You never know what turns your loved one’s health will take! My father-in-law spent 3+ years at Wind Crest. When he was doing well it was great--like a cruise ship for older folk. But then he deteriorated into his dementia and needed memory care it became a terrible experience for him and our family. Unfortunately, many dementia sufferers do become aggressive. This is very common--yet WC would send him to the E.R. every time. Why? It was cruel and we had to go and get him sometimes nightly. They also forced us to hire extra 24-7 outside care to "watch him" on top of the $7,500. The “watchers” only increased his aggression and cost us nearly $20,000 extra per month. The staff is wonderful, but the company that makes the rules is not. Don't offer memory care if you can't handle issues related to dementia! We had to move him, and he died 3 weeks later.

Wincrest Assisted Living for seniors who can take care of themselves has been a wonderful place for my parents. I would recommend this facility to anyone seeking assisted living places. A set of around 800 apartments where my folks live independently. Their arrangements include a meal per day in a nice dining restaurant atmosphere. When dining with out guests the hostess places members together to get to know each other. The meals are prepared by a well skilled chef which serves a meal similar to what one would purchase at a restaurant. The nursing staff has been very helpful with their bathing and medical needs. Additional services like transportation, pools, a convenience store, bank, barber/beauty shop, resident laundry, housekeeping, and security, are all services and amenities that are provided there. Also a number of activities are available to all residents such as arts and crafts, square dancing with live singers, card games and computer labs. These services allow visitors to join others living at Wincrest to be included in all of these activities.

From a warm, happy, friendly staff we were welcomed to Windcrest, an assisted living facility located near the intersection of County Line Road and South Santa Fe. Last year Mom had reserved a place on their waiting list for her and Dad since they were having trouble getting up and down the stairs in the old two story house I was raised in. Upon an invitation to Sunday Brunch we made our first visit to WindCrest, since Mom and Dad had taken up residence there, when my children and I arrived at the dining room of my folks new home. In a lovely atmosphere, full of other Windcrest residents and their visiting loved ones, we enjoyed a wonderfully prepared Sunday morning brunch with my folks. Our entire visit was pleasant and we were rather surprised at the number of new acquaintances my parents introduced us to. Mom said the facility places members at different tables each meal so they can socialize and fit right in very quickly. Their food, staff, location and view of the Rocky Mountains from the facility were delightful and we left that day knowing Mom and Dad were in very good hands.

I was well taken care of at Windcrest and so were my Grandparents. This it a top notch facility for assisted living and I visit often. I was to hear that those who started this idea ... business were forced to sell because of Banks! The facility is awesome the services great and the atmosphere welcoming! I enjoy visiting every chance I get because I know they do take care of everyone who lives there.
