Memory Care Communities in Commerce, GA

"The Landing of Winder was a beautiful facility. I was looking for my dad and they had a lot of great programs and a lot of great activities. I felt like the care that they give each resident is greater than that of some other facilities. They seemed to have a good ratio of employees and nurses to the residents, so I felt good about that. The thing that stuck out for me is that they offer not only assisted living and memory care but they offer transitional care, which is kind of in-between both, so it kind of gives the resident the best of both worlds (assisted living and memory care) and that's what I was looking at for my dad. It looks like each program is very individualized or tailored to each individual. I know they do some type of therapy that kind of helps people go back and recollect things and review their memories, they kind of go to different places, places they may have been, or places they may have visited in the past. They kind of go back to those places virtually and it helps to kind of get in touch with the memories they may have had before. All in all, I would highly recommend The Landing of Winder."

"Awesome facility, very large and roomy, open deck on back, nice dining area, food was delicious!"

"I stayed at Bountiful Hills Senior Living for two-and-a-half years. It was good. I thought I was going to have to stay there, but I enjoyed the time I was there. Everything was fine. The staff was very good and confident in what they did and always answered my needs. The food was very good. We had activities during the day making something. I had a little box and put up broken pieces of mirror in it. We didn't go out because it was during the pandemic. We would watch TV and have maybe a milkshake in the afternoon or Coke floats or something like that. We would go outside on July 4th or something to have a cookout."

"My mother is currently at Brookside Commerce. They are very attentive to her, very patient, and understanding. They communicate well. They provide a lot to keep them occupied. They are inviting and clean, which is very important. They do a good job of doing the laundry, which I appreciate very much. They make her bed every day for her. When she needs assistance, they assist her. They are very quick to respond if she has to push her button. They communicate well with me. They keep me posted on everything that transpires with her. She gets her medication like she's supposed to get. They keep good records. If she gets in one of her moods and decides not to take her medication, they communicate that to me as well. They are very kind. They do a good job with their menu. It has variety. They offer some options if you don't like what's available. You can get a salad. They post it for the week, and they post it for the day on the table. There is plenty of communication about what the meals are. Every time I saw the food and been there when she was eating, it looked appetizing. They did win Best Jackson Senior living for two years in a row from the Jackson Herald, so I think that's pretty good."

"We cannot say enough about the staff at Orchard. They honestly treat you like family and care about all of the residence. Taryn, Kailey, Rusty, Sarah, Mary and the rest of the staff go over and above to communicate with the family and provide fun activities for the residence. My dad is rarely ever in his room and is very happy. We are so thankful that we chose Orchard for our Dad. "

"My mother in law moved into Autumn Breeze. What stood out was the price, and they’re helping her get VA benefits. It was a smaller, quaint, clean, and older community, but it’s very nice. They have activities all day -- like ice cream at 3:00 -- and they have coffee hour. "

"I really liked BeeHive Homes of Gainesville. I was impressed with it, but there's no real place that one can comfortably sit outside in the sun. The kitchen staff seemed great and the kitchen gave me the feeling of family. It's really comfortable. It didn't feel like a 5-star hotel where you have servants. They're just real nice people and I was really impressed with that. The rooms were small for me. I have a lot of hobbies so I was concerned about that. The kitchen was real nice. Everybody -- the owner, the manager, and the employees -- were friendly. It's not a big place and I like that. They're all pleasant and very nice. The facility was nice."

"Very friendly, helpful staff. Beautiful facility with many amenities. Excellent communication with staff. "

"Ashton Senior Living is a fairly new facility, but the rooms are extremely small. It was assisted living only. They showed us their biggest room for assisted living, and it was OK for one person, but it would not come near satisfying our needs. The location was OK, and they didn't seem to have much grounds. It was in a very tight neighborhood. "

"The Phoenix at Lake Lanier was gorgeous. The staff was very nice, it was a very large facility, they have a lot of assisted living there, beautiful grounds, they have the ability to visit with their family inside, outside, and it was very hospitable. They had a large activity room, I met their activity director, plus some of the individuals that worked in the memory care. All through that facility it was very clean, people were very nice, I watched their interactions with the residents, and they were all very comfortable together. They were feeding them dinner because that was after work when I went by. Most of the residents were sitting in the dining room, the residents seemed to be enjoying the food, and it smelled good. It just wasn't right for our family at this time, but it would be perfect for someone that is not as late stage as my mom is in a hospice situation."

"Located off a main road, Peachtree Plantation is private, but still close to the doctor's office. This facility, which has both assisted living and memory care, is owned by Principal Senior Living Group, which is not as big as some of the other corporate owners; it's run more like a mom and pop operation than a big franchise. When you enter, you see a nice den and a huge open area for meals and activities. The place has a friendly, open feel. The staff throughout is very friendly and works well together. The rooms are of average size"”and residents are not allowed to cook there. There is enough room for a bed and dresser, which residents furnish on their own. The memory care unit is locked with a keypad. Instead of being cluttered and confined as many memory care units seem to be, it feels really open, with plenty of places for people to walk. There are also great comfortable lounging chairs for those who wish to rest. There is an enclosed garden area, which is also great for walking and getting fresh air. The dining room offers a standard menu, but there are also options of soups, salads and sandwiches daily for those who don't find the daily offerings to their liking. There are really good activities for those who live in assisted living"”including a cook-off, music under the stars, and importantly, many activities that bring in the community to both strengthen residents' connections to the surroundings and to bring awareness of older people to the community. However, in the memory care unit, all residents of varying levels of mental acuity are grouped together in the activities; as a result, many of them don't seem engaged or creatively stimulated. The cost is average for the area: $2,300 to $2,800 per month for those who first become residents. "

"My aunt moved into Rainbow Senior Care Home and she is doing great there. She is in the memory care and their staff is very attentive and very helpful. We were in a situation where we needed to get her to a different facility ASAP and Rainbow Senior Care Home acted promptly. They helped us move her in a matter of hours. Everything is very clean and neat. It's a very family-oriented environment."

"Laurel Lodge Assisted Living & Memory Care is a clean and caring place. It's new, they opened up in September, so there's not a lot of reviews. Part of that concern is, you have to deal with new paint, new carpet smells, and things like that, which some people might be sensitive to. There is a lot of carpet there, if I remember correctly. They have standard single rooms, deluxe rooms, and shared rooms. I did not tour the memory care, my sister toured that, but the memory care is set up identical to the assisted living. If you move from assisted living, the transition is easier. They have a lot of activities too. They have snacks out, coffee out, but I did not attend during the mealtime. The price is the only part I didn't like, but they all seemed happy there, and there's plenty of things to do."
