Angel Gardens Assisted Living

My sister has been adjusting well at Angel Gardens Assisted Living. The staff has been very good. If any problems arise, I'm able to converse with them. Medications are being administered, as directed by the doctor. She likes to stay in her room. She feels comfortable there, but they come and get her three times a day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner or to go to a bingo game. It's not like she's being forced to be with people, but she is interacting with them. She's being fed. She calls me every day or I call her family, but we're allowed to go visit her. We take her to church on Sundays. She loves that. She can go to a restaurant with the family and she's not tied down. It's not like she's in a prison. There's a code and families are allowed to go in and out. The reason why the locks are on the door is that there are memory care residents on the third floor.

I had to make a hard decision of putting my mom in assisted living. I had several different appointments with several different assisted living places. After talking to Kamal, I knew this was the place for my mom. I cancelled all my other appointments. The place could use a remodel, but the care my mom gets is my main concern!! They have a lot of different activities for the residents. The favorites are bingo or doing puzzles. The food is excellent here. If your loved one is going to have a roommate, they wait for about 1 or 2 months to pair your loved one up with another resident. I love moms roommate. My mom has dementia and was very angry when I told her she was coming there. My mom loves it there too now that she has adjusted. Mom has been there for 10 months now. Rena has been very helpful in reporting how she thinks mom is doing. I love Rena! They have been very cautious with Covid and the residents. They only allowed 2 visits per week to protect all the residents, which was a good idea. The medications are handled by Nora and she is very much on the ball with each residents meds. The rooms are adequate. I am very happy with Angel Gardens!! ❤️

Staff inter acts with the patients on a respectful and caring way. The food served at all meals is very good.

My mother has been staying at Angel Gardens for 11 months. While the building is not modern it is clean, rooms are warm in the Winter and window ACs are provided when it is warm. A couple of months ago there was a period of 2-3 weeks where I felt that my mother was not getting washed properly and her briefs changed often enough. Prior to that things had been fine so I don't know what happened. I spoke to the workers but there was no improvement. A week later I informed the top manager, Kamal, of my concerns. When she became aware of my concerns, I felt that she really wanted every resident to receive the best care possible. Things changed for the better immediately! Also, she or her assistant has made weekly contact with me to make sure that everything is okay. When my mother's sister came from across the state to visit my mother for several days, I went to the office to make arrangements and pay for her to eat lunch with my mother for 3 days. The owner told me that my aunt's lunch was "on the house". My aunt said that the lunches were very good and she like the food! They offer activities all day Monday through Saturday. Residents are encouraged to participate but it is not forced on them. The caregivers are friendly to my mom and when she has had problems with her personal cell phone, Noor tried to troubleshoot first then she called me to let me know that there was a problem. This week I received a call from Jamie letting me know that my Mom's remote for her TV was giving a low battery signal. She said that she looked in the dresser drawer but didn't see any. I appreciated the phone call. My mother has had a stroke and as a result, she is not able to speak. She would not have been able to tell me herself and she loves to watch her shows. Because of the phone call, my husband was able to bring batteries there that evening. I must admit that I am impressed with the fact that I have seen the owner on the premises multiple times even as late as 7:00 p.m. Also, top management is present for a full day on the weekends. It is very easy to find management when you have a concern.

My brother moved into Angel Gardens. I'm satisfied with them. His room is always very clean. I've seen activities for the residents like bingo, people come in to do stuff and socialize with them. They treat the people like a family member. I've heard from my brother that the food is good, and from what I've viewed, it looks very well-presented. The dining room is clean and sociable, where they're sitting amongst the friends that they’ve made. This community offers assisted living with memory care. The staff is very pleasant, I've never had a bad interaction with any of the staff members on any of the times that I've been there.

My grandfather is living here (not my choice). It is run down, old, depressing and dirty. The facility needs major improvements and is not welcoming. The elevator has been broken for over a month. The care is okay, the staff seems nice enough, but does not interact with the residents as much as they should. For example we visited my grandpa in the dining room and the staff was just passing out food and was not talking or interacting with the residents. They do not get to pick their table or who they eat with. My grandfather is made to sit with another man who he does not get along with. The care is okay, There have been some errors that have ended up causing him to go to doctor. I feel they could be doing more to deal with dehydration that has landed him in the hospital. I would not recommend sending your loved one here. I wish I had more say to get my grandfather out.
