The Parkside Group

We went to East Side Gardens, and [Removed] she was great. The home was nice and everyone was very friendly, but they could not offer the care that my mother needed.

Peachtree Creek is a great facility if you're looking for a place that really cares about your love one. Wayman Parks and his staff are top notch. I moved my mom to Georgia in 2016 after years of living by herself, falling and injuring herself, numerous Life Alert calls and the onset of dementia. She lived with a relative for a while but it got to the point she needed professional assistance. She was moved to an assisted living facility that really should not have accepted her. My mom was wheelchair bound and couldn't mobilize herself. It was obvious after being there for a few months that the facility was just filling rooms for the money. She was the only resident that was immobile. My mother spent most of her days alone in her room often missing breakfast and many times eating dinner alone in her room. Her dementia seemed to progress rapidly and she was very depressed. She fell often and stayed on the floor sometimes for hours before anyone checked on her. When relatives went to visit they often found her alone in the cafeteria while the staff was cleaning saying they did not have time to move her yet. The facility was often understaffed. But of course when she was admitted we were told someone checks on the residents every 30 minutes, they had diabetic meals, etc. all of which we quickly found not to be true. It was a nightmare. After two bouts with pneumonia within a month she was sent to rehab. It was there where I was told she needed to be placed at a facility that could offer a better level of care. Peachtree Creek was recommended. We met Kandie Romano, Director of Sales and Marketing and my mother's life began to change. My mother is actively involved in daily activities to stimulate her mind thanks to Nicholas Bridges, Program Director. Although she has early dementia it has definitely regressed from when she lived at the previous living facility. She is involved in both physical and mental activities that has helped her emensely! Jessie and Jannella of the Wellness Staff take great care of her. I never worry about her medical condition. She feels special instead of being part of a cattle call. The whole staff is extremely professional and open to discuss any issue you might have. The facility is very clean with constant renovations. My mother is happy, well fed, thanks to Chef Tarey. I no longer worry about if my mother would be around the next week. I know being at Peachtree Creek has extended her quality of life. You can't go wrong allowing Peachtree Creek to care for your loved one. Thank you Wayman and Staff.

From what I can tell, the staff is taking good care of my loved one. She is in the Alzheimer unit, and it is a little dark and the rooms are cold. The rest of the facility is very nice. It has been a good experience.

My mother was only at this community for a short period of time but while she was there the staff where great. She was not the easiest to care for and had a few issues and the staff did the best they could to take care of her. I really liked how well the owner and administration team kept in touch with me. They always called me if there was a problem or any updates on her medication.

So far I am happy with the care. All the staff are nice and friendly, doing what they are supposed to. The food is not the best but it has been getting a little better. We have been giving them feedback. It is a clean place and all seems pretty good and we are overall pleased.

Morningside Of Gaineville is a good facility. They have him on a good diet, good food. He is getting good supervision. It is a good facility. He is happy down there.

I thought the facility was very, very nice. The only thing is that it seems a little older and it shows. However, The age of the building is not important to us, the care is. My loved one hasn't moved in yet. She will be moving in soon.

Lisa the activities Director gave us a tour.She was very professional and seemed to really love her job and enjoy the residents. Lots of volunteers from Lanier tech, residents were busy, out and interacting with others. Property is very nice, clean and maintained well. The Former Director had been here for many years and is going to open a new Facility for Company in Canton this Fall.

We toured this facility while looking into care options for a loved one. The staff here seemed friendly and professional, and the residents looked well taken care of. The facility itself was nice as well, if not quite as well laid out as some others facilities we saw. We toured quite a few places and this was one of the nicest, they are worth a look if you're looking into senior care in the area!

Moved my mom from an Emeritus location in Buford, Ga that was terrible to Cameron Hall. You won't know it was the same woman who was wanting to die to the happy, smiley lady you see today. They residents at Cameron Hall are treated with love and dignity. I can't say enough goof things about the care givers and staff at Cameron Hall. They are fantastic.

There is enough parking. The food is very good. The staff is very good. How clean the community is and how friendly the staff is are the best features of this community.

My loved one stayed here for a few months, and overall I think it was a nice place. The facility itself was always clean and well kept, and they kept all the residents looking nice as well. They also did a good job with the food. Unfortunately they weren't able to keep as close an eye on my loved one as she needed, and she suffered a few falls, but I think they did the best they could with the amount of people they had.

The general areas are kept pretty clean, and would get about a 4, but the rooms could use a little more attention. I have found that there is a little slack in what they say they are supposed to do and what they actually do. The caregivers that are assigned to the patients, seem to change often, and if we have a problem we don't know who is assigned to our loved one at any given time, they have a lot of turnover. The food would get a 5, it's really good, they have had dinners for the families, and it's relatively good, and they give them enough and it's balanced. They specialize in dementia care, and we didn't know that kind of thing existed. They need to be a little more hands on and the ratio of staff to patients are one staff to fifteen residents, and I think they need more than that.

Peregrine's Landing is an older facility and has done everything possible to meet my mother-in-law's needs. She is in the final stage of life and requires 24-7 oversight. They have done everything to make her last days comfortable. Unfortunately, other residents are able to enter her room and take items that belong to her. We has brought this to management's attention several times and they try to control tis problem. However, items continue to be taken. They do make sure to check on the patients and do emphasize personal care. They are open to all suggestions and have good communication with the family. I would recommend this facility for any memory care needs.

This isn't a comparison to others in the area, since I haven't had experience with communities there, but just a description of the experience we've had so far. I feel like they have done a good job so far, overall. The staff have all been very friendly, and I appreciate that they've been willing to work with me on ways to resolve any issues my loved one has been having In addition to the regular sorts of things one would look for in memory care I was interested in two specific requirements: I wanted somewhere where Mom wouldn't feel claustrophobic in, and I wanted the community to have a good social atmosphere. Peregrine's Landing met both of these needs. They have an open set-up where the community is secure, but the residents are free to roam within the facility. They've also got a large secure outdoor area (which hasn't been accessible to them due to the weather, thus far.) There are a good number of residents still at a social cognitive level, so my loved ones social needs are being met as well.

The common areas here are always very clean, although I feel like they could spend a little more time on the individual rooms. They also do a good job overall with the care, although we've had some issues with specific services. My loved one receives his medicine through the VA, and there have been some mixups which have been difficult to clear up due to a language barrier with the staff. There have been difficulties communicating with the staff in general, the director isn't great about returning emails. I will say that Joe Cline has been a pleasure to work with and always gets back quickly, however.

That was very small, but it was nice. I believe it had a fixed price strucutre but it was more expensive. One of the good things we discovered was that there are two types of licenses for these facilities in the state of Georgia and asissted living/memory care is the highest license. I forget the exact term they use but this did not have the right kind of license when we looked.

Advantages separate levels of care,perform activities for levels of care cost is low lots of walking area drs come to examine residents kitchen help resident gather together Provide outside service to take mom to water aerobics Disadvantage Can hire sitter to take mom to water aerobics, outdoor gardening, but not very defind, Not as pretty, no memory care pets around the area no plants Questions Do they go on outings eg lunch, xmas lights

I really like this place. Its relatively new, bright, spacious common areas, friendly w/o being juvenile. Price is ok, too. All inclusive except phone and cable. Location is ok altho its right next door to the hospice where Dad died. Don't think mom will remember that. Do have memory care and it was nice, spacious.

Great community for senior living. Helpful and friendly staff. Very clean environment. No TV provided in rooms but you could bring your own.
