Communities in Swainsboro, GA

"We liked everything about Greenwood Place Retirement Community. The people were very nice, they talked to us and explained things to us. They spent a lot of time with us and they made us feel very comfortable. The place was very clean. Everything was up to date and they made it very safe for the residents to get around with the grab bars on the hallways. They had a courtyard and a garden. They also had a lot of activities like prayer services."

"This home was sold in 2012. The new owners are wonderful. 2 of them are Registered Nurses. The staff is the best. Highly trained. The home is licensed for 24 and has sufficient staff to cover the amount residing there as required by the state of Georgia. This is an awesome place for mom or dad to stay. They provide assistance with meds, bath, laundry, meals and much more. They gave me information on how to apply for financial assistance. It really helped. They have a few residents who still drive. We used my parents own furniture and belongs which made everything go so much smoother. "

"The times I have been to Summer Willow were very nice visits. The staff at Summer willow seemed to be nice and friendly. All of the residents interacted well with the staff. The staff were very nice to the residents as well. I have found at other places that the staff weren't nice to the patients. "

"We toured The Cauley House. The rooms were big. The room that my mother-in-law would share with a partner was a good size, but it's an older facility. The staff who toured us were very, very helpful. They have some activities for them. They would have somebody come in and play games with them. They have a front porch they could get out and sit on. There's not a whole lot. The cleanliness was good. In terms of location, there are a couple of little fast-food places."

"We are residents of Southern Manor at Candler Assisted Living. The upkeep is very good. We have a two-room apartment. They pretty much take care of everything. They fed us three meals a day. They do our laundry. They'll come in and clean your house if you want to. There's a registered nurse on duty and a couple of CRNs. They handle all our medications. So far it's been great. The staff is great. They're all quite friendly. They know everybody by name and they provide whatever we need. The food's always good. We have 2 or 3 different cooks. So things change occasionally. We don't have the same boring meals all the time. We have an activities director. I have dialysis three days a week, so I can't participate in a lot of things, but something is going on all the time. It costs, but it's worth it."

"My parents used to live at Bethany Assisted Living. It was clean and a newer facility. It was very spacious. The people there were really nice and kind. The staff was very caring. They went out there to check on people because they loved and cared for them so much. It was a little expensive, but the level of care they offered was excellent. I had seen a lot of facilities and I would honestly say Bethany was one of the best facilities. "
