Rooms are either single or double room. You should never expect much from these places. You do get what you ask for eventually. Sometimes you get oral care and baths if staff have time. But these places are usually short staffed and services and far and few in between. We spent a week here after my mother in law had a stroke and was eventually transitioned to hospice. Our family had a decent experience. We adored our nurse Charleen and CNA Jackie in particular. They were more compassionate, patient, and detail oriented. We befriended quite a few residents while we were there since my children and I spent hours there daily. That really helped to have the whole community of residents and their family members lean in and help take care of us when the staff couldn't. For the residents that have been in rehab before, they did say that Briarwood is their preference. They do get seen daily by the doctors, PT's, and OT's. And although service is slow they seem to get what they need. There were a few disgruntled residents who would on occasion scream for their pain medicine to be on time, especially in the evenings. Overall I was still pleased enough with our experience. I could tell that a lot of the staff were overworked and many of them were truly trying their best. I will miss both the staff and residents that we became really close with. When you share food, gifts, and stories during a time of great trial, the kindness and power of the human spirit really does leave a mark.

The kitchen staff tries hard to work with little, so not on them,but the meals are the kink in the Rehabs armor. Over cooked vegetables, under cooked rice and mostly boring mains. They do try to make the best of a tiny budget. All in all Briarwood is a fine Rehab Facility of which I am a Resident.

He ended up with a terrible skin infection on his penis, scrotum and rectum. The last night he was there he wasn't changed from 5:30 pm to 8:30 am.

The area around the sink handles was black and brown with dirt and mold. His room floor was filthy.

There is a wall of portraits showing only staff who have worked there for at least 8 years. I'd say there are at least 30 photos.

The food is nourishing and delicious. We sing the praises of Arbor Terrace to everyone we meet.

I placed my father in assisted living here and he was there for almost 2 years. The first few…read moremonths were OK but it's steadily declined from that point forward. They did not care for my father. They pretty much left him in his room to rot. The food is almost an edible as I had to order him DoorDash, at least five times a week, hire outside care to come in for 10 hours a week because he was just not getting any attention. The head nurse Angie blames her staff for all of her inadequacies, and David the director does not listen to criticism or make any sort of changes. I would not let my father stay here if it was completely free.

It takes a special person with a caring heart to work in this setting and that's what you will find here at The Fountainview Center.

My Gail has been living there for over 8yrs having early onset Alzheimer's, during this time, she…read morehas received nothing but great care and love. The facility, like all nursing homes/long term care facilities, has a hard time retaining caregivers, as it's a hard job, but despite everything, they've always took care of my girl and the other residents. Recently, the had a change in management, and in my opinion, it was for the better, as Julius, who's been there a while and Snr. nurse, has been busy correcting and improving some things that the previous manager neglected, but at no time, did the level of care drop. I would highly recommend this facility for anyone looking for a place for a loved one with Alzheimer's or dementia to live.

To say they are the finest agency I have ever worked with is just not enough. The love and care and compassion that they have showed my 90 year old Dear Aunt Jane is above and beyond anything I have ever experienced in the service industry. They ALWAYS came through in the worse of circumstances and no matter what I had to change they changed with me. Caroline and Susan are 2 of the best, hands down, in their company in all aspects of their business. The Angel they sent to us, that took care and loved us as if we were her family. Brenda Brown is nothing short of a Angel on Earth. There is no one better for this type of loving and care giving work. When I contacted Visiting Angels so many years ago, they promised me the perfect person for My Aunt Jane and they nailed it!! Brenda has been the loving force of keeping my Aunt safe and loved and totally cared for. She is an Angel on earth. She loves my Aunt and cares for her even better than I could do. Brenda is our family now.. I can not and will not imagine how we will be able to ever repay her for what she has given to us as a family. If ever your family is in need of someone to come and help you with what ever you are facing in regards to home health care, as I said before, words are not enough for me to be able to tell you how highly myself and my family can recommend this agency. Now that our time has come to end our relationship with Visiting Angels, I shall forever be indebted for all the love and compassion they have shown to our Beautiful Aunt Jane and to my entire family. Please reach out to this agency in your time of need and I promise all your concerns and worries will vanish knowing your loved one is so well taken care of. I will miss everyone so much and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart!!! Laura House

We needed a place that would take care of normal daily responsibilities for him plus cook his meals. Everywhere we looked had a typical nursing home feel to it and I was so sad having to consider placing my dad in such a place. He has such a huge spirit, he is the life of the party and he is super active and social. But it seemed that the other facilities were either independent senior living OR full nursing care.

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.
