    Review Summary

    The following is an AI generated summary of the reviews of the community from across the web.

    Reviews of Elàn Spanish Springs, now known as Watercrest, present a mixed picture of the facility's quality and services over time. Initially, the facility was highly praised for its impressive amenities and the quality of care, with one reviewer mentioning their aunt's desire to move there based on its merits. Staff members, particularly named individuals, were highlighted for their kindness, compassion, and attentiveness, making residents feel cared for and supported.

    However, following the acquisition by Watercrest, several reviews indicate a decline in service quality. Concerns were raised about the deterioration in food quality, reduction in services such as housekeeping and medication checks, and the discontinuation of popular activities and amenities like painting classes and weekend bus service. Despite these criticisms, some families and residents reported positive experiences, noting the cleanliness of the facility, the caring nature of the staff, and the overall environment that allowed their loved ones to thrive.

    Specific issues mentioned include problems with Wi-Fi connectivity, air conditioning failures, and challenges in getting necessary accommodations for residents with special needs. Despite these challenges, some reviewers appreciated the staff's efforts to communicate and address concerns, highlighting a team approach to care.

    Overall, while there are reports of a caring and attentive staff and some satisfied residents and families, there are also significant concerns about the facility's management, amenities, and the quality of care following the change in ownership. Prospective residents and their families may need to weigh these factors carefully.
