Assisted Living Communities in Rome, GA

"The staff, owners, and residents are wonderful. My husband and I were residents their two years ago after a health issue. The care my husband received was amazing and enabled us to return home. We are now in the process of moving back in permanently and love that almost all of the employees are still there and remember us. It makes the transition so much easier to already know the staff and so many of the residents."

"My mom moved into The Fountains at Calhoun. It seems to be very nice, well-kept, and clean. The staff members seem to be very caring. My mom gets three meals a day. There's somebody on staff around the clock, and that's what we were concerned about. My mom is clean and well. They have nice meals because I've been up there with my mom a couple of times. The meals are served. The facilities are nice. The staff members are excellent and are good with my mom. I've seen them with other patients besides my mom, and they seem to have a personal connection with the patients there. They are hands-on with them as far as helping them to get seated from a portable chair, to a sofa, or a recliner. They will assist you and try to help you personally with the condition of your loved one's mind. They customize it to your situation. The dining area is wonderful, clean, and well-kept. It's expensive, but as long as my mom's getting proper care, it's worth it."

"All interactions with staff have been positive. The Activity Director is wonderful! She works hard to involve the residents in various activities throughout the day. Her positive attitude is infectious!"

"We visited Oaks at Acworth and we liked the size of the suites and the lower residents to caregivers ratio. They had an outdoor walking trail, game nights, and stuff like that. They had a large dining area that was not too crowded and a beauty salon/barbershop on site. The staff we met was very friendly and easy to get along with."

"The care that Riverwood Senior Living provides for my husband is excellent. His room is very good, and I'm on my way there now to bring him his TV. They do puzzles, play cards, board games, they have entertainment, and all of that. The food is very good and he likes it."

"The Spires at Berry College is a lovely environment. The people there are very nice. They were very understanding and patient, and they had lots of information. They showed us around, extensively showed us the grounds, and gave us lots of options. They had one bedroom in memory care, but they had studios for assisted living. It's a very nice place. I went over there three times and saw all of it. They have different price points for places to live out there, but the memory care is a wing inside the facility, so they're secure. There's a swimming pool, a workout center, and all the amenities you want. They have buses to take you out if you're not in memory care."

"My mother was a resident at Winthrop Court for five years. The staff is friendly and caring and there is a family atmosphere among the residents. We very much appreciated that Winthrop does not have an institutional feeling, that is has the feeling of home. My mother knew that all of the employees really cared about her. It is not just a job to them. I really can’t thank them enough!! Winthrop Court, great place to live!"

"I toured Renaissance Marquis. It probably would have been our first choice, but they didn't have any two-bedrooms available. They expected to have one within one to two months; however, the distance from us is what ultimately resulted in our choosing the other facility. Nevertheless, it was clean. The staff who gave the tour was very friendly and very helpful. I met a couple of the residents, and they're as sweet as could be."

"Love the facility and the staff is fabulous! They go above and beyond for the residents and family members. I would highly recommend Cedar Hill to anyone looking for a home away from home for their family member. They provide healthy delicious meals and activities to accommodate all residents. "

"Oakview Nursing & Rehab Center was a nice nursing home facility and it was clean. I went there three times and I never smelled urine, and I never saw anything that was unpleasant. Their dining facility looked nice, and they posted the meals in a good way. They had activities. It used to be a hospital, so the rooms were typical double semi-private hospital rooms. It's not huge, and the privacy they had was still a curtain between the two, but they could move their beds around to give them more room. They could put a recliner in there or a chair. Everyone I saw seemed very knowledgeable, understanding, and pleasant. They would give them snacks, and they were very in-tune to them. Even though this is a nursing home, they look at it as the patient's home."

"My dad will be going to Tranquility of Cartersville. It is a smaller home with only about 26 residents. It's very close to where he lives and also close to the nursing home where my mother is a resident. I have visited the place in the past because there were three different people that I knew who were residents there. The rooms were fairly large and big enough for one person. The staff that I met was extremely nice. Right now they can't go out because of the COVID-19, but under normal circumstances they have an activities director, they have bingo, movie nights, they go out to eat, and they take the residents to events locally. I saw the activities calendar and it's pretty full. I also took a look at the menu. The staff member who gave me the tour was very good. I have met four of the staff members and all of them have been extremely good. The place itself was very clean, easy for the residents to move around, and the amenities were very nice. Most of the residents are mobile on their own, though some are in wheelchairs."

"I toured Tiger Lily Estates. They were kind of neat. They were very new and very modern. They are current, and I liked it because it was new, more spacious, and more consistent. It was not what I was looking for, but it was beautiful. However, you had to leave the facility to go to a common area for events. I didn't care for that because you would be traveling in the rain or cold. If you were someone in a wheelchair or being pushed, I didn't care for that. It would not have worked for my friend because of her age. The rooms were spacious and current, so everything was consistent. It's like an apartment, and they're kind of cookie cutter. They had their own living-bedroom area and bathroom. They were very consistently the same, so you wouldn't find one a little smaller than another. They were spacious enough for a single person in the later years of life. They're clean and fresh because they're brand new. They had a calendar of events, and they had their in-house salon. There were a couple of things you could do in-house, but they had more structured activities (even things like chair exercises). They had a program, so I like that part about it. People would come and perhaps play the piano or do entertainment in a big area. They just do events in that building. They're not exclusively, but they're very fresh and very current. They have a separate kitchen area, and they bring food like a dorm. They're new, and they're recruiting. The staff were very, very nice and very informative. They followed up afterwards. They really wanted us to be happy or to be informed and have all the information we needed to make a decision. Everybody on that day couldn't be more attentive to make sure we understood and were good about what we were looking at."

"My mother moved into Manor Lake Cartersville. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The facility was very clean and neat. And in the process, they walk us through every step of the way. And, when my mother visited, she loved the place. She loved the facility. She loved the interaction with the staff and the patients there or residents. I went to visit her yesterday and they were singing, dancing, arts and crafts. They do outings off the premises. They go to parks, movies, and restaurants. She said they go to zoos and places like that. We met the activities coordinator and he has a lot of great ideas as far as keeping them active, keeping them up and moving. And, they have family night bingo. That was another thing that got us there, because of the family involvement with the activities. But it was very, very active. A lot of things to do. That was one thing my mother truly enjoyed so far being there is that there's always something to do. They do a lot of karaoke."

"We saw the dining room at the Spring House at Cartersville. The rooms are still being renovated, and because of the renovations it wasn't safe to go view the rooms. But they had pictures of the rooms, and the pictures looked very nice. We got to see the place where they would be doing crafts, projects, and all kinds of entertainment for the residents. It was all very nice. I think it was a hotel that was renovated for assisted living. They sat down and talked with us, they showed us the pictures, and we got pamphlets. We got all kinds of verbal information and written information that we could take home with us. The staff we met were very intelligent. They were telling us all kinds of information, showing us the projects that they had been working on, and showing us the crafts that they have for the residents, some of the plans they have for the future, and things for them to do. What we saw was great. They also have patios, and they have a pool that's being reconstructed so that it can be used for water aerobics."
