Visitors

Visitors to the residents of WLRC are encouraged. All visitors are required to check in at the front desk of the Administration Building and obtain a Visitor Pass from an Administrative Assistant. Exceptions to this are Guardians or visitors accompanied by a member of the management staff or their representative. After normal business hours, visitors may use the phone outside of the Administration Building to call Security, who may issue a Visitor Pass.

Visitors are asked to present the Visitor Pass at the resident’s home or Day Program area upon arrival. Security will be called to assist any unauthorized person(s) arriving without a Visitor Pass. Visitors are also asked to observe any medical or program restrictions necessary for the welfare of the resident. 

In common courtesy to all who reside in the home, it is recommended to call ahead and schedule a visit, but not required. Arrangements will be made with the appropriate staff regardless of whether or not the visit was scheduled in advance. Please understand that at times, there may be restrictions or limitations in place regarding visitations.
