Woodside Place Assisted Living

Our family is incredibly grateful to the staff at Woodside Place Assisted Living for the exceptional care they provided to our dad. During the final five years of his life, he lived in several care settings, and I can honestly say that the time he spent at Woodside Place was the only period when we did not worry about his safety or the quality of his care. The staff consistently treated our dad with dignity, respect, patience, and genuine compassion. They didn’t just meet his physical needs—they celebrated him as a person. Whether it was recognizing special occasions, spending meaningful time with him, or simply showing kindness in their daily interactions, they made him feel valued and loved. As I recently prepared a slideshow in memory of my dad, I came across so many photos and videos of him with the caregivers. Seeing the smiles, laughter, and the tenderness with which they cared for him brought tears to my eyes. Those moments confirmed what we experienced every day—that he was truly cared for by people with servant hearts. We especially want to thank Toyin for the extraordinary love and compassion she showed our dad. Her kindness reflected the type of Godly love and compassion the Bible speaks of. We regularly witnessed her advocate for our dad and for other residents, always ensuring they were treated with dignity, respect, and genuine care. Our family will never forget the difference she made in his life and in ours. Choosing an assisted living facility for someone you love is one of the hardest decisions a family can make. Woodside Place gave us peace of mind during a difficult season, and that is a gift we can never repay. We will always be thankful for the care, dignity, and love they showed our dad. If we could change one thing, it would simply be that we had found Woodside Place sooner.

I work in the healthcare industry and I happily give Toyin and Woodside Place a 5 star review. From the immaculately clean and decorated home to the fabulous outdoor space, and safe neighborhood. Not to mention the excellent care you will receive form Toyin and her incredible staff. Searching for a place for a loved one can be overwhelming and difficult to navigate, not to mention draining on the pocket book. Woodside place is a great option for senior living that is affordable, and will give you the peace of mind that your loved one is being taken care of. Toyin can walk you through it every step of the way. Her compassion, and drive to help anyone she can is nothing short of spectacular! I highly recommend Toyin and Woodside place!!

My frail elderly sister was falling frequently from medical issues, unable to live alone. We researched our options –from assisted living facilities to nursing homes. Most noticeable of all was the short staffing industry-wide, many patients to few caregivers. Several case managers suggested residential care facilities, in particular Woodside Place Assisted Living. The first thing we noticed was that the home is located in a beautiful established neighborhood, seasonally decorated and sparkling clean throughout. Not institutional at all, but welcoming with its homey vibe. Toyin Akinyode, owner and on-site manager, is a licensed pharmacist, inspiring confidence with her medical background. Her joie de vivre is contagious. Not short-staffed here. There are two licensed caregivers on-site 24 hours a day. The maximum of six residents have a call button at their fingertips. Toyin and her staff are so incredibly attentive, encouraging and compassionate with my sister. They keep us informed of anything we need to know and are quick to respond to any questions or concerns. We could not have picked a better place for her. We felt peace of mind, knowing that she was thriving in her new home.
