Serene Gardens

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.

Just ok. Everyone has their own specific needs so it's hard to be everything to everyone. As always some people are very good and should be paid a lot more. Others are in the wrong line of work.

Unfortunately, we did not have a great experience. After a month, even with daily visits, I noticed my dad's hygiene and room cleanliness were being neglected. His stay there was to include medication management, showers, bed changes, housekeeping, all 3 meals, and help with dressing and such. I would never recommend this place to anyone with loved ones.

They been undergoing new management for the past two months. I'm giving them a try. We picked this community because of the recommendation from my mothers place.

I have recommended people consider The Avalon of Auburn Hills. The facility is nice, clean, and modern. The food was fair, it may be better for those that can go to the main dining room. My mom ate on her floor, in Memory Care dining, that had food brought up. The staff is mostly good. We visited often so, communication with the family was frequent. I would recommend soft flooring in the bathroom for patients who have a tendency to fall.

Our family had an in person tour and we just did not really care for it, it was very dark and not very welcoming
