you well I like that feeling of knowing everybody knowing their names and being comfortable to ask if I'm gonna join them for dinner it's just such a friendly comfortable feeling we checked a lot of the places we went to virtually everyone in the area we were impressed with the niceness of the people that the staff were friendly accommodating people were friendly the residents spoke to us as we walked through it felt like something other than an institution it's all one kind of residents our home we like this because it's small and it was family-oriented this is like a five-star hotel but in a residence which is you can't find any places and we had made so many new friends that we wouldn't have if we were isolated in our own home we got a an invitation to come to a briefing session and a reception and so we did we were very impressed with what we found here we found 18 acres and we had to decide what we were going to do with it and we talked about it as a family and our staff which said well we need assisted living and we need an independent of it the three types of care can be they can get what they need when they need it and they can age in place and then I heard more about the Batum family and their reputation and Fairfax but they really care about the people that they help and that their facilities are top-notch I think they advantage to having family members on-site every day is that their standards and values are in place every day our family is involved we care about what we do and we're always looking for new things to do new ways to do things to make it the best it can be very approachable that's one of the benefits of having a owner on-premise as far as the bane of family they are our family they avail themselves to us when wherever we need them they're there for questions and answers working for the Batum family is a very unique experience Robert and Charmaine bainham the founders of the organization they really care deeply about each operation and that really carries through on the staff we look for that we hire that we have high expectations and our focus is on customer service I always say we're always open to constructive criticism we needed to survive I needed to grow so I do make an extra effort to be here a few nights a week to be available to speak with meet and greet residents and get a pulse check as you enter the woodlands you'll come into a grand lobby area with a beautiful fireplace beyond the lobby area we have a lovely living room with multiple seating groups you'll see a gaming card room adjacent to the living room and directly off the lobby we have a lovely library that we keep daily newspapers in and monthly magazine subscriptions and then moving down the hallway the other way you'll see our main dining room where we serve restaurant quality meals and our Bistro area and then further down the hallway we have the Markey movie data which we show daily movies you have a private dining room which is elegantly decorated for your use with families friends and then beyond that we have some community areas for activity events and other programming we have our business center for the residents of the amenities in this area are similar to what you'd find in a hotel full service beauty salon which includes pedicure station manager station and full service hair styling for men and women across the hall from our salon we have a full-service gym it's open 24 hours a day we also offer a saltwater pool which is easier on their skin so you're not overwhelmed by all the chemicals that you'll find in a traditional pool we also have available luxurious locker room for your guests or your family members that may come in and use the facilities with you on our second floor we also have a ballroom that we have performances in community meetings you can move on outside and we have a total of 17 acres here between our two properties and we have over a mile walking trails through the wooded areas The Woodlands offers a wide range of apartment styles a total of 15 different plans 850 square feet - almost 1,900 square feet lots a variety from which to choose and the right fit and according to their budget I really never imagined that we would be able to have an apartment as large as we did I mean the other places we looked at it was like can we get into 14 to 1500 square feet and I would never forget sitting down with Ellen and she says well what do you think about this we have a combination dining room living room which gives a feeling of nice openness the kitchen is quite large with lots of cabinets we have our own laundry room in our apartment that's important a lot of these communities don't you have to go down the hall and wait your turn to use the machines we run the restaurant as just like any fine-dining public restaurant you may go out to we have professional chef cooks in the kitchen that have real professional experience of fine dining operations the food is well planned well presented the server's never say I'm sorry I can't help you you're not in my station you know that I'm so impressed with that we do offer a menu that focuses on low-fat low-sodium heart-healthy preparations from appetizers to homemade soups we have great desserts that we make in-house from scratch along with the rest of the menu we're making from scratch items the food and the food service so important and so good here the Bistro which is open at lunchtime is open for two and a half hours dinner time you have two and a half hours that's really unusual day food here compares with a fine dining restaurant I've never had such good food in my life even when Irish does the cooking this environment at The Woodlands is very independent it is also very alive the first thing I do is check the activities that are going on around here for the day or for the week in advance and then each day see what what I can fit in to my other schedule it's very dynamic I have residents come to me all the time in my office and we speak about possible events it's my job to make sure they happen there is so much available here all kinds of card games bridge many many activities as far as people coming in to enter Pena's concerts and there's recitals and there's bingo they have movies every night and popcorn to eat when you watch it right we have a director of fitness who will train you how to use the equipment and then develop a workout routine for you I have stretching classes in the mornings then I have afternoon classes that entail the stretching and the balance but also working a little bit with weights and a little bit more strength and everything that I do is it with no additional fee to the residents the things that make the woodlands so unique the owners for the most caring people I've ever met and as a result that's the way they select their staff from the cleaning the serving crew they're wonderful if a plug is out of place if the shades won't pull all you do is get on the phone it's awfully nice at 3 o'clock in the afternoon but I don't have to wonder what I'm going to cook for dinner and it's even nicer that I don't have to worry about cleaning my apart people do that for us the cleaning is immaculate they do it as you would want it we're always ensuring that there is their apartment is always clean and um really and it's always welcoming for their family member this is their home so we have to give them the best stone this is the best service that we can be you have everything you need right here for the first time ever we could park in a garage and not every community has that in fact most do not I go to the beauty parlor here very often and it's so convenient to just get on the elevator or walk down the stairs and there's the beauty parlor right there we offer transportation from 8:30 to four Monday through Friday for residents they can call and whether it's two weeks from now or same day we can give them a ride to their doctor's appointments shopping or personal errands whatever they choose here the more dense we take care of all those items you have to take care of the home we take care of all electrical hanging pictures plumbing air conditioning whatever you need done in your room should we go we also have a preventative maintenance program where we go on the river silly we go through all the fixtures make sure he's working the doors and latching properly the fact that the bane of healthcare family has had me as a full-time chaplain for 16 years shows that that there they are very concerned about the spiritual life of our families in every way what we expected of The Woodlands turned out to be true after only two weeks I think it was here I said to Sylvia it feels like home and it was home and I've never looked back I've never regretted it I've been so happy we've been here when you realize how quickly time flies we wanted to be in a place where we could have years that we can look forward to a really enjoying being there and taking part in all the things that that woodlands offers and that if we waited a whole lot longer who knows it's very comfortable to be with people that are all professional although by the way have a wonderful story of their life and we become a big family I have made a lot of friends here which was a big surprise I didn't realize we would be so close so quickly and I feel like I've known most of these people all of my life
