The staff was great ! The blonde lady up front was working and doing a great job ! The social director was great and asked us to get a report from the center my sisters husband is at so we can get him sent to temple . We loved that they are interested in getting him to temple . Thus place is a little older , but appeared to be clean and I notice cleaning carts down each hallway . The flooring really needs to be replaced , however I notice the remodeling taking place . I understand there is a director of activity's and this person has a schedule for the patients .Its sad that the VA is here in Temple and there are few options fir the veterans ! That's sad and not a good thing ! Our veterans deserve better ! William Cortney is not a part of the VA and most people do not know that ! I was not impressed with the staff there at all ! However I was very impressed with the staff at Wellington ! In the end , it's the staff and how interested they are in there patents and the home they make for them and making a comfortable place for them ! It's the love of people that we feel Wellington can provide for my sisters husband . ! Felt that love there ! May God bless all<br>Of you there , it takes a special person to do your jobs there at Wellington ! 🙏

My son is in Wellington. The staff and nurses are so pleasant and helpful. They are very patient with my son and family. It is very clean and the housekeepers are always so friendly.<br>This is his second time here and we requested Wellington this time around. I believe if his stay is extended he will be pleased with everyone.
