The care River Garden provided my mother goes words! The care and dedication of the staff is commendable and their approach to COVID is proactive and in the best interest of patients, staff and visitors! I have to commend three people by name for if not for their commitment to quality care my mother would not. Have been able to come home. Sierna, Discharge Planner Nurse There are not enough words to commend Sierna for her words of wisdom and communication with regard to the process and what Medicare will provide left no room for error. She is a true professional who has great passion for helping others. Melissa, Occupational Therapsit Where to begin to describe what an outstanding professional Melissa is. Her ability to disseminate information goes beyond words. She was able to help my mother reach a greater level of independence than we ever thought my mother would achieve. Her demeanor and attention to detail enabled my mother to regain her ability to care for herself. I can never express my appreciation to her determination at getting mother as independent as possible. Mike, Physical Therapist Wow! What do you say about a professional who is able to help a patient relearn how to walk with assistance but moreover teach the caregiver how to sustain what was learned. Mike was fantastic at encouraging my mothers mobility using a walker and a gait belt while ensuing I was confident in my ability to assist her. I will admit I was very nervous bringing my mother home knowing she needs a lot of hands on care, however, because of the River Garden team, Sierna, Melissa and Mike, I have been able to successfully help my mother maintain as much independence as possible while remaining safe! I can never say thank you for the beautiful gift River Garden has bestowed upon my mother and my family. THANK YOU!!'

Brookdale Mandarin, formerly: Emeritus at Mandarin,…read morehttps://www.yelp.com/biz/emeritus-at-mandarin-jacksonville is where my mother and I decided she should be in order to make sure she was safe from falls and such. We were informed by an outside, third party, that for the services rendered, this is the best value in Jacksonville, which may be but, my opinion is....family needs to be very involved and engaged with the facility. She was there when it was Emeritus and for about a year after Brookdale took it over. While the "core" staff of caregivers stayed the same, there was a "shake up" in the front office and it was noticed by everyone....not only the personnel (employees), but by the residents, families and in the way things were ran. The building is "dated". Prior to assisted living, this was a senior living facility so there is a kitchen area in every apartment. This is a huge waste of space if the resident has no intention of cooking. The staff, as a whole were accommodating. There were several stand outs within the aides, maintenance folks and nurses. I'm giving this location a 3 star simply due to the business office. When your loved one is in the hospital or rehab for an extended time, it is very painful getting the refund due to them for the time that services were not rendered.

It's ok. I caregive for a man here. Most of the staff is nice and caring. Others suck. Like,…read morereally. I'm not too crazy about the director or nurse manager. If you decide on this place I would definitely be involved with your loved one or friend. You have to be here.

My sweet Mom lived at Brookdale Yorktown in Port Orange Fla. for 3 years and I had one PROBLEM…read moreAFTER ANOTHER. Problems like:Brookdale not re-ordering her medications in a timely manner, they were constantly running out of her pain and sleeping medications. Re-ordering her medications was their job, it was in the contract we signed with Brookdale, and they were getting paid big dollars to do so. I had face to face arguments and phone call after phone call with the head nurse and I got every kind of excuse you can imagine. Brookdale was written up by the State of Florida for this. When they did run out of her sleeping pills, I caught a med-tech using another medication as a sleeping pill, Brookdale was written up on this as a violation of state laws as well. Not cleaning her bathroom weekly, which was also in the contract we signed with them and again they were getting paid big dollars for this service. When visiting I had to constantly do checks and follow ups to make sure housekeeping was doing their job. The A/C unit breaking down two of the three summers my Mother lived there. Recieving no help from the Executive Director and having to go to Brookdales corporate office and then having to go to the State of Florida for help in getting the out dated A/C unit fixed. All of the Executive Directors, (3 in 3 years) were totally incompetent of managing this complex. When looking for an assisted living for someone you care for, interview not only the residents but the staff.
