I contacted the Mayflower to request they remove my husband from their mailing list as I was still getting correspondence for my husband who passed away 3 years earlier. I spoke to a very understanding representative, genuinely sorry for the loss of my husband and immediately removed him sincerely apologizing for my loss. I was completely floored a few days later when I received a beautiful card with her condolences on my loss. This was totally unexpected and just made me cry with gratitude. The Mayflower has kind, compassionate people working for them, if I were looking for a place for myself or my loved one, this is exactly where I would go. Thank you for your generosity, you went over and above.
My 84 year old mother was transferred here 1/23/25 after hip replacement on 1/20/25. The facility is great but the care she received or should I say didn’t receive is the problem. Many times I was there after work and no one would even come into her room for to check and see if she needed to use the bathroom or anything. Any time I picked up her clothes to wash they were still wet and reeked of urine. I had been asked by the dietary department if she needed any help with her food and I requested that her food be cut up into bite sized pieces because her dexterity is not all that good. I was told no problem, it would be done, it never happened. She was returned to the hospital on 1/26/25 with an infection that she had to be hospitalized for. I would not recommend this place to take care of anyone.
As part of the Transition Seminar, hosted by Beth B. Logullo, a group from the seminar class was afforded the opportunity to visit The Mayflower @ Winter Park.
After a brief introduction given by Ms. Taylor Womack &
Ms. Gladys Powers, & explain- ing the various types/sizes of the rooms & floor plans, we were told how the system of treating residents, the amenities of the facility & the types of medical staff working
@ the Mayflower.
We were then given a tour of the various recreational rooms available to residents, along with game rooms, exercise room with the latest Physical Rehabilitation equivalent. The heated pool, with easy access & egress to pool, & the use of same for physical therapy.
We then saw a typical 2 bedroom suite, which, if occupied by a resident of Independent Living, would have a full kitchen with refrigerator, dishwasher, stove & microwave oven. The bedrooms were both the same size, each had master bathrooms, with showers equipped with grab bars & foldable seat. All in all, the apartment was spacious & furnished tastefully.
The facility was well maintained, many choices of dining experiences, the staff we came in contact with,seemed to be happy & helpful. And the entire layout of the grounds was well thought out. Wonderful place to down size to, without giving in to the aging process, with similar circumstances to move into & alleviate the worries & woes of aging.
