Assisted Living Communities in Prattville, AL

"The Harbor Hickory Hill was nice and I liked it. It was my number one pick. Everything was great. The rooms were large and clean. The dining setup was good. They give haircuts and go on outings."

"My mom has been a resident here over 3 years. Overjoyed with her care, well being and the love shown to her on a steady basis. Glenda(voice of Charlton Place!), nurses, CNAs, Dietary, Housekeeping all stellar. No place in Montgomery or surrounding area comes close to standards set here. Never, EVER have I seen any staff member on a cell phone, standing against the wall or deliberately not hearing a call bell. That is house wide. Always clean, fresh and quietly busy. Rooms are appropriately well sized, large bathrooms, wonderful parlor area for visits and dining rooms always clean! No sticky chair backs, table rims or seat bottoms. My mom is actively dying and since she can’t be with our family, I can rest better knowing her “other family” is loving her. Words cannot express my gratitude for Charlton Place and those who so lovingly serve those residents who are living out their last days. Staff has always been extremely respectful and attentive to needs of those who need extra assistance. While my mom doesn’t have much time left on this earth, she is being cared for in such a way I have NEVER seen in any facility in Montgomery and/or surrounding area. Charlton Place puts NEW MEANING to Rehab/Nursing Home/Elder Care Facility. Actually, just hearing the words Nursing Home/Rehab/Elder Care Facility would bring a sense of dread and mental darkness to my mind. CP defines what Elder Care truly means. I have tried to think of one negative aspect of CP but cannot. Charlton Place has reset the gold standard. Thank you so much for all you do and have done!"

"I had no idea that it was even there. It's hidden in a wooded area off Main St and I was greatly impressed with the staff and layout of the facility. It's more like a family home really than a facility. My cousin that has Parkinsons is there and really loves it. The staff was very attentive and kind. I can't speak to the food cause I didn't eat a meal but Jennifer did offer us a dessert that was delightful. My mother had a major stroke and was at a nursing home in Montgomery and I would have loved for her to be in a small home like this if she could have gotten the medical care she needed. I gave the review 4 stars instead of 5 due to it being just a little "dated" in the decor which is purely cosmetic. First impression was great mainly because the staff was so kind and caring. His room was an adequate size with a large bathroom with walk in shower and plenty of rails for stability. Everything from meals to laundry was provided. "

"The Gardens of Waterford is an older facility, but they have renovated it. The inside lobby area, the gathering area, and the dining area looked good. It's one level. The staff was good, and accommodating, called me back, and asked what my interest was, telling me if I wanted to, I could bring other family members over to look at it. From an accommodation point of view and from the attitude of the staff itself, they were very good. They're in the process of changing management, so they're doing some renovations. In one of the rooms I looked at, they were updating and painting it. They are working on upgrading their rooms and the rooms were larger than the other place for the price. A $4500 room at the other place is a little smaller than the $3800 room at the Waterford."

"We liked what we saw at John Knox Manor. They have been redoing some of the rooms, and they were really nice. People were very friendly. They have a place where they play games, cards, and different things. They also have a big flower garden out back where you can go out and plant your own plants if you want to. The lady who showed us the room said that they go on trips. We talked to some of the residents, and they were really pleased with it."

"Everybody in CaraVita Village were very friendly and helpful, from the lady that showed us the different facilities that they have available, to the cooking and cleaning staff. We chose this community because of the size of the rooms, the fact that there's somebody on the premises 24 hours a day, and the cost. My father-in-law's apartment is a 2-bedroom, 2 bath, with a mini-kitchen and sitting area. They furnish three meals a day, and they have a bus that takes the residents to their doctor, or to Walmart or the bank once a week. They have several different activities like church, choir, Bingo, art, or water aerobics."

"Helping Hands Assisted Living is the best family oriented facility in Alabama. This is the best facility I have seen in my life. I haven't had one issue since I have placed my parents here. They have meet all my parents wishes and the care is beyond exceptional. There is always one on one care and there is no over crowding with plenty of activities for the resident's to do. I would recommend this facility a thousand times. "

"I visited Second Home Assisted Living. The owner was very nice. She gave me a tour, and I thought it was not a good fit for my aunt. It's more like a home, not an assisted living facility, with three bedrooms, but no nurses on staff. The staff was very informative."

"I toured The Belmont. They're a very nice community. The rooms are very nice. If it's long-term, you furnish the room. They have a private room and private baths. They're gated so that they can't leave the facility. They have a beautiful lake right there where they can take their patients and they can eat around the lake and stuff like this. It's a nice unit. The staff was very courteous. I got to meet all of their staff, their nurses and everything, ask them questions, and just kind of interact with them. They were nice. They were very informative."

"Wesley Gardens Retirement Community was excellent. The community was very clean. It's a very nice experience. The room was very, very clean, and nice. The dining area was extremely superior. I didn't try their food, but I believe it's good because the restaurant was setup very nice, and it's clean and beautiful. The person who took us around was very professional, very kind, and patient. The facility was very up-to-date."

"My sister-in-law's mother was at John Knox at Arrowhead. They had their own doctor and staff. It's small, so you get a lot of attention. It was about the same as most of them, but it was very clean. She had probably one of the nicer rooms. It was a big room. The residents were very well taken care of. They were able to get out and get around. They all visited with each other. It was very nice and very well kept up. The staff I met was very nice, too. The dining area was very well lit and very quaint. They had three meals, and they had snacks in the middle of the day, too. My sister-in-law said they had all kinds of activities for them to do. The value for money would be a five because it would be twice as much trying to keep her at home."

"Mom was at a different place and I moved her to the Gardens, she is so happy there. The staff are so sweet, helpful and they go above and beyond to make the residents feel at home. "

"My friend is currently in this facility and although she said some of the nurse practitioners and CNAs are ok most are lazy and some are downright rude. They run out of her meds, the food Is often cold when served and the very large wound on her leg is supposed to be cleaned and dressed daily but sometimes it goes 3 or 4 days without being taken care of. She has complained of chest pain and they do nothing to find out what has caused it. She has congestive heart failure and chest pain could mean something serious is going on. I would never send anyone to this facility, they need a good shake down from the director all the way down the line of employees. I'm old school, I believe if you take a job you should perform all you duties to the very best of your ability and not just go through the motions just enough to keep the job and collect a pay check."
