I am so impressed by the new renovations at Wellington. It is such a vibrant and active community with tons of activities throughout the day. There’s a lovely courtyard with beautiful gardens, and an indoor swimming pool! I love that there is entertainment every Thursday night after dinner and bingo every Friday night! The food is delicious, and it is always nice to see the Dining Team and the Executive Director engaging with the residents during dinner. I highly recommend Wellington!
