A living option for seniors or individuals who require assistance with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, or medication management while maintaining a level of independence. Assisted living facilities offer personalized care plans and social activities that promote quality of life for their residents.
Independent Living
Designed to help older adults who want to maintain an active and independent lifestyle, these communities offer services and amenities that cater to residents’ needs, while encouraging a sense of community and freedom from the responsibilities of owning a home.

Agent Confidential

I want to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional care my father has received at Wildewood Downs Assisted Living. Each time we speak, he shares how kind and attentive the staff is. It is evident that he is treated with genuine respect and compassion, not simply as a resident. As a daughter, there is no greater comfort than knowing your parent is in capable, caring hands. I would also like to highlight the outstanding support provided by Danielle, who works with my father on his weekly exercise sessions. He consistently speaks highly of her professionalism and reliability. She arrives prepared, on time, and with thoughtful, creative plans to help him build strength and confidence. What stands out most is her ability to encourage him in a way that feels supportive rather than overwhelming. She challenges him appropriately while ensuring he always feels safe and respected. This balance has made a meaningful difference in his progress. Beyond her technical skill, my father deeply values Danielle’s warmth and genuine care. He feels seen and supported as a whole person, not just a patient. He looks forward to her visits, and the positive impact she has had on his physical and emotional well-being has been significant for our entire family. Thank you, Danielle, for the compassion and dedication you bring to his care. It has truly made a difference.

I came to Wildewood to visit my aunt on the rehab unit. The community was nice and clean. The rehab unit was clean and had a friendly environment. At the time of my visit my aunt had just finished eating lunch. I asked her how is the food and she said she enjoys it especially the fried chicken. She seems happy here and is well taken care of. I would definitely recommend this community for anyone looking for short term rehab needs.

Wildewood Downs is an excellent community. I would recommend this place to anyone. The staff is truly top tier, and I have not had a single bad experience since my mother has been here. Everyone is kind, helpful, and professional. I want to give a special shout-out to Latoya Dreher. She consistently goes above and beyond for residents and their families. There has never been anything I’ve asked of her that she didn’t handle with care, compassion, and excellence. She truly stands out. I also want to recognize Cortney Christy, who is amazing as well. Both of these ladies make a world of difference, and I’m grateful for them.

I do my clinicals at Wildewood Downs, and I am beyond impressed with how well everyone works as a team and how genuinely they care for their patients. The staff has great attitudes, and the environment is very welcoming and supportive. I had the pleasure of speaking with a CNA, Latoya Dreher, who shared that she has been working there for a while and truly loves it. She encouraged me to apply once I finish school, which really meant a lot and made me seriously consider it. Overall, this is an amazing facility, and I give it a well-deserved five stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.
