"My mother-in-law is at Fort Valley Health and Rehab which is an older nursing home. The staff is excellent and very good. They have entertainment and Bingo, and the food is excellent."

"We chose the Villa Rose for my aunt. She will move in this month. We liked it for the location and size. The staff was very helpful, answered all the questions, typical sales. The facility does not have a lot of bells and whistles, but it's clean. They have a basic cable, Wifi, they have a dining hall, and all the rooms are private. It's close to our home, that's why we liked it."

"My momma is at Country Gardens Assisted Living and we like it. It is local and we know the people there. Momma does not have any type of dementia or anything like that, so what she needs is very minimal care like help with her daily things. She has progressed from having to use a bedside potty to be being able to get herself into a wheelchair and take herself to the bathroom and go from the wheelchair to the commode without assistance. Of course, she eats and sleeps well. She does not have to have assistance going to the dining room, she can roll her own wheelchair. The only reason she is in the wheelchair is because she can't put weight on her foot. But other than that, she needs help getting her clothes out of her closet because she can't reach up. But she found a way to put her own clothes on. I go there every day and get her clothes and I bring them home and wash them myself. They have a good facility there, but momma just sometimes has an accident or two just because she waits before she goes and sometimes she has an accident, and she prefers for us to take care of her laundry rather than them. Their food can go from good to excellent. Momma has not complained one bit. She is an excellent cook so if anybody were to complain it would be her. We have not found them be anything but pleasant for us. The staff is excellent. Where we live in rural Georgia, they cannot afford to hire BSRNs or anybody on that skill level, but what we have gotten is exactly what my Momma needed. And we have home health care. She was dismissed from the hospital with home health care, so they go there to check on her about once a week or so. Her physical therapist and the LPN are with the home health care. They're keeping a record of her blood pressure and everything like that so that her doctors will have a good record of that. Her room is a studio, she has a bedroom with a small siting area, a closet and a personal bathroom. They have a beauty salon and I have seen some books there, although we give momma her own books just because we know her taste. She does not use the library there. They have a big sitting area so all the residents can sit together and watch TV. It is hard with Covid, but they have some groups to come in for music and they do have some devotional groups. I know our church takes devotional books to the assisted living and I know a lot of the residents really enjoyed those. They do everything we need. They have long hallways that are easy for the residents to get out into the hall and can definitely accommodate wheelchairs and other personal devices. It is not crowded. There is ample staff to get the residents who are not as stable as they could be to the dining room and other places. They have a great pavilion out in the back where when the weather is good the residents can sit out. There are some residents who go out of the front porch and just watch. There is a lake in the front. There are plenty of things for them to enjoy. Some of the residents actually get out and walk for miles in a track. I think Covid puts a damper on all the activities. I have known people who have been there outside of Covid and they had tons of activities going on. But it is really difficult in a small facility to have activities going on during this time. I cannot fault them; they did very well for what they have going on. I don't know much about other pricing. I viewed a few sites online and I thought they were either lower than or in line with other places, but that did not have any bearing on where we chose to go. This is local for us. We know the people and we know their reputation and we are glad to get a place there."

"My mom is currently at Taylor County Health and Rehabilitation. They went above and beyond to help me in getting my mom into their facility. They got us all set up and I didn't have any problems. Everyone is kind and caring, and they make sure that my mom is comfortable. It is a wonderful place. I'm very pleased with the nursing home and the rehab center altogether. It's very clean and they're all very helpful. They call me any time changes ought to be made or something is going on. I'm very happy, very pleased, and very satisfied. Her room is wonderful. The bathroom is right there by the room. The food is good, too. She goes into the recreation room and plays bingo with the other residents there."

"My father is a resident of John-Wesley Villas of Macon. Looking around, I see that this is just what is closer to home, and it is a nice place. I like the way the community looks. It's more of a home look. I like the level of care that they give from assisted living to the independent living tenant. The staff has been excellent. We ate here yesterday and, about to eat now, and it's been great. The place is top-notch and clean. We haven't been in any of the activities, but I have seen what they do. They have music, games, dinner nights, and movie nights. Every Thursday, the staff takes everybody out to dinner. It's just very nice."

"The Oaks is overall a good quality facility for the elderly. The facility is not very large, but big enough to accommodate their needs. It is located in a great area in the country--so the residents can sit outside and have a good breath of fresh air and view the countryside. The staff was always very attentive to the residents. My great-grandmother was never neglected or mistreated by the staff. The rooms are on the smaller side but the bathrooms are plenty big for those who can't move around very easily and for the handicapped. The Oaks provides an ample amount of activities for the residents to participate in. They also have an on-going calendar of events where people come and entertain the residents. Whenever I went there to sing, many of the residents came out to listen and participated. They always seemed content and happy. My great-grandmother was there for about a year and then left to go live with her daughter because of extensive physical problems. But her stay there was enjoyable. "

"My sister-in-law is at The Oaks at Peake. I like everything. Everything's great. It's light and airy, and they've just been renovated. They've redone their dining room and redone the halls. It's open and inviting. The staff is wonderful. They've taken great care of my sister-in-law. They have a bus that takes them to the grocery store, they have people come in and sing, they have people that play the piano, they play bingo, and they have arts and crafts. The dining experience is very good. It's just overall good food."

"My dad was at Kingsford of Warner Robins for two years. It was outstanding, very well maintained, well managed, very roomy, and very comfortable. It was top value for the dollar. My dad didn't partake in any of activities, but they had Uno, card games, bingo, and horse racing games. They loved it. As far as the quality and freshness of the food, it was very high. I know the manager personally did all the shopping, and I never saw any problems. I would give the staff a very high star rating because they're very well trained and very disciplined. The management maintained strong accountability particularly when it comes to medication management and notifying the family members if there was any irregularity. They were very trustworthy and worked with the relatives very well."

"We are very satisfied with Baptist Village Plantation Suites. They have been absolutely wonderful in every way. I could not be more pleased with the place and the personnel, and we are just amazed with the food. Mom is on the list for the suite because the room she's in is not as large as we would like, but it is sufficient for now. The main thing is she is happy. They have so many activities, and she's been busy. The residents are so loving with each other. The experience has been so much more than we thought it would be. "

"My mother is at Baptist Village Plantation Villas. So far, it's great. Her room is spacious and clean. Everybody is nice. It's perfect. I have no complaints. They have Bingo, movie nights, they go places, and they have different activities. They have meals on certain days and they all get together. She hasn't eaten in the cafeteria yet, but all the rooms have their own full kitchen. The staff is excellent. A lot of neighbors have stopped by and they said they love it there. They have a library and ground maintenance is covered. It's just a beautiful neighborhood."

"My father is at Zebulon Park Health and Rehabilitation. I really like the place very much. It's on the level of assisted living. It's a beautiful place. It's very, very clean. The staff is wonderful. I have absolutely no complaints about that place at all. My father is in hospice care. They're very friendly and very caring. With regards to activities, they offered my father something like bingo, which they thought that maybe he could participate in, but he's not well enough. I saw activities when I passed their common areas where they're doing activities, and there seemed to be a lot of participants. The facility is absolutely beautiful. It's kind of expensive because he needs such a high level of care being under hospice, but it actually ended up being cheaper for us because when he was at assisted living he had to have sitters, and that was $500 a day cost for sitters, and that was really, really expensive. As far as nursing homes go, it's a little bit higher, but for us, I think it's a very good value."

"The room, it is like a 1 bedroom apartment, my mother-in-law is in is perfect for her. She needs extra care and the whole staff there are just amazing people, they care."

"The Carlyle Place facility is exceptional quality. The moment that my team and I arrived, there were staff members to greet us and give us a guided tour. It is a nursing home and assisted living center. The entire venue is immaculate and all of the staff are friendly and smiling. There are great activities for the residents to be involved in like swimming, water aerobics, arts and crafts, live music in the living room, and a full service cafe. They even have a room that can be rented out for holidays, so the residents and their families may have a private dinner together. Volunteering at Carlyle Place was easy and a lot of fun and I would recommend it to anyone who lives in the area! "
