It Takes a Village to Care for the Seniors
reviewed on: 09/24/2020 by AntoinetteIt is a nice place. They treat my loved ones nicely. They don't have transportation for the residents to get to appointments. The food is good and because they are gaining weight. We asked if they wanted us to bring them food, and they said no we have enough food from the community. The staff is very friendly. This community is a little expensive. The community provides laundry service and medication distribution, they even come in and assist with bathing, if needed.
A happy customer
reviewed on: 01/27/2017 by N. BrzyskiMy mom moved to WEL-Burholme in October. She is a widow and has been living in her home alone for 5 years. Since moving to WEL-Burholme the change in her has been astounding. She is very well taken care of. It has taken a good bit of worry off our minds (both hers and mine). The staff makes sure that she takes her medication in the right doses and at the correct time. Her apartment is quite spacious and is kept immaculate by the cleaning staff. If any repairs need to be made the maintenance staff is very prompt in answering her needs. There is always some activity going on that she can participate in. There is never time for her to be lonely, because someone is always around, whether it be staff or residents. If I need to talk to someone about anything they are very good at getting back to me in a timely manner. I would recommend WEL-Burholme to anyone looking for a place for their parent.

So far so good
reviewed on: 08/28/2017 by AnonymousThe person that helped us in the beginning was very easy to work with. They were very helpful and answered all of our questions. The staff I have worked with have been very friendly and willing to help. Most of the time the food is good and they do offer different choices. This community is close to family and I would recommend it.
