Expected better

Delaney is a very large facility with good facilities. I felt it was somewhat under staffed and there seemed to be a lack of communication between the staff at shift changes. This was mainly what I experienced with the nursing staff in the dementia ward.

our family's experience

The Delaney is a very nice facility. The food is very good according to my mother-in-law. We have had to report a water leak and fraying carpet, but overall things are going well.

Phenomenal Place for your loved ones.

They are excellent in everything. Director for the Dementia/Alzheimer's which is [name removed] she is amazing! She is a 10 plus! She is doing a fantastic job with her residents! Plus they keep their residents busy and they are very caring and loving toward them. They are the only facility out of 5 different ones that I had my mother in that takes their Dementia/Alzheimer's out in a bus once a week to do something different. They have 3 choices on meals and know one does that with their residents that have Dementia

Review for The Delaney at Lake Waco

1. The overall experience has been good 2. The facility is very clean 3. Most of the staff is wonderful 4. Mom get great care 5. The admin staff are good as far as I know. Once she moved in we don't really see them much 6. I feel we were mislead on food. They assured us the had gluten free but from some issues mom has had it's not truly gluten free. Ex: the bread may be gluten free but when it's warmed or toasted with other bread it is no longer gluten free - it is contaminated for someone with gluten issues.

Review for The Delaney at Lake Waco

My personal observations are that the staff doesn't communicate well as to the needs of some of the patients. My wife used hearing aids and the medical staff didn't know she needed help putting them in and taking them out. When I first brought them in they were stored in a medical room. I had to tell the person in charge of the wing where they were being stored and no one got them to her. [name removed]suffered a fall and had to be hospitalized. She got 6 stitches on the side of her head. No one knows why she fell
