What this means for your family

Sanctuary at Woodland Village is highly regarded for its vibrant social life and compassionate staff, making it an excellent choice for independent seniors. However, families should be aware that the facility has strict criteria for memory care and may not be equipped to handle complex post-hospital dietary needs, so clarify these policies early in the admission process.

Sanctuary at Woodland Village receives high praise for its welcoming atmosphere, active social calendar, and dedicated staff members who often go above and beyond for residents. However, some families have reported significant frustrations regarding rigid admission policies for those with memory issues and a lack of support for residents returning from hospital stays with specific dietary needs. While most residents and families are very satisfied, the facility's inflexibility during medical transitions is a notable point of friction.

Key Review Excerpts

My mother is now 101 years old, she has received the best care I could ever have hoped for. The staff here are devoted, caring and wonderful people.

Long-term resident's family · 2019★★★★★

My dad was on hospice care and the night shift support lady knew his life history, she said he wasn't sleeping much so they had talked a lot, sang Christmas songs, a very kind lady.

Resident's family · 2023★★★★★

I was not warned that she would need to be evaluated before returning back to the facility. They told me that she could not return to the facility because she needed a low sodium diet.
