The Best Continuing Care Retirement Communities Communities in Dekalb County, GA

"Park Springs is a housing community; they have houses for seniors and apartments. Right in the middle of it, they have a nursing home/rehabilitation facility. It’s a great, beautiful, and clean place. It looks like some type of a hotel. My mom was there once only as she was there for rehab. I really loved it, and she loved it too. The bathrooms and rooms were really nice. They had several different dining rooms, and it was really nice as well. "

"We moved into Lenbrook. My least favorite thing is having to go up and down the elevator rather than just walk out the door like I did at my house. Other than that, everything else is fine. I have no complaints. They have fabulous workout centers, indoor swimming, croquet, a patio, lounging areas, and outdoor eating when the weather's right. It's just a nice place. The staff members are excellent. They provide the food, and it's been good. Half of the menu is the same every time, and half of it changes every time. The variety is a little bit weak, but I wouldn't downgrade it because of that. There are plenty of things to keep you occupied. They have lectures and movies. It's a great place for animals. We got our dog, and they have Dog Day on Sunday afternoons. It's expensive."

"Canterbury Court in Atlanta is very impressive because it is like a luxury hotel and the decorations were nice. They're building a new building that won't be ready for a year so basically, that's what we're focused on. We saw independent living but they also had assisted living. They couldn't show us the new stuff, of course, it was not built yet. They have a new building that they're putting up. Right now, there's only one building. We saw their one and a half bedrooms. They were spacious and nicely laid out and it's a classy-looking outfit. But of course, we also talked about the new building, because that was our focus. The place is nice. The staff was friendly. They had all the amenities that we would want. I didn't see any activities going on, but they spoke of them. They told us about activities that they're engaged in regularly and their willingness to add others if the residents wanted them. They also offer transportation and they give residents access to a lot of community activities."

"It is hard for me to believe that I have been a resident of St. George Village for almost 10 years. I moved here alone but have found a family of friends,caring staff and a beautiful environment. Lucky me, I call SGV home! "

"I chose Presbyterian Village for many reasons, one of which it was highly recommended and I was also close to my sister-in-law. They had good food. The staff were nice to everyone, they accommodated you in any way they could, prompt and very courteous. I would recommend this facility to other people. "

"The chef here does a fabulous job of selecting, preparing and cooking the food. He is always trying to create something that the residents will like as well as being healthy for them. And even more important he tries to comply with requests not only for food but also for implements."
