What should we ask Westminster Lakeland before signing?
Work through the contract, then the finances, then the care units:
- Which contract types (life care, modified, fee-for-service) and refund plans do you offer, and at what entrance fees?
- May we see your most recent annual report to OIR and your minimum liquid reserve calculation?
- Do contract holders get priority for assisted living and health center beds, and is there a wait for them now?
- If I need memory care, where on this campus would I receive it, and does my contract cover it?
- Could a spouse who does not meet the health criteria join me later, and on what terms?
Contract questions go to OIR's CCRC team (850-413-3153), care complaints to AHCA (1-888-419-3456), and Polk County's Aging and Disability Resource Center is Senior Connection Center.
