Gardens of Fayetteville was very nice and very well maintained. The people that I met and talked to were excellent, very friendly, and very helpful. The rooms were very nice. They had bingo and card games going on that kept them engaged. It wasn't a new facility.

My mom is in the memory care unit. Just facility is clean and well organized. Staff there are absolutely fabulous. They care about the residents. They are gentle with them, take care of them very well and keep the families involved and aware. Anything related to my mother is immediately reported to me. I have no doubt that the staff is that way because of the director who is always available for the families in the time of questions, needs and desires. She welcomes suggestions and we often see the suggestions implemented. They have activities that include the entire family, celebrations on holidays that include the whole family, and offer parts of the facilty for the family to have 1 on 1 time with the residents. Choosing Gardens of Fayetteville (formerly known as Dogwood Forest) as the place for my Mom was the right choice!!?

We put my aunt at Dogwood Forest. It is great, and I do not have any complaints about it. The staff is wonderful. The rooms are like efficiency apartments depending on what you have, but they are very nice. My aunt says the food is fine. I have not eaten there, but she likes it. I know they take them shopping. They do exercise in the morning. They do bible study, bingo, and scrabble, and they play cards. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the place. It is fabulous.

I liked Dogwood Forest very much, but my husband felt it didn't have enough for him. The women were lovely, and the nurses were nice. It was beautiful, and the rooms were lovely. The entrance and the downstairs where people mingle were very nice. They showed me the library. The women were playing Bridge, and they had puzzles. The thing that made us back off of it was that it wasn't too much for him to do. I suggest that they have a swimming pool, a game room, and activities for men.

The community is very nice and pleasant the residents in inspirations are all engaged. When I was there, their was a Tai Chi class and the residents apppeared to be having a good time. My friends mother really like dogwood, she has made friends and is a member of the Busy Bee club. They do things for the community like at the hospital make blanets and pillows for the cancer center.

Dogwood Forest Assisted Living is like a home setting. It's only two floors to the entire building and they have a separate memory unit. They have their own cafeteria. It's a cozy and warm place. My aunt is sharing room with someone else. She has moderate stage of dementia, so they don't leave her in the room. Her room is enough for her needs, but they try to keep them out of their room and have small activities, games, and TV viewing. They watch them constantly.
When it's time for lunch they physically bring them to lunch and when they're finished they bring them back into the recreation area. They see that they're dressed properly even if they can dress themselves. They check and make sure they evaluate their actions and they do an assessment every three months on them. They try to get them to do as much as they can on their own. They call me at home if anything is wrong.

I visited my Grandmother in this facility over the course of a few months. She seemed to be taken care of very well. There were regular meals, with diabetic options available. There was regular physical therapy, which seemed to help the residents improve their interactions and physical dexterity. The staff was well trained to handle many kinds of emergencies. The hours for visiting were very welcoming. They stayed open for long hours, which helps the family come see residents when available. However, there was not enough interaction with the residents. They seemed to be sat in front of a TV and expected to entertain themselves. If you do not visit your resident they will not feel connected to their family. The key to helping someone recover in a nursing home is to provide human interaction. This is the factor that speeds recovery the fastest. My grandmother did very well after leaving this facility.

My mother is placed in Gardens of Fayetteville. So far, it is positive. We haven't been there long enough to experience too much, but my mother seems to be pretty happy there. They have taken an interest in her care. The staff members are very attentive with all of us. They play live music for the residents, they do art work, and they watch movies. A lot of times my mother would go out and sit in the garden in the back. They have dinner parties and they just had one recently for Christmas.
My mother likes the food, and the food looks good to me. It is better than where she was. The dining area is very warm and conducive to eating. Her room is not big; it is a bedroom-living room combination. It has a bathroom, which is a decent size with a shower and sink. She has a big closet, too and for her, the room is perfect.
