    Beautiful campus, good care, concerns

    I toured and placed my mom here and loved the beautiful, light-filled campus, tasteful renovations, strong therapy program, lively activities, great meals, pool and music nights. Many staff - especially Amy, Brittany and Shelley - were caring and competent and helped her recover; tours were informative and the community can feel very welcoming. However, frequent leadership turnover, overnight staffing shortages, confusing layout and outsourced caregivers caused missed care, poor communication and occasional rude or abusive behavior; it's also expensive with extra fees. Bottom line: outstanding amenities and clinical care at times, but monitor staffing and management closely.

    About Wesley on Grand, a WesleyLife Community for Healthy Living

    Wesley on Grand is a senior living community that's part of WesleyLife, so folks can get a range of services right there, including independent living, assisted living, memory care, home care, and skilled nursing, plus short-term rehab and adult day services at the Dahl Adult Day Center. The place is known for being clean, well-stocked, and has nice touches like art on the walls-some made by residents-and there's a lot of sunlight and pretty spaces, with a pond and fountain out back, walking trails, and places where residents can gather together or just have some quiet time in their own apartment, whether it's a studio, single, or two-bedroom. The apartments usually include a kitchen or kitchenette, washers and dryers, and features for safety and accessibility, like sprinklers and handrails, and you get options like cable TV, wifi, and a salon called Grand Creations for hair and beauty.

    The Wesley on Grand staff is trained to support everyone's needs, whether someone's mostly independent or needs help with daily tasks, memory loss, or more serious health care. They handle personal care, transportation, housekeeping, laundry, and there's information and support for long-term care insurance too. Meals come with plenty of choices, and social life is active, with programs for wellness, fitness, education, arts and crafts, games, and other activities that help neighbors connect. Special safety and wayfinding tools help with privacy and let people move around with ease. The big idea is to support both mind and body health with wellness programs and spiritual support, which fits WesleyLife's approach, focusing on healthy living and seeing possibilities for every person.

    There are other connected communities too-like Park Centre, Edgewater, Wesley The Village, Brio of Johnston, Fair Haven East, Pella Manor, and Halcyon House-sharing in the same WesleyLife tradition. Wesley on Grand lets you have peace of mind knowing there's priority access to different care levels as needs change. People can stay in their homes and still use at-home services for home care, palliative, hospice or Meals on Wheels. The Well at Wesley Wellness Center runs regular fitness and health programs, and the community reaches out, offering programs like Community Nutrition and intergenerational activities that tie everyone together. Folks can also use transportation, enjoy dining rooms with varied menus, and gather in fitness and activity rooms.

    Wesley on Grand rates an 8 out of 10 from residents and their families, which shows people think pretty well of the place. The community emphasizes supporting both independent and assisted living, offers specialized memory and nursing care, and puts a big focus on holistic wellness. Staff approach care with Christian values and compassion, aiming for brighter, healthier, and fuller lives for older adults, but of course, what feels right will depend on each person's needs and wants.
