Assisted Living Communities in Foley, AL

"My uncle is moving into the Gardens Of Daphne. We liked it. It's small, convenient, and the people are extremely nice. They have activities, they have meals, just lots of stuff like that. They're wonderful, they're very caring, very nice, and very kind. They have a two-room suite, living room, bedroom, bathroom, very nice-sized,and very easy for him to be able to maneuver around."

"We were very impressed with Baldwin House Assisted Living when we visited. We spoke to some of the residents and they were all very happy. They welcomed us with open arms. "

"I liked what I saw at Westminster Village-Spanish Fort. I liked the location, the facilities, the homes, and the few people I interacted with. I was impressed with the person who showed us around. That individual was very knowledgeable and personable."

"While in the area, we happened upon Emerald Gardens Assisted Living facility while searching for a place for my friend's mother to live in the region. The grounds outside were nicely tended. The interior design seemed easy to navigate and each room had views, with plenty of light and fresh air. From sight seeing to nature walks and cultural events, Florida has it all. The staff takes residents on many outings into Florida's vibrant communities to enjoy all that it has to offer such as fine dining, art, culture, music and theater. The residents are offered yoga and aerobics classes, sometimes held outdoors. They are encouraged to enjoy physical activity as much as possible. Private rooms featured nicely decorated surroundings, all with nice air, light and views. The menus included food options for all kinds of diets. Healthy snacks are offered all day and into the evening, and whenever requested. The dining areas offered great food that looked and smelled delicious. The staff appeared to accommodate all levels of ambulation. All of the seniors looked very well cared for and seemed quite content living within this environment designed for seniors. "

"My name is Matt and The Veranda Retirement Independent and Assisted Living community was the place my family and I choose for placement for my grandmother. She was starting to get a little older and was unable to get around her house as well as she once was. She was still wanting to be independent, but not have to worry about doing the lawn service on her own and needed light help around the house. A nursing home was the last place my family or I wanted to put her, but upon a friends advice we looked into the Veranda. The community itself is beautiful and offers plenty of social activities, as well as, scheduled transportation to doctors visits and dry cleaning pick up. My grandmother was still able to keep independence with just a helping hand occasionally when one of the family members was not around. The staff is always courteous and willing to help with anything possible. I would recommend this facility to anyone looking for just help occasionally or more advanced care. The staff is friendly and willing to go over and beyond the duties of their job. "

"My dad already moved to Homestead, and I think he likes it there. Everything is pretty nice, and it doesn't smell like pee there. The room is pretty nice also. He does not have any complaint with the food. They seem to have something going on at 11:00 and at 3:00. I will recommend it because it is friendly, and it has good service. The staff is very good. They have about seven buildings there, and this one is among the larger ones in Pensacola. I do recommend it to others. The staff is great, and the people kind of mingle all day. Everything is pretty good in there. "

"I toured Noble Senior Living at Pensacola. The place looked clean, but it smelled really bad. The rooms smelled musty and the bathrooms smelled like pee. It was like a tiny motel room at a rundown motel, and there was no way I could put my mother there. The staff who gave the tour was very friendly and knowledgeable about how everything was going, and that side was pretty good. The people there seemed okay, they weren't overly joyous, but they weren't complaining or anything. It was pretty quiet. They move around and do everything, I didn't see any of the activities going on. It seems like the administration has not taken care of the place. It needs a roof, you can see shingles are missing and it's starting to get leaks on the ceiling inside. So you can see there are roof leaks, they need to put a new roof in place. She went over the pamphlet, but you didn't see or hear anything about the transportation, the other places, or the activities. She explained them, but I didn't get to see them. They've got a garden, a patio, and a smoking area."

"My mother moved into Shelton Manor. I like it, there are good chrisitian folks are in charge of the place, and they very purposely take time with the residents to get to know them so they're not just a number or a face. They have good space inside the building for walking about, my mom loves it, and it also has a spacious backyard that's nicely landscaped with a country sidewalk in it for walking about and enjoying the outdoors. They offer three meals a day plus two snacks. The staff is very cheering, and their aim is to behave themselves in such a way that they make the residents feel that this is your home and they're there to serve you and your needs. They have movies, books, a library, audio books, the activities director is also a singer and has singalongs sometimes, arts and crafts, needlework, pottery stuff, painting, facebook pictures of residents that they paint, and they're also making cheerful cards to send out to other communities so they can be a source of cheer to other people. The price is a bit lower than other facilities, but they have an extra charge for laundry and giving medications."

"My husband's grandmother lived here until she passed away. We enjoyed bringing the kids to visit her. Building is nice. "

"Wesley Haven Villa is a assisted living center for seniors. It is located in downtown Pensacola. The center offers shuttle services to WalMart and to doctor appointments. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner (which are very good) keeping in mind the health requirements of each senior resident. The staff is friendly and helpful. They also have Methodist church services. They have a piano in the library area to play for the residents. "

"Grandview was really pretty, and it was decorated for the holidays. The rooms of the residents were nice, and they had their own furniture. This is one of the places I’m going to take my brother. "

"It is a fantastic place. It’s top of the line and a beautiful place. She had a one-on-one nurse with her all the time. They did respite care for us. That is one of the nicest places I’ve ever been in, and my mom had the best care ever. My mom has Alzheimer's and is completely incontinent, but that place smells so good. The whole facility is a locked facility; you have to have a code to get into the general area, and someone has to buzz you into the memory care. They have activities for the residents like baking, Bible class, and a little arts and crafts. They have a beautiful dining room in the regular area and a grand piano in the lobby where someone plays every so often. "

"We visited Murray House. The staff and rooms were nice. It was small and did not have enough space for what we needed. The food was adequate. They offered transportation to and from places but that was about it."

"Life care center in Pensacola is a beautiful facility. It sits off of the road and is free from traffic noise. The facility seemed very clean and the staff were friendly. A couple of bonus features is the ice cream parlor, the barber shop and the outdoor putting green. The rooms seemed nice however most of them are 2 patient rooms. The rehab facilities were adequate but not as large or as nice as other facilities in the area. My sister and I viewed the facility to see if life care center would be a good fit for our dad. We were able to walk in with out an appointment and one of the ladies in admissions gave us a tour. The tour was only of the main floor, and I am not sure what is upstairs - possibly more patient rooms. Another nice feature is the family dining room. This room is set up like a formal dining room and is available for family functions or gatherings (dinner, birthdays etc.) "
