My mom moved to The Waterford at Ironbridge. She's enjoying being there. All the staff was super friendly and nice. They go out of their way to make sure that the residents feel at home. The facility itself is extremely clean. It's a super nice place. It's got three different size apartments and the one she's got is a large apartment. It's laid out well. They've got daily activities. They play Mexican trains. They've got bingo night. They've got musicians coming in every once in a while. They always have some sort of outside activities, they do field trips, be in a garden or the zoo or someplace like that.

Provider Response

Thank you, Roger, for taking time to share your positive feedback! We are thrilled to have your mom here at The Waterford at Ironbridge. Have a fantastic day!

The rooms are very nice size and the food is good quality for the price. The staff have gone above and beyond, showing deep caring for our Dad. Transportation services are great. Dad had a very difficult year, and the director and her team did everything we could have asked for ( and more) to assist us. Highly recommend this facility!

Provider Response

We are pleased to hear how well your dad's experience has been her at The Waterford at Ironbridge. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this positive feedback!

My parents recently moved to the Waterford. The staff has been so friendly, the meals delicious and the facility is pretty and well maintained. They have a library and daily activities the residents have the option of participating in. The directors and staff are attentive, and to seem to genuinely care about the residents and making the facility a fun, pleasant environment in which to call home.

Provider Response

Hi Krenshaw, thank you for taking the time to leave a review for us at The Waterford at Ironbridge. We're happy we could meet your expectations! We have enjoyed getting to know your mom & dad and their sweet Sissy & Maya!

I live here at The Waterford at Ironbridge. The staff makes me feel right at home. They're all nice and friendly. The food is good, but sometimes, it's hard to get good meat. The porkchop might be a little tough, although it's not a big deal. Housekeeping is good. They just remodeled not long ago. It's just like new. They have exercise, all kinds of games like Scrabble and canasta, chess, and bingo. They have happy hour here, too. The transportation is a big thing. They pick me up and they'll take me wherever I want to go. Mark is a really nice guy.

My dad really likes it here and the staff are amazing. The people have so much fun with all the actives that are available on a daily basis. I can visit him anytime night or day and someone is always available to answer any questions or concerns I may have. The place is very clean and and always smells amazing. The price is so affordable and they informed us of ways to help pay for days room. With that being said I can not thank Waterford for everything they do for dad which makes this daughter very happy.

My mother has lived here for 5 years. (which means they went through the challenge of covid there!). I have been impressed from day one. The staff is so caring and personable. I love seeing the dining room staff, the cleaning staff , and the office staff always so pleasant and talkative to the residents in their care. They really lead in a way that puts the residents quality of life first. The activities are probably my favorite part. There is something for everyone...and that is not an easy task. My mom has been so happy here. I'm glad she found it and recommend highly.

Provider Response

We're happy to hear you had such a positive experience with our team! We absolutely love spending our days with so many amazing residents and their families. Thank you for trusting us with your mother's care.

My friend is at The Waterford at Ironbridge. The atmosphere, the food, and the location are great. The activities are unreal. It's so clean. Everything is topnotch perfect. The staff is very caring and they appear to love their job because the residents are very happy there. The food is done nicely and they have special events and they are beautiful. They're so artistically done. I love the food and presentation on the food. The facility is spotless. It's wonderful. You walk in, everything's easy to get to. I have a walker and it's so easy to walk right in that door and get around easily. I notice people in wheelchairs, and they can get around easily. There are gardens to go to. You can go outside and work in the garden, all kinds of things, whatever you want to do. The activities director has a calendar and she has it packed full of things to do. They do everything from exercise to bible study. They might go to see a Willie Nelson concert or they may go to the casino. The activity director is busy working with everyone and meeting all their needs. Just the other day, they did ice cream floats. Everybody dresses up and they just have a really good, fun time. I know that the people there don't complain about the price.

Provider Response

We are so fortunate to have a beautiful community, with loads of activities, variety of engagement and events, excursions and really THE best staff around! Thank you for taking such a wonderful moment to sing the praises of Ironbridge!

I like The Waterford at Ironbridge. I like the people. It's warm. They keep the heat on most of the time. Once in a while it's a little chilly. The staff is friendly and helpful. The food could be improved. I'd like to have a steak once in a while. Upkeep and maintenance of our building are OK. I would like it to be a little warmer. We have good activities here. We have a real good activity director. I give her an A-plus. Every morning, except for one morning, the activity director has us do an exercise session, which is very good. One day a week, another guy does the activities and he is not as good. I think it's good value for my money.

Provider Response

We love that you describe the community as warm and welcoming - we are so thrilled that you took the time to share your experience and what life really is like at Ironbridge! Here's to making more memories!

I'm at The Waterford at Ironbridge. The activities are always very, very creative and there's always something going on. All of the residents, no matter what their condition or age, the activity director finds something suitable for them and there's always a buzz of activity around. It's just a happy place to be. The staff is always very friendly, always very welcoming, always very helpful, and makes you feel like you're in your own home. The food is very tasty. There's always a great selection. It's always hot and always served on time. It's very good. The place is well kept up, always clean, there's nothing in the corners, always spotless, and impeccable. It's a good place for the money. You couldn't find a better value for what's offered.

Provider Response

You are so right! You cannot find a better value for the incredible team we have who have really devoted their day to ensuring resident engagement and satisfaction is top notch!

My mother has been a resident at this facility for more than four years. It has been an extremely positive experience for her and me. The atmosphere is very positive. My Mom has made a lot of good friends among the residents. The staff are warm and welcoming, very professional, and available to support and encourage residents to stay active and engaged. It is a better quality of life than my Mom had prior to coming here. The staff reach out to me any time they see a change in my Mom's health and well-being, and watch out for her until I can travel to be with her. I can highly recommend this wonderful community to any family seeking quality senior living.

This is a great place! As soon as my mom went in she said it was a happy place and didn't look at any other places. All of the staff are kind and helpful, the rooms are nice, well kept up, and the food is good. I have such peace of mind knowing my mom is living in a safe place, with people that care, and she still has her independence.

Provider Response

The Waterford at Ironbridge was very, very good. The place was beautiful. They had musicians playing country music and country hymns, the room was crowded, and everybody was very cheerful about it. The band was very good. Good music. The rooms were nice. They were large, well-lit, and in excellent repair. I used the restroom and I was very pleased. I think they had a pool and an exercise room. They had a beautiful library.

I visited this facility

I drove around the building last week and felt the location to be cramped, with other developments right up to the property line (except for on the golf course end), but when I visited today I got a completely different impression. Property staff at the front desk were ready for my tour appointment, even though the normal person who gives tours was out today. I toured with the property manager, who was professional and thorough. The facility is large inside, with a spacious lobby and dining area and halls that are long enough to provide good walking exercise no matter what the weather outside. The rooms (I saw a studio and a 1BR) were large and modern. They fed me lunch and although the portions were smaller than I anticipated they were really just the right size for what I should be eating anyway. Lunch --including dessert--was delicious! Each meal is served for a 2-hour period and there are snacks available for in between times. I was very favorably impressed with The Waterford and the professionalism of all the staff I saw.

Provider Response

Thank you so much for taking time to visit and spend time in our community! We would be honored to have you join our Ironbridge family.

I just spent a few days with Mom at Ironbridge and was pleased with the energy and general happiness of your residents and staff after the long months of pandemic, quarantine, restrictions, etc. Everyone just seemed to have a "new lease on life" since my last visit a few months ago. I love the new paint colors, flooring and carpet. It makes the facility bright and cheerful although the sound does now "bounce around" a bit in the dining room with the new tile floors. I have to compliment your chef. He knows exactly what every resident usually wants for breakfast and he double checks if they order something different. The server John is most helpful and very courteous to the residents. I did notice that some of the residents with arthritic fingers and vision problems have difficulty opening the butter and cream packets, sometimes setting them aside after futile attempts to open them. I don't know whether health department regulations would allow any packaging simpler to access. Your Activities Director is to be commended. She really works to engage all of the participants in the activity presented. She has such a positive encouraging attitude and amazing patience. Mom and I took a walk outside every day and your grounds are immaculate. The outdoor seating along the sidewalks is spaced just right for a quick rest. All that said to say: I enjoyed my visit with Mom. This week my daughter is flying in for her first visit with Mom since she moved to Ironbridge so I am anxious to learn her impressions of her Grandma's new home.

When I decided that I was tired of living alone and eating my own cooking I started a search for a new home. I toured several local independent living facilities. Most had an institutional feel. The Waterford struck me as a Big Old Grand Hotel and it felt like home.

My mother is at The Waterford at Ironbridge. It's been fine. It's a very clean place, and the people are very nice. Mom seems to enjoy it, so that's all that matters. The price was good. It was less expensive than some places. We like them. We've eaten there several times, and they have a variety of food. They have a main meal. If you don't like that, there's a selection you can choose from a menu. The food I had was good. They have activities and transportation to doctors' appointments and things like that. They have games and sometimes they have music or different performers. They just totally remodeled it.

Provider Response

Thank you for your kind words and positive review. The Waterford is well known for its outstanding food selections and preparations. I am glad to hear that you are enjoying the variety of options available. We hope that mom continues to enjoy her stay with us!

We're really happy with The Waterford at Ironbridge. It seems like a really good value for the price. It's convenient and clean, and the meals are good. The staff has been very supportive in getting my sister settled in. I was very pleased with the location because it's right next to a golf course, so it gives her a green space to look out. The price was lower because it is a small one-bedroom, but it still has enough space. The front room is big, the bedroom is a little small, but she just has a twin bed, so it's OK. They have music groups come in. My sister has just been there one day, so she hasn't experienced any of the activities yet. It looks like they have an activity every day. They have yoga every morning, games, a popcorn social, a fingernail clinic, a trip to the zoo, and candlelight dinners once a month, which is a nice touch. They have Wii bowling and hydration education. They have a full schedule that's available. They have a garden club and there's a library. For June, they were having $1500 off. So, it was only $500 to get started and that was refundable if you changed your mind within the next three weeks or so, through June.

Provider Response

We are very happy your sister is now part of our community, and excited for her to have an apartment with a golf course view! We do have a robust activity schedule, and are confident she will find activities that appeal to her interests. Thank you so much for taking time to provide the positive feedback.

We went to The Waterford at Ironbridge yesterday. It was clean, it had no odor, it was well lit, and it was friendly. The residents that we did see either waved or smiled or said: "We like it here." They have adequate amenities. The residents appeared to be content. They have a library, they have a salon, and they have exercise pets. They allowed pets. They have parking available. The cost was a little bit more than the others.

Provider Response

Thank you for visiting our community! We are so grateful you felt the warm and friendly atmosphere we try to provide. We would love to discuss our monthly promotions and discounts. We feel confident in our ability to provide the community you and others are searching for. Thank you for the kind review.

I toured The Waterford at Ironbridge. The sales person was pleasant and helpful, but the tour did not go very well for me. The facility was better looking on the outside than the inside. It appeared that they were making some renovations to the dining area. The carpet was definitely dated. I was not impressed with the overall appearance of the facility, and the facility had an odor. The rooms were OK. They didn't jump out as newly renovated, as some of the other ones were. They did not have a patio balcony to walk out on for each room. It definitely looked more like a hotel than an apartment.

Provider Response

Thank you so much for taking time to visit our community! We always appreciate any feedback we receive. We are currently undergoing some dining room and flooring renovations. I’m sorry to hear you were disappointed in some things you experienced. We are normally known for our attention to detail. Thank you again for your feedback!

The Waterford at Ironbridge is a beautiful facility and the people were friendly. We talked to some of the residents and some of the staff. The only drawback for us is they don't offer the level of care that we really need. The dining room is beautiful, the rooms were nice, they seem to be well maintained, clean and neat. They have a lot of activities for the residents, they were telling us about music therapy, we witnessed a little bit of that, they were telling us about an event that they had where people had replanted some flowers, and how they bring in people to sing for the residents there.

Thank you for the wonderful review of our community and our team!

I went to The Waterford at Ironbridge. I absolutely loved it, and we would be leaning towards putting my mother there once she's kind of at that point. The lady, Brianna, was fantastic to work for, and we just loved the facility. The staff was fantastic, absolutely loved them, and I would feel very comfortable moving my mother there. It's very beautiful. On the outside, they actually have some walking trails, it's up against the golf course, so that makes it very beautiful, and the inside was nicely decorated and very spacious.

Provider Response

Thank you for the kind words Lisa! We love and adore the residents in our community and take pride in ensuring everyone feels like they are at "Home" when they walk in our doors. We look forward to seeing you and working together in the future! Warmly,

My mother is moving into The Waterford at Ironbridge. The dining room was very nice, and the room she's getting is all redone completely, so it's like new. The bedroom is kind of small, but the living room and kitchen area is a good size. They have exercise, and the amenities look good and are a good variety. We liked the location better than the other place we went to.

Provider Response

Thank you Marilyn! We are so excited to be welcoming your sweet Mother into our home! We take pride on balancing the safety of our residents as well as their mental and physical health during such a time of uncertainty. Thank you for entrusting us with this responsibility!

The Waterford at Ironbridge has been good. I have no problems with them, the staff is excellent, they provide dining services, and it's pretty good. They have a lot of activities, but they had to scale back due to COVID. They have an activities director and she does stuff. They used to have people come in and play music and stuff like that before COVID. It's a real good value.

Thank you for the kind words David! As you know, The Waterford is our HOME and our residents are our FAMILY. We are so thankful for our residents and families and the love and support that they’ve exhibited to our team during these times of uncertainty. The one constant that we want our residents and families to be certain of is that no matter what the future holds we will band together and ensure the safety and well-being of our Waterford family first and foremost. Servitude is our greatest blessing.

The Waterford at Ironbridge was a nice facility. The apartments weren't as big and didn't have in-apartment washer-and-dryer, so those were the two things that were a downside. There were two people who assisted us there. The lady who first showed us around was really good, thorough and helpful. The second person was also helpful, showed us everything we wanted and needed, and explained things well. The dining area was nice and the food was good. There were a lot of activities like workout, sewing, Bible studies, and crafts.

I liked The Waterford, it's only 1-2 stories, and it's very beautiful. It's a very nice place to be, but the rooms were small.

The Waterford was really nice. The facility was just bright and pretty especially the common area. I thought I liked that the best of the commons areas that I liked. They had pretty standard rooms. We looked at one and two bedrooms. There were really clean, fresh, and simple. My husband had breakfast, and he liked what he had. I had their regular special for that day, and it was excellent. They had a really nice music room or activity room. They had a crafts room, and they had jigsaw puzzles that you could work on. Then, they had a special dining room that you could have your family had dinner with you. Then, they had the view of the golf course.

My Mom is almost 80 yrs old. We've been coming to Waterford's outreach events for the last two years as we prepare for what's around the corner for Mom's next step. What we found was a really nice facility with caring people. Mom's favorite event was the one with the live big band music. Of course we danced and had a great time. I think we'll continue to go these events so we can continue to meet the staff and have fun. And when the time is right I think this will probably be the place Mom picks. I know I would.

My father-in-law has only been at The Waterford at Ironbridge for four days, but so far, things look pretty good. He has a large one-bedroom that is maybe 650 square feet. The food is perfect. It seems like a really good place. It's very nice and clean. Everything here as far as I can tell is perfect.

My mother-in-law is at The Waterford at Ironbridge. Their staff is awesome. They assign little helpers for her that knock on her door and take her down to lunch and down to dinner and also showed her around. They have done an awesome job on that. They also have caregivers there that you can use if you need it. She is in a one bedroom apartment right now and it has a small kitchenette with a refrigerator, stove, as well as a microwave. They have different activities like they have a game room where they can go on and play games, a pool table, and they also have bingo. The dining room looks like a restaurant and they hand you a menu where you can order anything off the menu.

A cruise ship on land and the food is absolutely delicious!! Thank you for the wonderful review!

I have toured The Waterford at Ironbridge, and they've been awesome. The people keep calling me back to get updates on Mom to see how she is doing, and if we need a place to stay, they have a guest facility that we could use. The apartments were very airy. They all had emergency pulls in case someone falls. They were all brand new, remodeled, and very nice and had good, thick, comfy carpets. The staff was super friendly. They answered every question I could think of and were really helpful. They had all kinds of activities indoors and also had shuttle buses to go places, like the casino, which all comes with your monthly rent. They have a main dining hall and three dining halls if you don't want to eat with a large group of people, and a special family dining room specifically set-up if you wanted to have a special Thanksgiving dinner with your kids.

The Waterford was a nice facility but a little more expensive. It was not large, but is in a very nice park-like setting. It is close to a hospital. The living area is very nice.

The Waterford was wonderful. Everyone, from the people living there to the people who worked there, was very helpful. There was always somebody saying, "Can we help you?" All the residents were telling us how wonderful the place was, and that we would love it. It was very clean, very neat, beautifully furnished, and had beautiful flowers and trees. It was almost like a home setting and was everything I was looking for. The one we were going to rent was a wonderful two-bedroom with plenty of room, and the kitchen was a little small, but she didn't need a kitchen because they have their own dining area there, which is a little breakfast nook. But other than that, they have large walk-in closets and large showers, so I was very pleased. It could have been a two-people place or a one-person place; you could even have three if you needed to. They even allowed us to have a meal there as we were doing our walk-through, just so we could taste and see what we thought. My mother and I both ate there; it was wonderful. They had a waitress that functioned just purposely for us and our surrounding tables, and she was very attentive. And the food was delicious. I did see everything that they allowed or offered for the residents to do, but I went on a day when there wasn't any activity scheduled. I believe it was a Saturday that I went, but the board was full of activities for them -- away from the place where they live as well as inside.

We would love for you to join us for an amazing culinary experience. We have made so many positive changes since your last visit and we want to show those off!

I have researched The Waterford at Ironbridge through the Internet. I love the entrance where you go in. They have a welcoming guest sign right there at the front where you could see it, and the place was full of windows. It just looks so bright and cheerful. The rooms are really nice. They have a lot of activities, and we ate lunch, and I was impressed with the food. They have a nice salad bar. I talked to several of the residents, and they seemed comfortable, and they looked happy there. The staff are all very nice.

Thank you for the wonderful review of our community and our team!

The Waterford had the best social activities. They took their residents everywhere. They took those people to music shows and movies. They had the best social calendar for the residents; Mom really liked that, but the rooms were very small, and they were one of the most expensive. We liked the staff very much. They were friendly and they showed us around. They seemed to take their time with us to make sure we got to see everything we needed to see.

Provider Response

Lisa66493850, we truly appreciate your honest feedback. We would love for you to see the community now and all the positive changes that have taken place.

I moved at Waterford at Ironbridge. I like the food, they wash the linens and the towels, they vacuum and clean the floor weekly. The staff that worked there, it took me awhile to convince them that the residents are the most important people here and not the workers, but I finally did. The place is expensive and they will continue to raise it so I need to find another place because I'll definitely run out of money.

Provider Response

We are so sorry you were not able to stay but took the time to give us such a wonderful review. Our residents absolutely come first and we would love for you to see all the wonderful changes we have made, since you left.

My mom likes it there. It was real big and it was kind of overwhelming for her. The apartments were very nice. The people there were very considerate. It's just that as time went on it just became too difficult for mom. She needed more help and they're not equipped to do that there because it's an independent facility. She was happy there before she progressed.

Provider Response

This is great to hear mom was happy before she moved! We work hard on really putting our arms around our residents and creating a welcome environment.
