My grandmother has just moved into Brookdale Wekiwa Springs. She hasn't been there very long, but so far, they're very welcoming. Her room is nice and a great size. I saw the dining room, and they have a beautiful courtyard out back. I think the meals are fine; she hasn't complained. Excellent communication. They have a beauty shop, but I haven't seen it. The building is well maintained and there's plenty of parking.

Brookdale Wekiwa Springs was nice, but my mother needed a little bit more assistance. The person during the visit was very professional, very nice and very informative. The dining area was an open area, and it was quite nice.

Upon entering Brookdale Wekiwa Springs, we were greeted with a smile and saw many smiling faces in the common space. We noticed a staff member having a cup of coffee and sharing conversations with some residents, and a cook from the kitchen participating with another group of residents building puzzles. Many seem engaged. Our first impression was positive, and it felt like we had enetered the family room of one of our homes. There is a cozy feeling and an inviting environment. Throughout the time we were there, we were greeted by many staff members, identified by there name badges. Unfortunately, there weren’t many activities at the time of our visit, there were things listed on the schedule, but we didn’t see any of them taking place. The apartments we saw felt very spacious and we enjoyed learning about Brookdales Optimum Care philosophy. We look forward to having our mom become a resident at Welisha Springs

My mother has moved into Brookdale Wekiwa Springs. The activities are about average. Her room is a very small efficiency room. My mom is not physically able to do a whole lot of activities. She is not a fun, loving, or giving person, so there is not really a whole lot I can say about the place other than that it is just like the rest of them. They're pretty much the same. People are just doing their jobs because they have to make a living. You pay a lot of money for this place, but you get minimum service. They're only cleaning the room, but that isn't enough, so if you want more, you have to pay more. The staff is about average.

I like Brookdale Wekiwa Springs, but they had too many add-ons. The staff were wonderful and very accommodating. The place was clean and very nice. They have a lot of entertainment, which is very nice.

When we moved into Brookdale Wekiwa, we stayed in a cottage and liked it a lot. Because of our health, we had to move into the main building into a very small apartment. It is kind of tight, but we are getting along. They have a schedule of activities that you can follow or not follow that changes every week a little, so you just follow that schedule and pick the activities that you want to be in. They serve three meals a day, but we only eat the one evening meal. The staff is sometimes not very helpful; I think they can do a better job.

Brookdale Wekiwa Springs is a nice place. The room and the dining area are adequate. The grounds are very pleasant and very quiet. The staff is very kind, very easy to work with, and caring.

The staff at Brookdale Wekiwa Springs is great. The area and the facility are very nice. They just did a renovation, so it's very appealing aesthetically. The living quarters are very nice with very nice, large bathrooms. My room is large enough for me to fit a bed, a sofa with a coffee table, and an oriental rug under it. I have a curio cabinet and a small kitchen area with a refrigerator. The food is not as good as it used to be. They have very good recreations and a very nice activity director who comes in and greets me very often.

My mom is at Brookdale Wekiwa Springs. It is a nice place. They are redoing it and giving it a face lift. It is looking very good. The workers are good. It is a memory care facility, so they bring the food to the residents. I am satisfied with their care.

Brookdale Wekiwa Springs is nice but a little pricey for my brother's situation. It is very nice. You come into the lobby, and there is a dining room off to the right, a nice looking library, and a television area. The staff that I talked to all seem to be good. It is really the only place I looked at, but I thought the rooms were nice, clean, and well cared for. The staff that I talked to seemed competent and caring. It has a memory center with it so that if a person needed that sort of care like Dementia or Alzheimer's, they can transition and be in the same place.

Brookdale Wekiwa Springs was an old facility. The dining area was small. The food was just OK. The staff was very friendly. The assisted living facilities were very small, and if you get to the point where you need a lot of help, you do not get much room. It is way smaller than other places. They do have independent living which is a separate unit that I would love to be in because it was 12,000 square feet. It has a garage with a garage door and screened in porch. They had a wonderful director who showed us around.

The people were very nice and very helpful. The place was not nearly as nice as where they are now which is now Brookdale. I have tried the food, and I have to say that the food at Brookdale is probably a lot better.

I thought it looked really nice on the outside and I think the people who were not memory care patients probably did well, but I found the memory care unit to be really dark and kind of low feeling, and closed in; it was just not open and spacious. The rooms were small and it was dark and dingy in there; it just didn’t feel like I wouldn’t have been able to be happy there. They had a small space outside, and their dining room is very tiny.

I moved mom in last September. The facility is alright and I like the fact that they have activities for my mom. They have exercises, they go out for a walk, and they also play bingo. They have people there that are dedicated for what they were doing and there are others just for paycheck. She's in a shared room and I think it could be a little bit better. I chose this facility because of its proximity.

This is the facility that I really like the best. My mother has Alzheimer's and I did like the fact that they did keep them out of the general public. I also like that they are in the area of the building that is just for Alzheimer's patient. They have rooms where you could have two people in and they also have single rooms.
