If I could give them a zero star I would. I would never put my worse enemy in this place. This place is legit a joke. They don't care about the residents at all.

Giving one star is generous. They treat their staff very poorly and care more about gossip than actually accommodating the residents.

This place might be ok if you don’t want answers on anything. Nurses were nice but Beth, the RN supervisor, Skylar, the case manager person , and assistant director did not appear to know which hand was right or left. We could not get answers from them. Never did have a “care plan” meeting on what was expected in my Aunts Rehabilitation before being discharged . The meeting was scheduled two weeks after her admission, which was the day she was discharge. We are not sure if they didn’t know their jobs or if they have something to hide.

It has been a very difficult time for us since my mother in law fell. She is still sharp as a tack but can’t get around as well and I don’t know what we would have done without the caring, loving staff at windy Hill. They go above and beyond for the residents and make the facility warm and welcoming. I always see them smiling and visiting each resident. We can ease our minds knowing that not only is she safe and well cared for but also not lonely. My mother in law even asked me to purchase movies to share with other residents during movie night. This has reassured us in knowing that she’s not just sitting in a room all alone and is so refreshing since we have heard some horror stories about other facilities.

I have a loved one at Heritage Ridge at Windy Hill in Personal Care. The care she receives there is top notch with a caring staff. Our family would recommend this facility to everyone.
