Serene Gardens

I am very pleased with the care my mother receives at Prestige Pointe. She likes the independent feeling she has, yet knows if she needs anything, there is always someone there. When I have a question or concern, it is addressed promptly, and it is clear that the resident care comes first. My mom has lived at Prestige almost a year, and I have yet to worry about her care, as I know her Prestige "guardian angels" are watching over her. I rate four stars instead of five only because the building itself is in need of updates and repairs.

I also toured PResitge Pointe. The place was clean and maintained nicely. The staff was all friendly and the person that took me around was very informative. It was a good experience, but not the best fit for my loved one.

Overall my father is doing pretty well since his move to this community. He is being cared for well, and the family is pleased. I know he is safe and in a good place. This is a community I would recommend, it is working out well for us.

My mother in law was in very good hands here at this community. Unfortunately my father in law decided to move her back home. We were very pleased with all they did for us. This is a lovely community, they do a great job with the cleanliness. The staff did a great job of caring for her and her needs. We knew she was safe and receiving great care at this community.

Everything is working out very well for my husband here at this community. They are very kind and friendly. The community looks good. There is nice food and good activities. The staff is accommodating and very helpful. Overall they are caring for him and I would recommend this community.

I currently utilize the services Prestige Pines offers for my parent, and I think the community is a nice environment everyone who works there is very helpful and it is very nice setting. Cleanliness is great and friendly staff.

Prestige Pointe is very clean. They are very friendly, and very welcoming. I have not experienced this, but from what my loved one has told me, some of the night staff are not very friendly to the residents.

The manner and friendliness of all the staff doesn't sag no matter now busy they are. Patience and gentleness come to mind when describing staff feeding or attending to my loved one's needs. Amenities are excellent; dining includes cloth napkins and personal wait-service. The only drawback has been some laxity in laundering pillowcases which are rotated under the patient's legs (patient is bed-bound). Apparently there is a regulation for assisted living homes which prohibit the use of side rails on beds in those facilities. There are several reasons why our patient has needed them for his comfort and safety, and we have had to improvise other measures to attempt to keep him safe. The staff DO work very well with Gentiva Hospice services.

We toured this community when we were looking into care options for a loved one. This was a very attractive community, they had a lovely main building and common areas, and well kept grounds! Unfortunately it was a fairly expensive community, and the rooms in the price range we were looking in were very small, and would have had shared restrooms.

Its beautiful. I would have moved in myself. If you have a loved one with Alzheimers this is the place. My only problem was not being able to get a price. Not even an estimate.

All in all, everything was alright. My loved one was only there for a short time, but while they were there, everything was very clean. They definitely could have used some improvement as far as communication goes. It didn't seem like the staff was always aware of what was going on with the residents. Other than that, the staff was very friendly to both the residents and the families. We wouldn't have kept my loved one there if they weren't.

My mother enjoyed her short respite stay at Prestige Pines. I am sure we will be using the facility again for future respite stays.

We're very happy with this community so far! It's a very airy, clean, and inviting feeling facility. The staff seemed to have a genuine interest in taking care of the needs of the residents. They respond promptly and take care of anything that comes up immediately. One area that I feel like they could improve on a little is just the interpersonal skills of the caregivers. They're very prompt and helpful, but I wish they were a bit more personable, things like just checking in to say "Hi!", cheerfulness, etc.

I visited the location and was reasonably impressed with the appearance of the place and the reception I received by the director. I like the newness of the place and the fact that it is on one level.

Hospice; all inclusive rates.

I visited the location and was reasonably impressed with the appearance of the place and the reception I received by staff. This was the first place I visited, so I was just getting acquainted with the kind of experience a resident could expect. I like the newness of the place and the fact that it is on one level. I don't know enough about the cost options.

Although my family and I loved the community itself we did not like the location of it at all. Its just a little to far to have my parents there and us away from them. If this dosent apply to you I would say go for it.

My loved one was here for a brief respite stay, and while there are a few things they do very well there are also way they could improve. To start with the good, the caregivers are wonderful, they are all very friendly and professional. However, it is a very costly facility, and I don't feel like they provided much in terms of services and amenities for the price. They also did not have much in the way of activities.

Overall the place was nice and the people were very nice and genuine. They were slow to respond to the call button. Also promised to return and never came back. Switching over the medication service was a nightmare and no one at Serene understood the ins and outs of the process. The food smelled amazing but was not very nutritional. Lots of carb heavy meals and the vegetables were always overcooked. My mother was a diabetic and I was concerned with the amount of carbs she was eating at every meal. I never tasted the food myself because of my own dietary restrictions. They are understaffed which causes the workers to be stressed. Also the workers are hired off the street and facebook which means some lack the passion for this type of hard work. This creates turnover, understaffing, and overworked employees. But again everyone we interacted with was very nice and genuine. I would recommend Serene the place is very secure and I felt comfortable that my mother was safe and in good hands. They can work to improve the few concerns I expressed.

Not sure I would recommend. When my mom really started to decline I am not sure she got as much care as she needed. We picked them because it was a new building nicely appointed.
