Critical Testimonials

Some reviewers have noted concerns about consistency in care:

“We think when it comes to the medical side of things, there is some inconsistency.” – Anonymous

“The rooms at this community appears to be very nice, and at first we were told certain things that were going to be happening but those things did not end up happening. Our loved one was supposed to receive a specific type of care, but we later found out she was actually receiving a totally different type of care. There would also be times that no care takers were present. The food at Wyndham Lakes is just okay, a lot of the time it was served cold.” – Anonymous
