Disappointing Experience

Director [name removed]y with no reason, and hired a fired nurse/manager from another facility with no experience to be a director [name removed] (never got her card) made absolutely no sense. He was a wonderful, interactive, and caring director with staff, residents, and families. [name removed]was hired immediately in a new facility in Georgetown that our loved one cannot afford. [name removed) fired a lot of staff, some needed to be, but she should be replaced as well. None of her staff like her mgmt style. T

Pros and cons

My mom was only there for a week and a half before she ended up in the hospital and is now in a nursing home for physical therapy. The food was really good - I got to eat a meal with her there once and the sides were very nice. On the flip side, it sometimes took a long time to answer her call button and sometimes no one came at all.

Horribly run facility

Windrush has gone downhill quickly over the past two months. I am regularly in the building and absolutely shocked. First of all, the building smells awful- constant stench of urine. It is obviously not cleaned properly. Every time I come in, there are residents parked in front of a TV. Doesn’t matter if it’s 9am or 2pm. Most of these residents appear to be cognitively impaired and in wheelchairs without the ability to ambulate themselves. The staff turnover has been incredible. [name removed] was always warm and a

Review for Windrush at Garden City Assisted Living

[name removed], Executive Director was top notch, organized, went above and beyond, and was super involved and friendly with staff, residents, and families. Evidently, too nice because the big guy fired him without any notice or reason. We voiced our disapproval, but it didn't do any good. [name removed]was perfect for Windrush, he ran it well, was a former accountant, and very reachable. [name removed] was transferred from another property. We've met her. She's nice, but know nothing else about her. [name remove
