I have lived at WT for almost 2 years. I have been retaliated on by the ED and I am under 3 doctors care because of it. Leslie Quainitar the COO doesn't care. There is no accountability here from the COO, Supervisor Paul Markovitsh, ED Carmen Galacia. Two belongings of mine stolen from housekeeping and had items on Inventory Sheet and Markovitsh said that he will not cover it and that is final. This is a legal a document. Subpoenas are going out. Welcome to Orange County Leslie.What do you like most about living here? Answer: The residents. Are there enough caregivers to handle the residents' needs, especially during emergencies? Answer: No Are the common areas pleasant and comfortable for socializing or relaxing? Answer: Yes How would you rate the quality and variety of the meals? (1-5) Answer: 4 Are special diets handled well? Answer: No Is the dining schedule flexible enough to meet your preferences? Answer: Yes How do you feel about the level of social interaction available with other residents? Answer: Good. How was the units offered in this community? Answer: I don't know. Do you feel safe living in this community? Answer: No How well do you think the community handles emergencies or unexpected events? Answer: I don’t know. Are there any hidden fees or unexpected charges? Answer: Probably. Would you recommend this community to others looking for senior living options? Answer: Depends. Is there anything you wish you knew before moving in? Answer: I wish I knew about retaliation.
