Our family's experience

The overall 5 rating is due to the staff, they really looked after Mom. Looking after Memory Care patients takes a special person and they did well. Food 4 overall. It started out in 2024 as a 5, but that chef left, the food was still good after that but not like it had been. Activity wise, they were great when we first arrived. They had a new Memory Care director, and she really engaged them. When they wouldn't let her do the program she wanted, she left. It took awhile for them to get a new Memory Care director. We were only there maybe a month under her so we really didn't get to find out her activity program, but it looked like she was bringing in some ideas.

Not a good experience

Management of the changes twice in less than 6 months sucked. Additionally, they are trying to screw my mother out of her hard earned money after telling her they could no longer care for her. They haven't heard the last of me. They have sent a refund check with no explanation how they arrived at $[fee removed] when the rent was $[fee removed] .I will not cash their check.

A great consideration

Lynridge has made some positive changes in administration. There's a positive energy in the upkeep of faculties. It's a great small community. The caregivers are supportive and go above and beyond. For the food, they simply need to add diabetic options. Previously the kitchen on had one oven that functioned. However Lynridge just added a second main course option. That was a great add. Activities just needed some more adds. And as one of the few males in the center there could be a tad more focus on neutral or masculine options.

Review for Lynridge of Waco

Mom has enjoyed her stay. The property has been bought by another company and the facility is now called Lynridge of Waco. New owners are making improvements. The food has improved since moving there.

Nice facility, nice people, some room for improvement.

They have some wonderful, loving people on the staff. The rooms are the largest we saw when we were looking. The shortcomings are related to staffing and services organization and management: health care is good; however, housekeeping is spotty and occurs randomly. The trash gets emptied most weekdays, but the floors and surfaces don't get much attention. The food service is poorly organized. The servers concentrate on one table at a time- some tables wait over 30 minutes for a server while others are being served dessert. Training in institutional food service is needed; for example, bring the salads out on carts and serve every table at once, then move on to the next course. The Denny's model is too inefficient. If the chef is on vacation, everyone gets cold sandwiches... Activities get scheduled then cancelled. There is little emphasis on welcoming new residents and helping them settle in. Mom complained of loneliness. Family can't be the only source of stimulation. All of these things are fixable.

Our Experience

Lynridge of Waco is a great place for loved ones to reside with others their own age and have someone there 24/7. I just wish it could be more affordable for long term care. However, we are going to have to move our loved one because she simply cannot afford it anymore.

The staff truly care about their work. The activity program is unique and fun. The use of the Spark program keeps the residents engaged and it enriches their lives. This place is special and I highly recommend it.

Very welcoming

Heatis has by far gone above and beyond in helping me feel this is a great place for my mother. They've been able to answer all my questions and reassured me in my doubts of my mother's transition between care. The joy I've felt in seeing my mother being comfortable and well cared for is fantastic. The care givers I've encountered have always been helpful. Thank you for the care you're providing for my loved one.

Great Community for Grandmother

My Grandmother moved in quite a while ago but has moved to memory care. Their activity program in memory care is fantastic! When we go to visit we have to make sure to come at specific times so we don't interfere with her day. They are doing activities all day long and seem to be really engaged in the activities as well. Thank you!

Appreciative Family of Heartis Memory Care

My Mom is in the memory care area, can be challenging at times. However the personnel are respectful and kind to her. Both sides (Mom's friend [name removed] is on assisted living area) call the residents by name. They work hard to engage the residents in activities. I like the bar area-serves both alcoholic and nonalcoholic drinks at their happy hour. Heartis is great for sharing pictures of residents with family.

Review for Heartis Waco

They actually do the activities in memory care and the activities leader goes to residents' room to remind them an activity is about to start. Also, their food is very good. Always a fresh salad before lunch or dinner. Good food Always a desert. Also every holiday season they have special activities and the family is included. I had pre-thanksgiving luncheon and Thanksgiving dinner there with my loved one and they were both very good

A quality facility

The Heartis Waco community itself is very nice, the apartment rooms are really nice size and we have had no issues with that at all. They are understaffed at times so the care is lacking and sometimes the staff seem a little disorganized. We do think they would benefit from like a checklist or something during the onboarding process to make things a little easier.
