Key Review Excerpts

Carlos was absolutely amazing and caring taking care of my grandpa! He truly cared about him and our family which made this troubling time just a little bit easier.

Memory care family member · 2025★★★★★

The compassionate care the entire Winfield Senior Team gave my Dad was a blessing to our Family. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a top notch facility that treats everyone with dignity and respect.

Long-term resident's family · 2025★★★★★

Biggest mistake was sending my mother to WSLC for rehab services after a hip replacement. I do not recommend this location. I removed my mother after a few incidents.
