This place is phenomenal…read more I am so emotional after my business meeting there today that I almost can't take it. My grandmother didn't have that much dementia, but the place where we "placed" her was not nearly as wonderful as this Emeritus location. I think she would have been a great candidate for one of their "wings" - if only she had lived here and not in Rome, maybe we could have had her there. Here's the deal - Emeritus has 11 metro-Atlanta facilities, four that are dementia-specific, so to speak, and over 400 locations nationwide. From meeting with one of the key folks today, and meeting other staff and directors, it is clear that they are committed to the very best in patient care and treatment. Each resident has a nameplate on the door, and a photo/collage type thing next to their door with whatever they feel portrays them best- family pics, notes, etc. Even better, the four "sections" of the facility are decorated like....things that make you happy! My favorite was the "beach" themed room- and the hair salon! In one corner of a wing, they even have an old-fashioned mirror/dressing table and vintage dresses next to it. Wow. Beyond the aesthetics, it was clear that the staff really cares, and that anyone whom I love would be well tended to at this place...I witnessed staffers calling everyone they saw by name, carefully tending to the sofas in the lounge area, checking on people in their rooms or in the common dining area or group activity area. Really, it was - overwhelming. Bob Carr and staff do an incredible job, it seems - if I get totally *out there* one day, for whatever reason, this is the kind of place I would want to be.

Staff is not readily available and are not consistent at all about checking on the residents, getting meds to residents in a timely manner , or answering their callbells in a timely manner. My 93 year old mother has private duty care because the staff contact is lacking. There doesn't seem to be much administrative oversight and the inmates(staff) seem to be running the asylum. I wish I could recommend this place, but for the cost I suggest you keep looking. Also, there is one resident that has been harassing my Mom's CNAs in the dining room and in the parking lot without any intervention by the staff or administration. Today my mother waited one and a half hours for her meal to be served to her table , even though she was one of the 1st people seated in the dining room. I could go on and on , but I think you get the idea.

I have given them multiple chances to redeem themselves but they failed so I will write this…read morereview. My take on Hospice. We did both in home and inpatient. The caregivers inpatient were overall amazing. Its the promises they made to entice you to bring your loved one there..... and then fail and fail again that you need to know about. Hospice is pretty much no care other than cleaning. What we really thought we would get was professional counseling. We were promised counseling for our mother who was losing her husband of 70+ years, for their children, grandchildren, great grandchildren.... Nothing like we were promised. We were told after he passed they would reach out and support us and her the next week and never heard from them. I called and asked... no call back. I called again... finally someone said they thought we lived on the opposite side of town ????? They even made an appt with our mother before christmas, having me leave work to be there and then stood her up. So, remember all the bells and whistles arent going to be there. The staff at the facility was great... just the sales pitch and delivery was way apart. Still waiting for them to fulfill their promises but, they got their money and moved on. I was offended when i received a solicitation not once but twice to donate money to their foundation.... the literature even mentioning how they offer bereavement support. They offer but they just dont deliver.

We had a beautiful experience with Seasons. Mom was under their care for a month and a half while…read moreliving in our home. They went out of their way to make sure she always had her medications to keep her comfortable - including one time when a nurse drove back and forth to obtain a signature from a doctor for a new script. She wanted my Mom to be comfortable over the weekend and was determined to make sure she had it as soon as possible. The delivery driver, Micheal, always called before he delivered equipment and was extremely kind with Mom. Our nurse, Asiyah, was a dream. My Mom had the utmost respect for her because she was so compassionate as well as a great listener. I adored her because she was readily available by text, called me often, listened, and genuinely loved Mom. Mom had visits from sweet Caroline - who referred to Mom as Mama as she tenderly helped her shower, or give her foot rubs, or even just watch Judge shows. The music therapist, Anna, was such a calming presence. She has the voice of an angel and has a repertoire of songs to pull from - she even sung some songs in Spanish to Mom. Everyone we met was so kind and patient - the chaplain, other nurses, social workers... and were all available via text - it felt so personal. Even after Mom died, the texts and phone calls kept coming in to check on me, offer grief support for the children, and to share their love of Mom. My only feedback would be to work on the response time with the toll-free number - it could be more efficient. However, I am so grateful that everyone gave us their cell numbers and were available via text or call when I needed them. I highly recommend Seasons.
