Nursing Home Communities in Fairhope, AL

"My mother is getting ready to be placed into Golden Living Center Foley. It is the closest one to us that we were recommended for. The staff seemed to be really nice and helpful. They have an exercise room, and then they have little entertainment areas. They also have their own van. "

"My sister is at Allen Memorial Home. She has a private room. She does not have a bathroom, but she does have a place to wash your hands and a lavatory. She has a closet for her clothes. She's got a chest for her clothes. She has a TV. The room is very clean. In fact, the facility is very clean. It's an older facility. I don't know how old it is, but it's probably one of the oldest. It is very clean. The staff is very good and very concerned. My sister was difficult to begin with, because she was not on the right medication. However, if I had to go somewhere, I would go to Allen Memorial Home. In fact, my husband's two sisters were at Allen Memorial Home, and back then, it was just as good as it is now. They take very good care of their patients. They have activities. They have a beauty shop that my sister can go to on Mondays. I just really like it. They have a dining area, but my sister has food in her room. The food is good though. She is very satisfied with it. The staff that I met was great. I don't know what it costs because my sister is on Medicare and Medicaid."

"I VISIT THIS FACILITY OFTEN WHEN I'M IN TOWN AND THE STAFF IS ALWAYS WONDERFUL! IT'S AN OLDER BUILDING BUT VERY WELL KEPT. MY AUNT GETS GREAT CARE THERE AND HAS FOR YEARS. SHE IS TREATED LIKE SHE IS A PART OF THEIR FAMILY AND WE REALLY APPRECIATE IT!! "

"What an amazing place. Having visited and had relatives in different nursing home facilities over the years all over the country I have had a very good overview of the care offered to our elderly. And I can say with great enthusiasm that the care offered by the Little Sisters of the Poor is the best I've ever witnessed. This includes the best, very costly commercially run facilities in our area. I brought a friend over from what was supposedly one of the best homes and she was just stunned at the cleanliness, friendliness and not to mention the delicious food served by caring staff and volunteers. And I have personally seen this care given regardless of color, sex or religion. What an amazing place."

"We had a wonderful experience at Ashland Place Health & Rehab. They took very good care of my stepmom with a pleasant & positive attitude. The staff, including the administration were always willing to help me through this "journey" with my stepmom as this was my first experience with an aging parent. I can't thank them enough and will always be grateful for the care they gave mom especially in her last days here on earth. Her room and food was acceptable and mom never complained about either. Their PT, OT, and speech therapy dept. was excellent!"

"I was so nervous putting my mother in a home and she didn't make it easy for me, but Momma is happy now! She started out for just rehab, but was not able to get strong enough to go home. They are so good to her and she has made a few friends. The staff has made her feel comfortable and I couldn't be more relieved. She has been there for 5 months now and I have zero complaints. Shout out to Ms. Tangie for making Momma laugh all the time! We love her!!"

"This has to be one of the cleanest nursing facilities I've ever visited. Upon entering the building there is no odors, and the staff were knowledgeable and very friendly. "

"Great staff CNA good My mom thought the maintenance man was a cna but Christopher I think his name was so helpful from the time my mom was there to the time she left HOUSEKEEPING was very seeet and polite if we ever needed a place to go Back we would"

"My mother was at Mercy Medical before she passed away. The nurses, directors and everybody were very good at their job and with what they were supposed to do. "

"If you love your “loved one” and want to have them in the finest place for the cost, avoid Knollwood at all costs. Their boutique rooms have not been updated since the 1980’s and there is no hope of your loved one being saved should an emergency arise. They are understaffed and while not listed as a “memory care facility,” they do have patients who fall in that category. The food is awful, they overmedicate and under attend their “residents.” I have seen patients in jail who received better care and attention. The average time for a diaper change is 45 minutes to 1.5 hours. When choosing a place for your family, or anyone you esteem, avoid Knollwood because it is a nightmare not a dream."

"Great facility, the care given to my mother was great. We were able to get a private room and the therapy she was given after her knee surgery was wonderful. The staff was very nice and the room was clean. "

"The nurses that I met while visiting this facility were nice while in my presence. I personally believe however that they contributed to my fathers death. Before my Father had been in this facility he was in another facility located in Daphne, AL for a month or two with no problems. Within two to three days of being moved to Eight Mile Nursing and Rehabilitation my fathers condition deteriorated extremely fast. He went from being awake and conscious to sleeping all day long and not being able to wake up even when any of my family would come to see him. I was very disturbed by this behavior since my father never slept this much before moving to this facility. After a few days my father was moved to the hospital and remained there for a few weeks until he was able to come home even though his condition was still not that of before he went to the nursing home. A few weeks later my father passed away. I believe that eight mile nursing and rehabilitation sedated him so they didn't have to deal with him and because he was asleep all the time they neglected to try and keep him hydrated which worsened his condition and eventually contributed to his death.

"My mom, 94 years old, has been a resident of Gulf Coast Health and Rehabilitation for about 3 years. The facility is always clean and well managed. Every concern we have had has been addressed immediately with respect and compassion. The quarterly care meetings (either in person or over the phone) we have with the staff are always informative, organized and very beneficial. The entire staff has always been polite, helpful, friendly, and courteous to us and goes above and beyond to meet mom's needs. Mom is well taken care of and happy which means we're happy. I have no problem recommending this facility."
