We really liked and were impressed by The Phoenix at Tucker. It was a newer building, the residents that we happened to see there all seemed to be reactive and engaged. It was very clean, very open, and airy so it had a good feeling to it. The staff who gave the tour was very good. She actually walked us around and showed off the plac,e which was wonderful. She seemed to know not only the building but the rest of the staff and the residents. That was very impressive and encouraging. The facilities are all very good. They had a two-bedroom available to show us. The size of the room looked good and wasn't overly large but it was acceptable. As far as amenities, this one doesn't have a swimming pool. For the level of assisted that we're hoping for Mom, it was adequate and very appropriate.

Memory Care Reviews for The Phoenix at Tucker

I visited this facility
I went to see The Phoenix in Tucker. Their menu is very extensive, and I like it because you have choices. You can have whatever it is the chef has prepared for the day, and it's like usually 2 or 3 choices. If that doesn't suit you, then you can have them prepare you something else. You can also get snacks and stuff. It's not just 3 meals a day, you can have snacks and with dinner they have wine. It's just really like a home.
They have the exercise room, a little library area, an area with computers, and a play area. If your grandchildren come to visit you, you can go outside and sit in jungle gyms and things like that. You can play with your grandchildren just like you might have walked down the street to a little park or something. They have beautiful gardens too.
I feel like it's pretty secure because the memory care area is locked. You can walk around inside, and they have these bracelets that they put on the residents so they can only get so far; they can't get out any door. You don't feel like you're a prisoner there though. I just don't think you could just walk in off the street randomly.
