I visited this facility

We toured Westminster-Canterbury on Chesapeake Bay. The best thing about them is the ocean, and I can see it from the room that I chose. My daughter described it as a posh resort area. It did not feel like a nursing home or anything like that, or an old people's home. It was very nice. The staff was adorable. She took a lot of time, took us everything that we wanted to see there, and explained how everything worked. She took a great deal of time showing us around. She was great. The cleanliness and structure o…

This is a fabulous faith-based community with a wonderful foundation that helps people come in (if they qualify and can't afford it) and keep the residents here with 5-star healthcare, even if they run out of money at no fault of their own. Everyone is busy and happy. We moved here from out of state and it took us a long time to find it but it was the best decision ever -- and what a gift to our kids who will never have to take us in or put us someplace where we don't want to be. We are ecstatic about liv…

Don’t let the vast marble floors of independent living confuse you- the nursing home is what you would find anywhere and must deal with the same obstacles, lack of staff, high turnover, unrealistic expectations, cold “ unknown” food!!! Staff is overstretched and can’t possibly attend to as many residents as they are expected Perhaps the stress on staff leads to the negative environment

I know people in the assisted living of Westminster-Canterbury on Chesapeake Bay Retirement Community. They're 5-star, they're really expensive but you definitely get your money's worth. Usually when I go there, there were people in the reception desk and then my friend invites me for lunch, so I saw the wait staff. Those were the only groups of people that I see but they're very nice. The food is very good, it's excellent. They have a wide variety of choices. The rooms were beautiful and w…

I visited this facility

Westminster-Canterbury on Chesapeake Bay is a really nice place. It's on Virginia Beach and it's a really classy place, therefore it's quite expensive. The girl that works there gave us the tour and she was fabulous. I talked to her just the other day and she's very good at what she does. They have a variety of apartments and our only interest would be the one-bedroom. They have everything you need and want. It's just top right. The one thing that I really liked is being on the beach, becau…

I was in rehab at Westminster-Canterbury. It was excellent. The staff was excellent. However, it was completely out of our price range. The food was excellent. They had a full range of activities. The rooms were clean and well decorated. It was beautiful.
