Memory Care Communities in Gainesville, FL

"Charter Senior Living of Gainesville was very nice. Everybody was super. I was very impressed with the place. The facility was very nice and very clean. The dining room was just beautiful. No concerns at all. The staff member, Eric, was awesome. He was just a super, super nice guy. He answered all my questions. No issues whatsoever. I had all the information. They had a beauty salon. The outside area in the front and also the outside lobby area was really nice. They had a list of the monthly calendar of all the activities. The place was very homey."

"I toured and it was great. I like everything about it. I was impressed with every aspect of it, which is why I chose it. The staff was very pleasant, gave wonderful information, and was very receptive to my questions. I picked this particular place because of the space and compared to some of the other places, the room was larger. They were very nice. I'm sure that if my mom decides to participate, she will enjoy what they offer."

"My friend is at The Village at Gainesville. There's really good nursing care and support. It has a nice atmosphere. There are really great community spaces. My friend is in an efficiency room, so her space is pretty small. And she said she just considers some of the community spaces as her living room. There would be nice spaces if she had family or friends come to be able to sit in a cozy space and visit. She felt like there were good programs to participate in, too. There is a devotional time each day, and she's a woman of faith. They have a small exercise room with a few machines, and that's going to be helpful to her. She moved from independent to assisted living. My friend's sister and I are the ones who helped her visit places, and we love this place, too. Another thing that was a real recommendation is that there's beautiful landscaping and some outdoor patio space that was important to her. She loves the outdoors. I have not been up to seeing my friend since she moved in, but as a visitor, I felt like the staff members were friendly and encouraging. We talked to a couple of the nurses that were making rounds, and they were encouraging. The person who showed us the place was very knowledgeable and helpful. For activities, I think they have a couple of things every day. They provide transportation, so my friend has continued doing a few things with the larger community. As for the value for money, it's so expensive but it covers so much. I feel like it's a little bit higher than some of the other places, but everything was included. Some places have a rental rate and then have a separate scale for the medical care that you need and medications and at The Village at Gainesville, for my friend, it was all included in one thing, so that was convenient and easy. So I think it's a fair amount, even though it's just a little hard to look at that amount every month."

"It had a very nice, homey atmosphere. The staff was very cordial. The rooms were very clean, very spacious, very nice. The food is very good. They have games and movies. They bring people in to sing and entertain, and they also take them out in the bus to different places. Within a mile, there are grocery stores and gas stations. It doesn't seem like an institution. It's just a nice place to live."

"The Windsor Of Gainesville is a beautiful community. The staff was really, really nice, too. I looked at their food list and it was very, very good. The facility is totally beautiful and very clean. They had a theater and a huge activity room. They literally had a room where they had stored all the activities and stuff. They probably have the biggest activity room I have seen, and with so many supplies in it. Then they also had a whole sitting area with tables and everything for the residents to do their activities."

"Plantation Oaks Senior Living would have been a great place for my dad. It is a wonderful facility. I felt like the staff was almost familial. They treated the residents like they were family. It was a very clean, and pleasant place to be in aesthetically. They have a salon, a community room, a game room, and an outdoor space with rocking chairs where people could just enjoy the weather. "
