Tiffany Gardens

We were pleased with Tiffany Gardens. It seemed to be well-staffed and well-run. We liked the location the best and we moved my father there because he wanted to be back in his hometown.

I liked Tiffany Gardens for my brother. It’s very cheerful and had a lot of windows. The administrator brought me to it, and I liked that I saw people in an activity room even though they were not all participating. They have a choice as to whether they participated in whatever is being presented, but they were there, and it was good to see that they have other contact with other people and were out of their rooms. What really impressed me was the area had a lot of windows, so you're really bringing the outside in. It was very open and cheerful. The staff people were very pleasant and helpful. I saw shared rooms that were large enough and cheerful.

I had an excellent visit at Tiffany Gardens. Valerie was very thorough, and sat and talked to me in a separate room for about an hour and answered all of my questions. She even gave me extra information and seemed to know her business really well. The facility was clean and had a beautiful garden and the patio area. One thing that I loved was she actually took me into the kitchen, so I met the cook and actually got to see an example of the meal that was going to be served. I just thought that was awesome; I was really impressed that she let me do that. It's a smaller community, so it's more intimate. The kitchen was small, and the dining area was small, so it's not big and overwhelming. They had a little social area and a lot of people were sitting down in recliner chairs watching five residents and two caretakers dancing and singing in a circle. They seemed to be really enjoying it. Sometimes, they have outside entertainments come in. They had a hair salon, too.

Tiffany Gardens had enough space for 26 residents unlike the other facilities I have seen. The place had a formal dining room, a professional kitchen, a nutritionist and a large staff. I knew they would be able to provide better food and better care. There was also a garden outside where the residents could take walks and a large activity room complete with big screen television. The shared bedroom was very spacious and it had a private bathroom as well.
