Mainstay Healthcare Management

My mother moved in to Ivy Springs Manor over two years ago. The place is very clean and inviting. The food is very good (the times I have eaten there with her) and everyone is always very pleasant. My mom enjoys going on the many outings they offer. The have parties fairly often and it is nice to see all of the staff there enjoying themselves. They all seem to really like their jobs. It is also nice to see all of the families of the residents. There is a lot of family involvement which is very important. Since it is not possible for my mother to live at home, this place is the next best thing!

the caregivers are great with the residents. this is a memory care only facility and was well thought out. the floor plan is conducive for keeping people as active as possible. access to the residents is outstanding. my wife was in daycare and respite before becoming full resident this week. I feel good knowing my wife is loved and safe and well cared for 24 hours a day. Having a RN on staff and on site is a big plus. The food is great and geared to the residents dinning ability. My wife is kept busy all day and rarely goes to her room. Socialization is practiced and her level of peace is noticeable. I am well satisfied that I chose the right place for my wife.

Ivy Springs Manor has been an absolute blessing and comfort for me and my family. Since moving my father there a little less than a year ago, I have seen such a dramatic change in his contentment and demeanor. He suffers form Alzheimer's and resides in the memory care unit, and his level of peace and calm has improved dramatically. The staff is warm and caring and truly gets to know your loved one. At his previous assisted living facility, the staff seemed unhappy, overworked and stressed out. I have never seen an inkling of this kind of behavior at Ivy Springs. The caregivers seems happy and cooperative, and are routinely checking in with me on ways to improve my father's daily life or just communicating positive things that may be happening with him. I cannot say enough good things about the amazing staff, and the peace and comfort it brings me knowing that he is safe and cared for.

Preferable community because of smaller size. Sales Director Krystal Brookins is fantastic! She is thorough and caring.

I think it's a nice, classy place but for my brother, he isn't as independent as I thought, so he's requiring more help. They are helping him the best they can, even though it's not what they need to do. The manager of the Savannah has been great and helpful.

The staff at Atria Mableton is very good, they are all very pleasant. If you ever have a question about anything there is always someone that is able to answer it. I really can't even think of anything they could do to improve. They are a small home-like atmosphere which is what initially attracted me to them. They were the first place I went to and after visiting there and then other places they stayed number one.

My mother was demented and sometimes difficult, but the skilled staff at Elmcroft gave her the best possible care for the last years of her life. She went from being eager to leave to loving to live at Elmcroft. The care met the highest professional standards, and what's more it was loving. I recommend Elmcroft of Halls to all looking for a fine assisted living facility.

The staff at Atria Mableton is extremely friendly and welcoming. They give great attention to details. It is a very nice and clean facility.

She is doing good so far, it's a very nice facility. The facility is clean, and the staff is helpful, and friendly. The food is very good. We have no complaints, as of yet. We are happy with them.

Everything has gone very well with Sterling House, we're very pleased with it. They keep everything looking nice and clean, the employees are all very friendly, and they take good care of the people here. They also do a great job with the food, it's been tasty every time I've tried it!

Great place,friendly staff,residents seemed happy, rooms are good size

My 75 year old mother and I couldn't have been more pleased with her recent second stay and the first stay. Incredible nurses that care for their patients. Thanks so much Savannah!!

Things have gone very well at Autumn Leaves! It's a very nice looking community, and everyone has been very friendly. They do an excellent job communicating with families, and are quick to let you know if anything goes wrong or answer any questions you may have. They've been able to provide everything they promised in terms of care, and are taking great care of our loved one!

We used this facility briefly for some respite care for a loved one, and we though they did a great job overall! It was a nice looking place, the staff were very friendly, and my loved one seemed to enjoy her time there.

Where do I begin to tell my story about Autumn Leaves. My mother was in an Assisted Living facility in Hendersonville, NC. Her memory was beginning to fail her, but we didn’t think too much of it. In early April she broke her hip and she went to a skilled nursing facility for rehab and recovery. She was recovering, however, my sisters and I realized that Mom’s memory issues were more than what we thought and we began to understand that she was in the mid stage of Alzheimer’s. I am the youngest of three sisters and it was tasked to me to find a suitable “Home” for Mom in Georgia. (I am the closest, one sister is in CA the other is in NY). So the search begins. My daughter found an organization called Senior Helpers. They were instrumental is narrowing my search to a few facilities in my area. I visited all of them, and saved Autumn Leaves for my final destination. I cry every time I think of the first time I met Kim Waid. The love and compassion for my situation was evident and REAL. As the daughter, you are very close to the situation and it is very emotional to realize your Mom now has a new “Normal” that has to be accepted and understood. The staff at Autumn Leaves helped me so much to understand where my Mom was at and what to expect. Everyone, and I mean everyone on staff is trained in memory care and play an active role in the residents lives. (My Mom is sweet on their Maintenance Manager Michael, he is her calming effect when she gets upset) Transferring a resident from another state is a feat in itself. I was so confused and concerned about all of the logistics in doing this. To my relief and my surprise, when the time came, Susan Tidwell (Executive Director) and Christa Hoffman (RN) got up early on a Wednesday morning and drove to Hendersonville, NC (a 4 hour trip) to personally meet my Mom and assess her for the transfer. I cannot tell you the relief and gratitude I felt knowing that they were there with me for the entire journey. It has been a month now that Mom is at “Home” in Autumn Leaves. There were some good days and bad days, however, the staff were comforting and supportive of me and my Mom and assured me she would settle in. They explained any move is traumatic, and when you are older and have Alzheimer’s the change can be very stressful for my Mom. Just the other day, my Mom was not feeling “right” so to be cautious the Dr. and staff suggested she go to the ER to get checked out. She checked out just fine. The best part was she said when she was in the ER, she wanted to go Home. When we got her back to Autumn Leaves she had a big smile on her face seeing the staff and said “Thank God I am Home”. If you want the best care for your loved one Autumn Leaves is where they will get it and feel like they are “Home”

Mom hasn't moved in yet, her official move-in date is the 29th, but she is excited and pumped about having her own space and the staff that took her around the facility couldn't have been more positive and enervating. Steve was so kind; bought her flowers and a quilting book because I told him that was her passion. Annie is dynamic and caring and obviously committed to providing the best experience she can for the residents. I'm excited about the potential and looking forward to many happy years here for my mom. Her take: She told me tonight that she had "only two more days to put up with me" ;) How funny is that!

A very pleasant atmosphere for all of the employees. Very attentive to my mother and always available when ever I have any questions or issues (which I really have not had any). My mother has been there over a year and is a Level One care.

We found Morningside with the help of "A Place for Mom". Robbin was very, very helpful and understanding about the difficulty of the process. She has been through this so many times she made us understand that our confusion was normal and that we just needed to stay on course.... which we did. That led us eventually to Morningside. My Mom moved in last week and is quickly adjusting. She can see that everything is there for her. She is going to be a very hard nut to crack... but that shell already has a few cracks in it. A Place of Mom helped us to understand the process that she will be going through. I can't say enough........ and it was free.

Things are going well. The staff is very friendly, and they keep the community nice and clean. They are responsive, and attentive, and they have some good activities to choose from. There are no complaints about the food, and I can't really think of any areas that need to be improved or done better. All in all they are doing good.

My mom has been at Horizon Bay for two years and loves it there. They'll fix whatever she wants at any meal. She sits wherever she chooses. The entire staff and residents are like family caring for one another.
