"I found a place for my dad, and it's called Lanier Place. The staff is incredible. If I could give them 10 stars, I would give them 10 stars. They're that good. They just make you feel like your family member is safe and you don't have to worry about them in their hands. It's like a very big family dynamic. They treat everyone equally and everyone is like family. It's just amazing. My dad has been there for six weeks now. He is there for regular assisted living. He does get medication management because of possible dementia, but right now, he is in assisted living. His room is great. It's a smaller apartment, and it's the lower income kind of part of the facility, but his apartment is good. It's perfect for him. It's easy for him to access everything, so it's really good. And it's right across from the courtyard; he loves to walk. My dad loves the food. It's delicious. It's like you're at a restaurant. It's very good. For activities, they walk with them and they have an ice cream social. They'll take them wherever they need to go like to doctor's appointments and outings. I remember one time I walked in and they asked them what activities they like and what they like to do. One was like, 'I want to go fishing,' and they were like, 'We can try and work that out.' So they want to do as much with them and make them happy."

"My mother is currently a resident and she is very happy. She has formed a number of friendships in the year that she has been there. They have some newer staff that are fantastic and communication when mom needs something has been very easy. The facility is clean, and well kept and the food is very good. I highly recommend this community. No place is perfect, but they definitely care!!!"

"I toured Magnolia Senior Living at Sugar Hill. It did look very good to me. The place was nice and clean. Everybody looks taken care of. I liked their game rooms. They had a lot more than where she was at. The size of the room was nice. It was like a little studio apartment. The staff was friendly. The facility was spacious, had a lot of grounds, and a patio area with the benches and stuff where they cook out."

"I would give Towne Club Windermere a five all the way around. That was my favorite place, but it is set up more like an apartment building. It's a tower and you had to get on an elevator, and Mom wasn't comfortable with that, but the rooms were fantastic. They were like regular-size apartments. They have a beautiful pool, a garden area, a movie room, a hair salon, and tour buses that would take you to the grocery stores and stuff. Any amenity that you could think of they had there. They did social hour; you come down in the main room and have appetizers and things like that. They go from independent living all the way to memory care. The staff during the tour was very, very attentive. She showed us several different sized rooms and she gave us the pricing. She made sure that we had all the meals. She let us taste the meals, which were very, very good. She took us around. She was very patient with Mom and Dad. We actually sat down around the pool with some of the people there, and we were able to talk to the residents there, ones that were in wheelchair and ones that were a little bit more independent. My concern then at that point in time was finding a place for both my Mom and Pop and Pop to be more active. The staff introduced Pop to some of the guys there that still play golf and things like that, so he really felt comfortable there. It was Mom that was not at the time, that's why we didn't do so. We actually were there three times and we signed a contract with them twice. Mom just didn't think she could do that elevator. She didn't feel comfortable with it."

"I went to Oaks at Shiloh Point. It was very small, and it only had 35 beds. They had lots of activities. The person I was supposed to meet with was not there, so I was shown around by a very nice maintenance. It wasn't as expensive as some of the other ones, but it was old. Laundry was not included, too. They have studios and small one-bedrooms. The staff was nice, and he was knowledgeable because, at one point in time, he had owned some of these independent living and assisted living places, so I felt he was knowledgeable."

"My mother lives at Wisdom Well Living. Finally I have peace of mind knowing that she is taken care of. They spend quality time with each resident and since it is a small facility that makes it possible. It is kept neat and clean and all of the meals are delicious. It is obvious with the care they give that Beatrice and David are passionate about their care giving. I would highly recommend Wisdom Well Living if you are looking for care for your loved one. "

"I looked at the assisted living and memory care at Brookdale South Lee Buford. The community seemed very nice and very homey and the people were quite friendly. I saw that they have activities in the building, people will come in with music and so forth, and they have exercises. They can go out for dinner on evenings with their bus. Overall, I was pleased and I had nothing to ask for. And all my questions were answered. It was a pleasant place and it was pleasant dealing with all the people. The building itself was clean, neat and homey."

"My mother in Law was in this facility and they gave her good care. They were very friendly. The rooms are small but they offered activities for her to do so she was not in her room alot. "

"We chose Dahlonega Assisted Living and Memory Care for my mom because of its proximity to my house. The facility was nice and clean. It seemed like there was adequate staffing. The rooms were a nice size. The staff was very helpful and answered all my questions. The dining area was very nice and clean. There were a lot of menu options. If the residents don't want to eat what's on the menu, they can fix things. They have a big television room and a game room. They have outings."

"We toured Chelsey Park Health & Rehabilitation. When we toured it, we saw things that none of us thought about having to teach someone who may have had a stroke like our mom. I mean, they had a bedroom set up so that they could teach them how to get in and out of bed safely. They had a car or a little pickup truck without the bed of the truck so they could teach them how to get in and out of a car from a wheelchair or a walker. They had like a little store set up teaching them how to pick out vegetables, and a booth in a restaurant to teach them how to get in and out. So it was just like things I never thought of that some may need to be shown and it was just truly amazing. They had a private room where there was one patient and they had their bathroom. It was very neat. The patients' rooms were on the second and third floor and each floor had a porch like you could go out there if you were in a wheelchair or walker. You could go out there and sit and just look at the mountains. The staff was very nice. They greeted us with eye contact. The girl that we would have seen happened to be in a meeting so she couldn't give us a tour, but the little girl who worked in the front end said, "I'll be glad to take you around." So she did. She took us to all three floors, and showed us their bathing area, the laundry room, just everything. She did a very good job."
