Hickory Senior Living

My dad is at Magnolia Manor and doing well! I would rate a 4 on everything except #5.Administrative staff. For that one, I would rate a 3. They are friendly but some times it's hard to get a hold of someone or they're slow to respond. That's been a little difficult since my sister and I live in a different state. The staff and other residents are friendly and welcoming. From what I've seen of the food, it's better than what is often found in facilities.

I understand how hard it is to find quality staff. However, there has been a lot of complaints about one of the nurses at this facility. (Not [name removed], which no longer works there) I personally experienced it myself on a Friday evening at 6pm. I was called and told my family member was out of medication that he takes everyday. This is a very long drawn out story but I was 4 hours away at the time and practically had a meltdown over the phone with her. My expectations of every single issue that comes along isn't at the very top however, had I known this before 6pm in a Friday it would not have happened this way. My sister and I are happy with Magnolia Manor. Our dad is safe, clean clothes, clean sheets, 3 meals a day, happy neighbors, he loves being there. I do have a problem with who is planning the medicine dispensing. I'm not trying to say micromanage everything. I'm just wanting better skilled healthcare providers (mainly nursing staff) with a pleasant attitude and good communication skills!

The staff at The Commons are very friendly and professional. There is not an option for free housekeeping, the tenants pay for that. The staff always communicates with the family. The move-in process was simple. For the meals, the staff and tenants both cook the meals, every lunch and every Friday. I would recommend the facility to other people. The location of the building is convenient to everything in Huntsville.

The layout of the rooms was wonderful and spacious. There was a wonderful courtyard with rockers. Many employers were wonderful, but several were meh. Food was not impressive. Many times I visited and they were serving frozen food that had been put in the oven

It is a small intimate setting with a sweet staff. My relative has not been real happy with the food or activities, but she likes the caring nature of the staff. They have been responsive to my needs as well. It is a good price compared to many other assisted-living facilities in the area.

Recommend if not needed for memory care. Need to assist the residents more at night.

I did want mom closer. But this facility was nicer and cleaner than the ones close to home. And we have family in Corinth so they can visit more often as well. We also have her sister staying there and is a blessing to them both. Having a nurse practitioner that visits weekly is a huge asset that eliminates the need to go to multiple outside doctors.

Seabrook missing a great opportunity to make residents more active. The Spanish Fort Community Center is 12 minutes away and we COULD be involved at least a couple times a week where a plethora of activities await residents.

She is in a better place than alone at home - it was close proximity to my house. My mother has improved since she has been there. She has met friends there and I think she will only get better.

Mom seems pretty happy there but is sad with some turnover with staff that have left. I would like to see an exercise program there for the seniors to help with stretching and low impact movements to prevent stiffness and help with mobility. I feel for the price there should be more activities for the residents to motivate more involvement with peers.

I would recommend it. The other residents are friendly, the staff is caring, the food is good and I'm confident my dad is receiving good care. He is happy there as well. We picked this community for its location, the staff and overall feel of the community.

Based on the experience I have had so far, the staff members working there are very helpful and surrounding. However they have some areas they could improve on so on the moment, I would maybe recommend this community to other families.

Based on the experience we have had so far, we can say that The Dogwood Corinth community is very clean and the staff members are ice. They could maybe increase the amount of activities they have for the residents on the memory care side.

My loved one is currently a resident at Magnolia Manor at Tupelo and the experience has been very good so far. Communication with the family is good. The food and housekeeping are both good, also. My loved one has certainly been accepted with open arms. We are pleased with our decision to move our loved one to Magnolia Manor at Tupelo and would recommend this facility to others.

Our family had an in person tour with Country Cottage Huntsville and we found the tour experience to be very informative and they had a smaller number of residents which we also liked. However this location was just not as desirable for us.

It is nice having an on-site therapy here at Seabrook Pointe. However they could improve on the personnel staff turnover

The reasons for the numbers 4 ratings had to do with CoVid restrictions and some difficulty with administrator on assisted living wing. Many of regular activities were put on pause because of Covid restrictions but those that were offered were great. In our experience, all nurses and caregivers were great. Our one difficulty had to do with above mentioned administrator. She was difficult to contact or get answers from, her decisions weren't always in line with info we had been given. In general, she proved to be more difficult to work with than any other personnel. overall our experience with Oak Grove was very positive and we would highly recommend this community to others.

Country Cottage is a very very clean community, there are no fowls odors at all. They have fresh candles lit everywhere. There is a really nice fireplace, great furniture to sit on, and several different TV rooms. Our loved one is a foodie and he has had no complaints regarding the meals. As far as activities go - they have battled covid a couple of times so occasionally the activities are limited. However they usually have a calendar posted up with activities, and our loved one enjoys being apart of their walking group. They also have fresh baked cookies 24/7. We would absolutely recommend this community to other families.
