Assisted Living Communities in Gadsden, AL

"My brother was in Paden Ridge at one point. The rooms were small but the bathrooms were really large; that didn't really make sense to me. It was really clean. They had activities on different days, they had people to come in, there were services on Sundays and Wednesday evenings. I didn't care for the administrator, but the owners were very nice. The building was very accommodating, it had a back patio where the patients could go and smoke or just sit out and enjoy the air. Overall it was a very nice facility."

"My mother stayed there and just enjoyed herself and made new friends. The staff was so helpful and The staff was always helpful & to mom . The owners are a married couple and they started Oak Landing 24 yrs ago. They are the Administrators and are always there. The food is amazing. The facility is very clean and has no oder which was my first attraction. Great place."

"My mom moved into Legacy Village of Jacksonville. The place is very nice, and the staff is exceptional. My mom seems to like the food. The facility is very clean and well kept, and her room is fine."

"The Autumn Woods Assisted Living is a small place with 16 residents. It's very homey and very good. The staff is great. My father has a studio apartment. They really haven't had any activities because of the pandemic. They have books that they can read."

"We will be moving mom to Mountain Cove Assisted Living. It was very nice. The staff was very friendly. The facility was very clean and very well maintained. They had several room sizes available. Not all of them were available at the time, but they ranged from the standard size to a little bit bigger. They also have suites available. They had individual bathrooms within the room, so it was very nice and very sufficient. I wasn't sure about the exercise room, but they have sunrooms and different activities that they do with the people that live there. They provide three meals and medications. They have an in-house pharmacy and a doctor. It's a beautiful place. The dining area was not necessarily a cafeteria because it doesn't have that nursing home feel, but it was nice. It came highly recommended."

"My dad was a resident. The staff there was great. They were very involved, helping him a lot by bringing him meals, and helping him get dressed. The layout is gorgeous inside. When you walk in, there are fireplaces, and they always decorate, making it look like a place you'd want to go on vacation. It looks like a chalet. We had several meals with him, and they offered a lot of fresh options, including different dietary choices like kosher meals. The food wasn't fantastic, but it wasn't bad either. They have a lot of activities, but my dad wasn't very involved or interested in them. They had music, and I looked at their calendar, it just seemed like there were so many great things going on."

"My dad is currently at Oak Circle Assisted Living. It is homey, there is only 16 rooms and it is a family-owned business. It is nice and small. The staff are nice and very accommodating. He likes to have a certain kind of breakfast and they're fixing it for him. He likes fried eggs and they're giving him fried eggs. The room is a little bit smaller than where he was at before but I think it is probably tough for him to get around now, so that is even better for him. It is a small place. The dining room is nice and the kitchen looks large homey. There is a place to go out and watch television, like a gathering area, where they do puzzles. Everything else is just like a straight line with 8 rooms on one side and 8 on the other."

"The experience of my mother staying at the Magnolia House was truly a gift from God. She was not only well cared for, but surrounded by loving friends, new and old, who truly formed a caring community. They were excellent communicating with me, working with me and my mother to improve her care when needed, and comforting her in the midst of progression of Alzheimer's. Our small town is blessed to have such a fantastic facility! "

"My grandmother has moved here. The biggest reason we chose it was that this one allows pets. It's clean, and the staff is nice. Everything here has been perfect so far. They have different activities every day. They watch movies, they play bingo, they play giant bowling, they do adult little color sheets, and they have bible study and exercise class. They have pretty much two activities each day, Monday through Friday. So far, everyone that we have dealt with has been nice and helpful. I haven't eaten the food, but she likes it, and they have a lot of different choices."

"You can't smoke at Village at Cook Springs, and I didn't like that, but I liked that I can have my pet there, and it's all inclusive. I liked that the meals are included, and the fact that one of the administrators gave me her cell phone number so that I can call if I have any problems. The facility was beautiful. There's a little pond out there and it's got a fountain in it. It's gorgeous. WiFi, cable, and landline are provided, but I use my cell phone. There's routine little tours out. Like they were headed to Walmart for an outing when we left there. They had nice people and a nice administration. The meals looked really good, too. The staff was wonderful. The staff actually eats in their cafeteria, which tells you the food is a really good thing. I didn't have a taste of it or anything, but I have had somebody there before, and the food was excellent. They had excellent personnel."

"Absolutely beautiful establishment! Everything is very clean and up-to-date. High end features and a feeling of roominess. Residents appear to be well cared for and staff is very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend"

"Dugger Mountain was a very nice, smaller facility. They were very caring and helpful. The dining area was just a small kitchen area with about three or four tables and chairs, and it wasn't really fancy. They were very gracious. The staff was very good and quite nice. It was a very quiet place and sort of tucked away in a small community. They only have ten or 12 rooms in the memory care section."

"I'm going to put my mother into Sunset Inn. We chose it because she lived in Talladega her whole life and a lot of people she knows live there already. They're reasonably priced and they offered things that are good for her. You could have a nice sized room and you could bring your personal things. There's no shower in the bathrooms, which I consider a positive because mom is a fall risk. They have nurses to take your loved one down to the showers and monitor them. It's all-inclusive and it has a hometown feel to it. You get up and go eat three times a day in the dining room and you can come in your pajamas before 12:00. After 12:00, they want you dressed. They set goals and keep them active. They're also small-pet friendly. Mom will have her own unit and she can still leave and come back, but she has that security of having full-time care and someone to check up on her. The coordinator has been very friendly, very helpful, following up, and working to help me financially to get my mom in. It's a clean facility and they do laundry. They have bingo, dominos, makeup classes, transportation, salon, and church services."
