Key Review Excerpts

Amy did a great job explaining everything that Wesley has to offer followed by a tour of all the amenities and a couple of apartments. We are not ready to make a decision yet but we were very impressed.

Prospective resident's family · 2026★★★★★

My husband received good care from the team. There were things beyond their control that were very disappointing. There is no diabetic menu available. Desserts were encouraged in the dining area even if not ordered when the menu was completed.

Resident's spouse · 2025★★★☆☆

Wesley Adult Day Care is staffed with extremely dedicated, Mom loves going 3- days a week. Thank you!
