Savannah Court of Lakeland

My father in law stayed a short 4 months. He went in with dementia. Was still pretty healthy other than the occasional story telling due to the dementia. In the short time he was there we experienced the staff not making sure he ate (he literally withered away) they never cleaned his room unless they were told to. The residents walked into my father in laws room at night sometimes even climbing in bed. The only activity I ever saw was a few patients were allowed to walk around the building with a staff member. The place constantly reeked of urine and for a week had a huge blood stain outside his door from a woman falling and hitting her head. The staff to patient ratio is def. not adequate to take care of their needs. At dinner time I witnessed plates being placed in front of patients who could not eat due to their lack of motor skills and they were not once checked on and then the plate is removed 30 mins later. I witnessed a staff member screaming at a patient who wouldn't sit down to eat and forced her into her chair. There is nothing for patients to do but walk up and down the halls. Some will sit in the living room just waiting to excape when the door opens. It's a sad facility and I wish I had never left my Father in law there. Please reconsider leaving your loved one here.

I am a VA Accredited Claims Agent and assist veterans and surviving spouses with applying for a benefit that helps pay for assisted living. I have a number of clients who reside at Savannah Court of Lakeland. So far, I have received nothing but positive comments that confirm my own favorable impression I have of the community from having visited. Executive Direction Angie and Community Liaison Melanie are great to work with and very dedicated to making sure families and residents have a pleasant experience.

Don't bath their patients very often, Don't have enough workers for the number of patients they have .

Most of the people at Savannah Court of Lakeland were quite a bit older, pretty advanced, and just sitting around in wheelchairs. There wasn't a lot of activity, and it didn't appear that there would be much socialization, and that was one of the things my wife needed. The facilities were fine, and the staff was exceptionally good. They didn't have a bus to do trips because it was mostly memory care, and most people won’t be able to do anything. The best thing they had was a golf cart to take somebody down to the drugstore. The rooms were unfurnished and fairly nondescript but nice. It was in a nice area, and since it was close to a golf course, it had a scenic view. For location, it was probably the best for enjoyable scenery. The room itself was nothing different nor out of the ordinary.

Savannah Court of Lakeland is a smaller facility, which we feel my father would do better in, and it’s very close to our home. We went in there at various times of the day and evening before we made the decision. It’s always clean, everybody always seems to be happy, and we like the feel of it. The staff seems to be caring and happy, and my father loves them. I just felt Savannah Court was the best placement for my dad.

We visited Savannah Court. The visit was great. The place was good. The cost was out of our budget though. They just had single rooms. They were fair size, but still too crowded for a couple. The dining room was very nice. They have another really nice dining room for the family there. Their facilities appeared to be very good. I was impressed with the courtyard.

I visited Savannah Court of Lakeland, and the place is very nice, but expensive. The staff seemed OK, and the rooms are very nice. Their dining room is fine. Overall, it’s a nice facility.

My parent lives here and is very happy. Administration and floor staff genuinely care and are willing to partner with us as a family to care for my loved one. They create and stick with an individual care plan. Savannah Court is the real deal and they do not use manipulative marketing strategies. The atmosphere is homey with about 32 residents. It is the perfect set-up for people with mild Dementia. My parent was at a facility about a mile down the road, and while the décor was beautiful, the individual care was pathetic. They had no tolerance for Dementia. My parent now gets the attention needed and is thriving.
