WCBR are dependably friendly, …
