There are not enough words to express my appreciation to Rhonda Miller and her staff. The quality of care they gave my PawPaw was exceptional even on the days where he was stubborn. My family was treated with respect, with compassion and with the willingness to help him and my family's needs was amazing. Thank you - for taking such good care of my PawPaw. Y'all are the true heros of Healthcare.
I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the staff at Westminster Health Center. My mother experienced a fall in August fracturing her ankle leaving her immobile, and from the moment of admission, the team made the entire process seamless. Cookie, who works in the front office, was the first person I met. She checked on my mother every single day and always ensured her needs were met. Her compassion and work ethic are truly unmatched. If the healthcare industry had more individuals like Mrs. Cookie, it would be a much better place. No matter how many times my family called, she…

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the staff at Westminster Health Center. My mother experienced a fall in August fracturing her ankle leaving her immobile, and from the moment of admission, the team made the entire process seamless. Cookie, who works in the front office, was the first person I met. She checked on my mother every single day and always ensured her needs were met. Her compassion and work ethic are truly unmatched. If the healthcare industry had more individuals like Mrs. Cookie, it would be a much better place. No matter how many times my family called, she remained patient, kind, and professional whether setting appointments, coordinating transportation, or ensuring staff were present to assist. Nurse Keisha, thank you for always going above and beyond for my mother. Your care and dedication did not go unnoticed. Mrs. Lavern, CNA, thank you for the tender, loving care you provided daily. You had such a tremendous impact on my mother’s healing process, and we will never forget you. If you’re searching for a rehabilitation center for your loved one, I highly recommend Westminster Health Center. The therapy team is outstanding my mother walked out the center at discharge, and the nursing staff truly embodies what compassionate care should look like! Thank you, The Monlyn Family!

Don't come here.
The entire staff is knowledgeable, caring, courteous and outgoing. From cna's, housekeeping, nurses, doctors office staff to the kitchen were outstanding. Special thanks to the physical and occupational therapist Kesley and Stephanie for their directions and instructions. Can't forget Patrick on the second floor, a good young man with a great personality and was willing to go above and beyond for you also a good conversationlist. If I ever need rehab again Westminster Oaks is my only choice. I was also impressed by the longevity of the staff, many had been there 10+ years, a remarkable feat for the healthcare industry. Thank you VERY MUCH James Earp Room 222 7/3 - 7/13/2025
I am so thankful that I live here at Westminster Oaks. Downsizing from a house to a one-bedroom apartment is challenging but very freeing. I have a lot less to worry about and to take care of. I love my one-bedroom apartment at Chason Gardens with a large garden window and a screen hallway (which I call my porch). The grounds are beautiful and something in bloom most of the year and I don't have to take care of it. I enjoy so many things including Monday Night Music and the entertainment brought here by the Cultural Foundation plus all the holiday parties. The food here is excellent most of the time. Sometimes it's exceptional and other times just not something I prefer but there are many choices, and I don't have to shop, cook or clean. I do enjoy making breakfast and an occasional meal in my kitchen. The Fitness Center has so many programs, I've tried many and the staff are always helpful and engaging. They even hold classes in our apartment building thanks to Meredith and Emily. The speakers and classes have something for everyone and often include a field trip. Buses to the Tallahassee Symphony Orchestra and the University Music Association and allowed many of us to enjoy local music without the need to drive and park usually at night. I've lived here two and a half years and have meet so many wonderful people, both residence and staff. Although, I haven't needed any medical support, I'm fully aware that they are there to help when needed. The constant communication through meetings, publications and email keep us informed and up to date. I commend all the staff for their efforts in making Westminster Oaks a beautiful and wonderful place to live.
Staff struggles and manages to provide resident needs.
My wife and I have lived at Westminster Oaks for about 14 years. We remain very enthusiastic about the community. We live in a three-bedroom home on campus.. The provision of landscape maintenance, housekeeping, and home repairs and maintenance (all for no additional charge) makes for easy living. As a gated and patrolled community, it feels very secure. We have many friends there. All kinds of facilities are within easy walking distance of our home, including two fitness centers, a pool and pool house, and a center devoted to lifelong learning. There are plenty of clubs and activities of various kinds on campus. For those who cannot drive, transportation is available for medical visits and shopping. A wide range of medical services is available on campus. Residential facilities are available for people requiring different levels and types of care. Common areas are beautifully landscaped. What's not to like? Five stars.
