Community Reviews
Not our best option...
reviewed on: 06/07/2017 by AnonymousWhen I toured Fairwinds, my mother was under the weather not doing well, she was just out of the hospital. Fairwinds was under construction and it would have been too confusing with all of the stuff going on. Plus, the room that they showed us that was available was facing a spot that they were going to build a building. She would have been facing a building and we did not want that.
my review of Fairwinds - Sandcreek
reviewed on: 05/06/2021 by anonymousThis community is very nice and the food is great. The staff is great and is very friendly. The community does not have a memory care unit so unfortunately, it didn't fit our needs.
Welcoming environment
reviewed on: 10/04/2017 by AnonymousThe staff at Fairwinds is great. When I brought my mother in, she was unable to walk and the aids there made sure that someone is with her and checking on her every hour. She enjoys the food and there's plenty of it to keep everyone satisfied. The other residents are really nice and friendly, they try their best to include everyone. The director is great at organizing different types of activities so everyone has something to do. The only complaint I have is that sometimes the staff forgets to check the fridges in the rooms. My mom went 10 days roughly with food in her fridge that hadn't been cleaned out. It is a bit expensive but you do get what you pay for and in this case, it's a lot. I would recommend this place to anyone that is looking in this area because it's nice and clean, the smell is always nice and never overwhelming.

Good but not outstanding
reviewed on: 06/25/2020 by AnonymousIt was fine there for my mom and we didn't really have any problems with them. The caregivers were mediocre. For us, in comes down to lack of skilled nursing care, and no registered nurses 24 hours a day. It seemed like there was always a high staff turnover and that seemed especial hard for my mom. The food started out really good and then the chef changed and if was hard for her to eat with her strict diet. They offered daily specials and the desserts were really good.
