We moved here from Seattle in May 2021 and after a brief adjustment, we've been very pleased…read more Housekeeping alternates from changing our bed linens, to a thorough cleaning of floors, dusting and cleaning both bathrooms. Employees are well trained, friendly and efficient! Initially, the dining and kitchen staff had vacancies, but that has changed. Daily continental breakfasts are provided, with Wednesday offering a variable of scrambled eggs, bacon and sausage. Every other Sunday a hearty brunch is provided and is excellent! The evening dinner is also provided in the Dining Room. Depending upon personal preference, a menu is completed the day before and returns to the kitchen. Staffing can alter whether it will be a buffet style or seated dining. Soup, salad, entrèe, and a variety of sides and a dessert is included as a part of the monthly rent. Access to Doctors Making House Calls, Legacy Physical Therapy, a gym and a heated pool are also available on site. Clubs range from Book Clubs, Veteran's group, off campus events, etc. all add to create a thriving environment!

My dad was a resident in the independent living community at Waltonwood for six months, until he…read morepassed away. He loved it. The staff is exceptional, always friendly, always treating the residents with courtesy, respect and affection. The residents go out of their way to welcome newcomers and help them acclimate through an ambassador program. I often joined dad on Friday afternoons for "happy hour" in the cafe. Although he didn't drink, he enjoyed a glass of cider and socializing with other residents. I made as many friends as he did and really enjoyed visiting, especially for concerts, special events and dinner. Highly recommended.

The grounds are spotless and the outdoor space for the residents is inviting an accessible. There are always activities and at least a weekly outing. The aides and nursing staff are friendly and helpful. My mom has not been here long but everyone on staff has been more than accommodating to her needs. The food is delicious. We live close by and are excited to take this new journey with the staff of the Reserve. If you have any questions, please reach out to me.

I moved here because of the friendliness of the people -- residents and staff. That continues to be…read morethe norm. Covid was handled beautifully with masking required and meal delivery to apartments. Unfortunately, things haven't bounced back as much as hoped, impacted by short staffing and staff turnover. During the time of lowest staffing, menus and meal preparation went downhill; however, things are improving significantly. Staffing situations have also caused maintenance and housekeeping to be below par, but the light at this particular tunnel is beginning to be visible. Parking remains abysmal for residents. Improvements have been promised for months but nothing has changed. There are many opportunities for activities, movies, special dining events, vaccinations, and others. I will remain a happy member of the Reserve community.

Awesome skilled nursing facility companies, compassionate & caring for their residents.read more

Let me start by saying SOME of the staff there are very nice, friendly and helpful, others act like…read morethey are doing you a favor to check on you. As for everything else, absolutely horrible. Do not put your loved one in this facility. My Dad was admitted on a Friday and he had just had a liver biopsy in the hospital for which we were waiting for the results. His primary got the results, it is stage 4 kidney cancer and his primary called an oncologist for a consultation appointment for the following Tuesday. This facility told me ... they would not transport him, that he is under their physician's care now and they don't go by the previous primary care physician's orders. Their physician makes an appearance every Wednesday and he would see my Dad then and determine the next steps. I was livid! You don't just cancel an appointment with an oncologist when you have a serious life threatening diagnosis but that is exactly what we had to do. Now someone who has never seen my Dad will have to determine of his own accord what my Dad needs and may or may not say he should see an oncologist. Even if he does determine that, a nurse told my mother it could take a month or more to get an oncologist appointment. Please do not use this facility or you can say good-bye to any doctor you have been seeing throughout your life. That relationship will be severed. They have over 100 patients in this place so for a doctor to visit the facility one day a week, you cannot get quality care and attention. I will be pulling my Dad out of here because I will not let him lay here and die. And, if that is not enough for you to avoid this place like the bubonic plague, it sits next to a noisy railroad track so you get blasting train horns all day and night. And the whole ambiance is drab and depressing.

My mother-in-law just passed away in this facility. She passed from complications following a…read morebrain bleed from a fall under their "care." This was after she got kicked in the stomach by another resident, her purse was stolen, and she was neglected and ignored by many. She never received a documented care plan and all we experienced was routine shoulder shrugging. There are a lot of sad parts of this long story but few are as pathetic as the fact that the only time we feel their sense of urgency is now, on Yelp where they're suddenly interested in talking. That says everything to our family about this facility's priorities.

Families, please do your research…read more What I witnessed at this facility was a huge gap between what was promised and what was delivered in terms of care. The administration is not only poorly managed but seems indifferent to the well-being of its residents. The turnover rate for staff is alarmingly high, which speaks volumes about the toxic work environment and lack of training or support provided to employees. As a result, the level of care my mother received was inconsistent at best, and at worst, neglectful. Some of the staff were caring people, without a doubt, but staff were frequently overwhelmed, confused and unfamiliar with residents due to turnover. Communication from the administration to families was almost nonexistent. When I reached out with concerns, I was met with indifference or vague reassurances that were never followed through on. Clearly, the main concern of the administration is profits. This is not the kind of care anyone deserves, especially our senior loved ones who should be treated with dignity and respect.
