In general we've been satisfied with my mom's stay at wellington. I can't say I'm very happy that I'm now told we have to buy our own wipes and Depends for her. I would think the significant amount we pay every month would cover that.

Checked out this place. Very big. Very nice. Apartments are nicer than mine! Michael was helpful and informative about senior living options

A huge part of its warmth comes from the dedication of Derrick Manley, the Community Relation's Director, whose commitment to both the residents and the broader community reflects the high quality of the facility and its exceptional offerings.

My experience with Wellington Estates was exceptionally positive, due in large part to the professionalism and expertise of Sales Director Derrick Manley. Derrick demonstrates a high level of industry knowledge and a clear understanding of both the community and the needs of prospective residents and their families. Derrick provides thoughtful, transparent guidance without any sense of pressure, ensuring that decisions are well-informed and aligned with individual goals. His attention to detail, responsiveness, and commitment to doing what is right instill a strong sense of trust and confidence throughout the process.

My mom is there and we had a very nice Christmas dinner at the dining hall in the west the step was so good I love the food there

Wellington allowed us to use the auditorium for our christmas party. They were so accommodating and hospitable. They went above and beyond to help our party go smoothly. Everyone had a great time!

Our over 55 community, Hershey’s Mill, recently held our Halloween party at Wellington. There were 100 of us in their beautiful auditorium which is spacious and comfortable. The staff was wonderfully accommodating and the food prepared by their chef was delicious. They made every effort to address our needs and we plan to have several more events at Wellington.

Great experience with the team. Innovative Senior Concepts placed a client in Personal Care. The client has expanded their social circle inside the community and thriving.
