I am posting this review of Wesley Enhanced Living at Stapeley, specifically the Bridges Memory Care. The move-in process was very smooth, facilitated on-site by Patrick who also recommended a particularly excellent moving service that helped set up my mom's room to feel and look like her old apartment! So far the level of care I've witnessed in person while visiting, as well as on the phone has been top-notch, and I can tell my mom is enjoying the activities and events. The on-site music events really make my mom happy, and she loves to do the sing-alongs. I've gotten to eat a few meals with her, and the food and the service is great! I rest easy knowing that she's in good hands, and I really appreciate the empathy, compassion, and understanding from everyone I've met from switchboard to caregiver to management.

Wesley Enhanced Living at Stapeley took a personal approach during our tour. When the gentleman we met with, Patrick, explained to us why he got into this business, it made it very personal. He explained that he works with families and helps them during the transition, making the move very smooth and very easy. The price point is good, too, and the level of service they provide sounds like it's going to be perfect for our needs.
We liked that there are different levels of residents in their memory care journey, so my father-in-law would be around people who are at various stages. We also liked the fact that there's independent living and assisted living available on the property, which hopefully mom-in-law will transition in those as well.
We did evening hours to tour, because of our work schedules, and Patrick was able to accommodate us. Not only did he provide us with his number there, but he gave us his cell number. I went to leave a message on his cell and he answered it. He was just overly helpful, considering that this is new to us and we've never been in this situation before. The only thing was it's an older building. It's a hundred years old, so they've done a lot of renovations and it's not brand new like some of the other places I've been.

I did a tour of Wesley Enhanced Living at Stapeley, and to me, it's deplorable. It's just dreadful there. We went by for the tour. They were going to show us where my mother would be, it's at the end of a corner and you go around down the hallway in one place, back in there. But as we go and pass there, there was throw-up on the floor. The staff said, "Oh, pardon, I thought they had taken care of that." It's back in the corner and it's just dark, it needs to be cleaned up.
I was very familiar with it because my dad had Alzheimer's about ten years ago, and he passed. That was his living area for years, but it's just not the same. It's changed hands and it's not good.
The staff we were with, was fairly new and wasn't knowledgeable. When we would ask her about what their day consisted of, she would refer to the planner. She had the full schedule but could never identify to us what the typical day would be for the memory care unit. She did tell us she was new, and she would get back to whoever it is she needs to. I just feel that whoever's going to take you for the tour needs to be knowledgeable, because that's the reason you are going there.

WEL at Stapeley only deserves applause!
Admission process and tour was impressive. The historical building and grounds itself are an architectural gem hidden in the middle of Mt. Airy. The hallways were full of introductions and smiling, happy hello’s.
ALL of Stapeley staff ( nursing, caretakers, kitchen prep, maintenance, room cleaners, laundry, front desk and management) are all A-#1 !! —kind, attentive and compassionate.
Nurse and doctor care is thorough and any questions or concerns are always addressed in a timely manner with much patience.
One quickly becomes part of a Community at Stapeley— working, crying and laughing together and supporting one another for both yourself/ family and your loved one.
I entered Mother in Memory Care ( Bridges) in December and we have now moved to Skilled Nursing. I already feel that the new team has quickly also become extended family! So kind and attentive to every need!
By the way....the food is yummy and delicious!!
I could not have made a better choice than W.E.L at Stapeley!!!

Its been about a month since we moved my mother into the Stapeley facility of Wesley Enhanced Living and my siblings and I are a very pleased. Mom's declining memory and other cognitive skills required a transition to a facility with expertise in memory care issues. The move from personal care at another Wesley residence to the Bridges unit at Stapeley was seamless. Patrick and his team helped my mom stay calm and eased her anxiety about moving to a new home. My mom has been much more active and is benefitting from a more structured daily routine. She even loves the food! Mom's journey continues in a safe and caring environment.
