Review for Woodland Terrace

The independent living experience was very good. Lots of activities, well kept, attentive staff. The assisted living experience was not great. They weren't able to successfully meet my mother's needs. Their proposed solution to bridge the gap between what they could deliver and the care she needed was to make us pay for a sitter - which is extremely expensive. We ended up moving her to a group home setting which has been much better. I wish I knew of this option sooner. It would have saved us a lot of grief.

Response from the community

Thank you for your review. We're glad you found our community full of great activities and caring associates. It is good to hear your mother found the care she needed and wish her well in her new home.

Would recommend it

The staff was awesome! My mom was in the hospital a couple times, and it would have been nice if somebody had called me to ask me how she was doing. Maybe they don't do that? She had to go to rehab 3 weeks before she passed away and unfortunately no one called me then either to see how she was doing.

Woodland Terrace

The staff was super helpful and friendly. The facility is very clean. I think it would be helpful if the facility could have some sort of orientation for family members to attend.

Independent living excellent, assisted living careless

Our parent lived in independent living for over 10 years and was quite happy. Overall we were very pleased with the community services and management in independent living. Sadly, during Covid our parent sustained a fall requiring relocation to Assisted Living. In Assisted Living, staff very strict about level of care and will absolutely not manage any feeding that does not take place in dining room . During our Final weeks there, as we were actively seeking new setting with higher level of care, our parent was lef

Hi Amy, I'm glad to hear your experience with Woodland Terrace was positive for over 10 years. Just to clarify, we do have residents that eat in their room, and we do offer feeding assistance if we have the staff to accommodate. Please reach out if there are any further details to your situation, as we'd love to know how we can keep improving. You can reach our Executive Director at amanda.klobuchar@kiscosl.com. Thanks for the feedback.
