Mom was in this facility and we were not happy with her care. Carefully check out memory care before you leave a parent there. Consistently understaffed and staff that did not remain for any period of time. Don't expect this facility to return money that should be returned.

This is not a place to put a loved one! In the first 6 months, these people had lost two sets of very expensive hearing aids and one set of false teeth. Staff, other than the top positions do not remain in this facility and are constantly changing. The memory care unit is consistently understaffed. My husband and son in law came in to move a piece of furniture and when it came time to leave they were not able to find anyone to let them out of the locked unit. They finally called the front desk and someone came to let them out. There was no one there to watch the 20 dementia patients residing there. We came in another day and found a trail of poop from one end of the unit to the other. Someone finally called in someone from assisted care to help clean up the mess. That person that came in to help clean up was called to go back to assisted unit. I believe there was one person supervising the people in the dementia unit. Will have to write another review to cover other problems!

We have been extremely pleased with our loved ones care at the Wingate Residences community. What has really helped make it a great experience are just the people who work there, and based on the experience so far we would recommend this community to other families.

Very clean. Variety of daily activities. Residents seem happy and are friendly. The pool is a big feature for my mother. The head nurse has been very helpful. It's only been a couple of months so we are still getting adjusted. I do wish they provided an adjustment guide sort of thing or checked in with you about your experience as you are adjusting and learning. Once we filed out the contract and moved in no one from the front office has checked with us regarding our experience so far.

It has been a difficult transition for our loved one but the director [name removed] has just been so incredible to our family and [name removed] who works up at the front desk is outstanding. The dining experience is great the girls working there serving the meals are wonderful but the food is just a little so so. Our loved one has not taken advantage of the activities as of yet but they have so many different things for the residents to do there.

I was very happy with Wingate Residences. The food was good. The people were kind. It was a comfortable, beautiful, homelike atmosphere. They had beautiful landscaping, a swimming pool, exercise classes that were appropriate and modified to the level of the residents. It was a great experience that offered me relief from the weight of being my loved one's sole caretaker. And I am so grateful for the time I got to spend visiting him. I was there often and for long periods of time, and the staff were always welcoming and kind to me. My loved one needed quite a lot of care, and in selecting a place, I had to choose between an assisted living facility with some extra nursing care, or a nursing home. Looking back, I wonder if perhaps a nursing home would have been a better option for his care simply because he needed so much of it - at no fault of Wingate Residences. They are an assisted living facility, not a nursing home. And they are great at what they do. I just wasn't ready for him to go into a nursing home yet, but I also didn't realize how costly hiring hourly nursing care would be. Those are just things to keep in mind if your loved one needs quite a lot of care. But I would recommend Wingate Residences to others and have recommended them to a friend of mine.

My mother in law was a resident at Wingate Residences on the East Side for many years. She was very happy there and it felt like home. Staff were attentive and caring. The meals were wonderful and the special events were a highlight for her. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Wingate residences.

My mother-in-law lived in a lovely apt. here for 2.5 years. Our family was impressed with the caring floor staff, activities, and meals. Unfortunately, near the end of Mom's time at Wingate, she had a medical crisis and was put on hospice, just at the time a new Nursing Director came on board. This Director exhibited a very troubling ignorance about hospice and end of life care. In the days preceding Mom's death, when she could no longer swallow, hospice left specific orders to quit force-feeding her, but this Nursing Director made her staff continue - resulting in painful episodes of Mom aspirating and vomiting. On our mom’s last day of life, the Nursing Director refused to administer comfort meds until confronted by the hospice nurse. The reason I'm not leaving a single star is that the Wingate Corp leaders took the matter extremely seriously, immediately arranging training about end of life care for the Nursing Dir. and her staff.

Every time I visit my mother there I am more impressed with the staff and the way things are so well run. It is a continuing rising level of pleasure and satisfaction to witness again and again the care and thought that goes into every aspect of this charming place. Look no further!

I have a loved one here and she is attended to with gentle interest and a strong sense of being encouraged to move about and experience movies, games, and meals in the dining room. They brought her out of her shell and made her a lovely home to be in and where it is easy to be relaxed and happy!! The staff, from the top down are exceptional!!

I want to praise the staff at Wingate on the East Side for their prompt and compassionate response to a referral that I made on behalf of a patient. They were flexible with schedules, interviews and special requests, and were very adaptable when our plans changed. I was always able to reach individuals there for questions and concerns, and they made the admissions process extremely manageable. I would like to especially mention [name removed], RN and [name removed] for their focused attention and caring.

I would recommend going to take a tour. I highly recommend it. The activities include: online concerts, bingo, physical activities, swimming pool. There are also afternoon lectures by the staff. They have some afternoon snacks. They are allowing visits in the lobby or outside and supplies for their residents rooms.

[Name removed] gave mom and I some awesome information that really helped us decide that Mom is not ready for assisted live yet. Wingate is a beautiful home and I will consider Wingate when mom is ready.
Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:
Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.
Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
Know the Rhode Island regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Rhode Island regulations for Assisted Living.
