Not Your Average Senior Living Community

We wanted to learn a little more about this award-winning business and its impressive online reputation, so we took a few minutes to talk with Kevin Hanlon, the executive director at The Waterford on Highland Colony.

The first question we had for Kevin was what sets The Waterford on Highland Colony apart from their competition in Mississippi. Here’s his response:

“It’s the people, the residents and staff…the entire environment, really. We don’t have a lot of turnover but when we do, we screen them and really make sure they are part of the team. [It is] our sense of community that makes the residents feel so comfortable.”

We also wanted to know what their mission is at The Waterford on Highland Colony and how they work to make the world a better place. Here’s what Kevin had to say:

“Enriching the lives of our senior living residents through delicious food, stimulating activities, and a premiere retirement community. We keep it simple with a beautiful building, great food and great activities. We’re serving a part of the population that is often overlooked and taken for granted. In other cultures, elders are revered and honored. Here they are put away, we don’t want to be inconvenienced by them, or don’t have the time or ability to take care of them. We changed that and their needs and concerns are paramount.”

Building Success Through

When asked about the The Waterford on Highland Colony secret to a strong online reputation, Kevin said:

“The reviews come from doing a good job and providing for our residents.”

Outside of building a powerful online reputation, The Waterford on Highland Colony has gotten their name out there through television ads. This is largely handled by their corporate office, which also oversees the online and social media portion of marketing.

There are so many business owners who would love to build the kind of online reputation that The Waterford on Highland Colony has. Here’s David’s expert advice for them:

“With our clientele, most people find us through the phone book or word of mouth.”
