I visited this facility really liked this location as it offers the best of everything. From fine dining and golf to museums, beaches, nightlife and entertainment to football games. The proximity to Westminster Woods, Julington Creek, and St. Johns River make great places to explore, picnic and take nature walks. The dining options offer a variety of fresh, healthy foods that looked and smelled delicious. Snacks are available all day every day. The communal activity rooms are all nicely sized and decorated. The staff and man... read more

I visited this facility A tour was scheduled, and we visited the facility. Everything about the facility was well-thought out. The facility seemed to have a lot of amenities that were included in the monthly fees. The person directing our tour was very knowledgeable in all of the activities offered. I was impressed that a local university offers courses for the residents at a very-much reduced course tuition charge. We looked at different floorplans which offered a variety of amenities. The newer area was extremely impressiv... read more

I am a friend or relative of a resident Recently my grandfather was put into assisted living, a separate hall from where he used to live. His caretaker is always right down the hall just the press of a button away. If he needs anything from CPR to a spoon the nurses always come running. Everyone seems to care about the wellbeing of the residents, even the wait staff at the dining hall. Having this campus on a lake not only boosts the looks of the place but it is also a very good place for relaxing and recuperating. Also, som... read more

I visited this facility Westminister Woods was a pretty nice place to visit. The staff was very pleasant and kind, they were very helpful and appeared to be very genuine. The facility was a very nice size, it was clean and well maintained. The cafeteria was also nice, very spacious. I like how they offer the nursing home facility and also an assisted living home as well for those who can function a lot more on their own without much help. You can tell that the residents there are able to make it their home by personalizing t... read more

I am a friend or relative of a resident Westminster Woods is located in Julington Creek on the banks of Julington Creek, a tributary of the St. Johns River. The facility is shaded by live oak trees draped in Spanish moss famously depicted by Harriet Beecher Stowe in her book "Palmetto Leaves." The facility itself is quite old, not in disrepair, but definitely showing an architecture of decades past. The community is large, but feels cozy and quaint. The staff is wonderful and curious, as are the volunteers. Many local church... read more

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident I am very disappointed with Westminster - my brother was there for 2 years - first in the memory care and last in the nursing home section. He was perfectly settled and comfortable in his setting. After/ years he has been forced to leave for wandering during the night. As an Alzheimer’s patient this is not unusual. Instead of addressing the situation and figuring out how to deal with this he has been forced to find a new residence. Totally unfair. Everyone knows a change i... read more

Concerned about Quality

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident Westminster Woods has a reputation for caring for its residents. This all changed when my relative moved from Independent Living to Long-Term Care Living. After 7 years at the facility, my parent is now living in fear that the nurses will not care for her. They have not administered her pain medications as ordered and they remain defensive and aloof. As her Power of Attorney for Healthcare I am very concerned about Quality.

I am a friend or relative of resident Poor management skills and services particularly the Administration in Health Center. It's all about $$$ instead of true patient care. The administrator is all about promises she could not keep. The wheelchairs are in bad shape and has foul odor in the Health Center. Administration would not provide the appropriate wheelchair because they claim it's not their responsibility even if the patient is a resident there. The staff appears to be overworked and mornings tend to be chaotic from me... read more
