The Grove Athens

My mom has moved in. They have about 25 residents, they have three meals a day, and they have just a bedroom and a bath for each person. There is a lot of memory care folks out there, but we've been pleased. We're happy where she is until we need to go somewhere else. The rooms were originally built just as a single room, but now they have put two of them together, so you have a living space for the TV and chairs. They're not like apartments. It is just mainly a room because it was built a long time ago. They are built what they call double room but it's two of the smaller rooms with the wall removed in between. It is very comfortable. They have several big areas where they can all meet and do their activities like cards and stuff and have guests come in. They have a big piano, so there's plenty of room for gathering. There are two dining rooms for each part of the building, but it's all one level, so it's very easy to negotiate with a walker. They have a beauty salon, a courtyard, and very nice surroundings. There are rocking chairs on the front porch. It's a very nice setup. My mom has been happy with the meal, but I haven't eaten with her.
