Wellmore of Lexington

I had a very nice time at Wellmore of Lexington. The facility itself was clean, up to date, and decorated nicely. It's a cheerful atmosphere. All the staff were very positive. The clients who were there all seemed to be very content. They have a heated indoor swimming pool, an exercise room, and a gym for the clients. The room that we saw was essentially a studio, which had a small refrigerator, a microwave, a TV, a recliner, and a bed.

This review is for Sarah, the Activities Director. She is someone who genuinely cares for the residents in Memory Care, not just performing a job. She strives to bring quality of life for these residents through the many interactions she plans on a daily basis. She engages and encourages and without her I am not sure how our family would have survived the shutdowns over the last year. Living 3000 miles away, I can only say that the weekly FaceTime calls, the photos she sent me showing my mother participating and the encouragement she gave allowed me peace when I could not visit. Sarah goes above and beyond what is expected of her to give every single resident a sense of accomplishment and importance. She even took her own personal time to purchase ingredients to help my mom make her favorite pie for the pie contest in March. There is originality in her activities, and she focuses on what the residents have enjoyed in their past as well as bringing them joy in each day. She will play my mom’s favorite hymn for her on her phone, read devotionals to her on the bad days, and encourage mom to engage. I can’t imagine what my mom’s life would have been like over the last 16 months if Sarah was not there. We cannot say thank you to her enough.

Wellmore of Lexington has been very nice to my mom. She had been able to go down to their dining area and she enjoys that. It also has a lot of different activities to do, hobby type of things. The facility is modern and it's always clean. We've only been here for a little while, and everything is great there.

We're on a waiting list at Wellmore of Lexington. We chose it for proximity to family. It felt good, and the staff was excellent. It was very modern and clean. It was independent. I would recommend it for the people; The people that we met were fabulous. It's near Lexington Medical, but for us it was near family. It was all new construction.

Ella's Daughter

My mother died 15 November after bringing her home on 6 November. Cause of death Starvation. She had a broken molar that had assessed 12 October, and we made dental appointments, but Wellmore couldn’t get her there for the first one. So the dentist came out and said she needed that molar removed. Wellmore said they would handle it. The Appointment they made was 2 November. The dentist wanted me at the appointment. When I saw my mother she was skin ands bones. Within four days I had her home with a new hospice....admitting diagnosis, severe malnutrition. My mother lost over 25 pounds in three weeks. I called everyday to see if she was eating, and always the same response she seems to be.....not what I asked. Not one time did anyone call concerned about her rapid weight loss, not once. Total neglect. This is skilled Nursing people, but I guess you can take off the s. My mother died a very painful because her body was in ketosis ands wouldn’t except any food, but lord knows we tried. My mother had dementia and couldn’t speak for herself, she couldn’t call me to say help me, it was almost impossible to talk with anyone at skilled nursing...even their hospice personnel would tell me, they had a hard time with skilled nursing. We paid Wellmore 9000 dollars a month for Mother’s care....and this is what we got. Beware of their Smoke sand Mirrors....their director was fired and was escorted off the property, the Doctor who saw my quit or was fired.

Our mother is a resident in Wellmore now and we are so pleased with all aspects of this community! The caregivers and Med-techs are so well-trained, professional and caring! Special thanks to Sherese, Trina, Iesha, Jabrasia, Dominique, and Christen for all their special attention! Sarah, the Activities director, is a special lady that keeps mama active and happy too! When we have any logistical questions, Kim M and the Concierge staff such as Kimberly, Ashley, and Mary L are so very helpful!
