The staff has been very friendly and responsive. Activities - they offer several different kinds. Food - is a bit bland. But can ask for S/P. They offer a nice variety of meals. Cleanliness - they keep the common areas very clean and tidy. Very attractive. Rm size - Independent Living is very nice. The bathroom could be a little better as far as the sink area. Assisted Living rooms are not layed out well. And significantly smaller.

Several issues need attention

Staff is friendly. That is a big plus, but…when a resident has an incontinence issue over the weekend, the staff leaves it to dry on the floor. When we come to visit, more times than not, there is dried urine on the floor in the apartment with a very foul odor. Our loved one doesn’t appear to be reminded to brush teeth even though it is apart of the care plan. This should be a given in a memory care setting. Laundry and linens are routinely misplaced and are only sometimes located when we point it out. Short staffing doesn’t seem to be an issue as the staff is usually visible at the desk when we are there. But yet we still have to request the floor to be cleaned where it is obviously soiled. We were over promised and under delivered. This is our only experience with memory care. Maybe it’s the same everywhere. It’s hard to believe this is as good as it gets.

The Gardens Assisted Living and Memory Care

Facilities were great. Communication was terrible. They do not return phone calls. The entry person misled us as to what age in place actually means. Mom was there in memory care 5 days, she had a bad fall and wasn't able to transfer herself to the wheelchair after that so we had to move out. They said that was something she would have to be able to do. So what happened to age in place??? They had about 25 residents in memory care and never had more than 2 attendants on the floor at one time. Apartments were just barely big enough for a double bed and dressers. Food was just adequate nothing you would necessarily say was good, just adequate.

A great choice

The apartment was a good size and very clean. The staff and management was amazing. The girls were very sweet and always there to help. The food was nutritious looking but a little boring and repetitive. I am more than happy to recommend The Gardens to anyone.

Very Disappointed.

First, the salesman [name removed] does not explain things correctly. We were not informed of "age in place" details. They don't take wheelchair bound residents. There were no activities going on the days we toured or on the days our mother was there. That was disappointing. Contacting the salesman, the general manager, or the Memory Care manager was next to impossible. Phone calls were never returned, we had to just keep calling.

This is a beautiful place. We toured the Memory Care side of this Senior Living facility. It has a homey feel, not at all like an institution. We did have a hard time getting calls returned from the marketing side, and that was frustrating. We have chosen to place our family member here and feel good about this decision.

Nice community for the golden years

I liked having a receptionist and sign in/out. Layout of the gardens from entry to dining area is very inviting, clean, food wasn't bad, liked being able to "run a tab" so we could eat w/mom. Didn't like the pharmacy used-take advantage of convenience of delivery etc and prices were crazy. Mom enjoy daily excercise class and staff was pleasant. I loved being able to ring the dog for visits too! Other residents enjoyed as well!!

I have had no negative interactions and observed no negligent actions to date. Everyone I have encountered has been courteous and committed to the residents. They contact me often with care needs and medical concerns of my father. I have no major complaints.

Feels like home.

It's a lot of money but I think it's probably average for what assisted living costs. Staff are very friendly and nice, good care. My mom enjoys the activities and meals. I feel good with her being there. She has the 1 bedroom with a little living room and it's just right for her.

Understaffed

They seem to be understaffed in memory care, necessitating that everyone pretty much receive the same medication on the same schedule regardless of individual circumstances. Same with activity. Activities are geared to the least cognitive resident so that they can be done across the board.

The Gardens Assisted Living and Memory Care review

They need to improve their admission policies and procedures. They said they would do X and then not do. They also had said she could live there before they reviewed all the documentation and denied her last minute. We had only a few days to find a new place to go due to termination notice we had already provided to the current facility. Beyond stressful for us, the family and my mom, and extremely disappointing.
