My mother was at Morningside from June to August. It was very nice, but my mother was bedridden, and so she needed more care. They have little exercises, devotions, and Bingo. It was an excellent place, with excellent staff, and it was clean, and very nice. The dining area is beautiful, and the food is excellent. They have very nice rooms, and the rates are very reasonable. It is the best assisted living place.

We found Morningside of Athens for my mother. It seems personable. The atmosphere is great. The marketing staff is great, but the CNA leaves a lot to be desired. Also their rooms are very small compared to a home. They have devotion, bingo, and chair yoga.

I was able to visit Morningside of Athens, and when I went there, they were having some construction and remodeling at that time. I had no negative feelings about the place. The place seemed clean, and I didn't smell anything around it. The rooms were clean and well appointed.

My mom-in-law is at Morningside of Athens. We chose this place because of the people and the way the place is set up. It is easy and convenient for her to walk around, and that way she could still keep some independence, and she could maneuver around. They have a large patio in the center with flowers. The staff are very patient, and plus they understood exactly how things are done.

Just attended the Thanksgiving dinner for residents and their families. A lot of hard work went into this event by the staff and it was very enjoyable, thanks.

My mother was a resident at Morningside for over a year. I enjoyed visiting her there because I knew she was being well attended to. I came to know most of the staff personally and they were always very polite, friendly and helpful, and were attentive to her needs. Whenever my Mom needed something outside the facility, Teresa, the executive director, was always very quick to make telephone calls and make arrangements for whatever the situation called for. I am very grateful for her assistance. She also kept me advised as to my mother's changing condition. I would highly recommend Morningside as a place for the elderly to receive assisted living.

When entering Morningside you are greeted with friendly staff , always making you feel welcome . The staff show a genuine concern for the well being an care of the residence . They have always taken the time to talk with the family members , keeping us up to date with any health issues. I would highly recommend this facility . My father said the food is great and loves the coffee .

I cannot begin to state how nice and professional the staff is. It is more like an extension of home rather than an assisted living facility. Totally non-hospital atmosphere. Very elegant and clean. Teresa has been such a help in getting everything planned. She is a very pleasant and caring individual.

I found the facility to be clean and cozy. Not like a hospital, but it still had a professional air to it. The environment was open and friendly. The tenants as well as those running the facility were helpful and considerate. My grandmother enjoyed her time there. She made quite a few friends and played cards with some of her lady friends on a regular basis. Besides her weekly card games the facility also organized some group activities. There was the stereotypical bingo night, but there were other activities that my grandmother really enjoyed.

I think this senior citizen's home was very nice. Walking in, I noticed that the whole facility is very well kept. It smells clean, not "hospital-like" as some other senior citizens homes I've been to. The faculty there was very nice. They seem to really bond with the seniors there and they are very available whenever any senior citizen needs help. We played bingo with the residents and they were all very enthusiastic. While talking with the citizens, I found out that they oftentimes have activities that are organized by college students. There seems to always be something to do. The residents all seemed to like each other too. They were all friends with each other and it seems that they truly enjoy their time there. The facility as a whole seemed really great. I would definitely trust sending my own families there and would recommend others to do the same.

Morningside is a wonderful senior living facility and has much to offer to the residents who live there. The activities offered to seniors are very enjoyable and they take field trips to places in the area that are beneficial to the social health of the residents who live there. The holiday activities they have are welcoming to everyone regardless of religion or creed and the staff is always courteous and kind enough to talk with family and friends about what is going on with the resident and always ask us about our satisfaction with the services they provide. They give the residents as much freedom as possible to do what they are still physically able to do on their own and are always there to aid them when they are unable to do something.
