Elmcroft of Windcrest

Elmcroft is a very adequate assisted-​living facility for people who need just a little help to get along. The home is clean and in good repair, and there are plenty of activities to keep the residents occupied.
Unfortunately, Elmcroft’s memory care (Alzheimer’s) unit leaves much to be desired. The staff does administer medications, but they have no capability to actually manage dementia care. Family members are required to arrange all medical treatment.
Elmcroft can handle Alzheimer’s patients who have been drugged into oblivion, but they are either unwilling or unable to deal with patients who suffer from dementia with behavioral disturbance. We had a loved one who spent just five days at Elmcroft before they gave up on him and kicked him out. Of course, they kept the money we had given them.
Elmcroft is one of the less expensive options for Alzheimer’s/memory-care living. But you definitely get what you pay for. If you’re looking around for a place for a family member, I suggest you look elsewhere.
