Nursing Home Communities in Gainesville, GA

"Since my mother broke her leg, we had to put her into rehab in Friendship Health and Rehab. The facility is an older facility, but it's clean and smells nice. The staff is real helpful and they are very caring. I was very surprised when I first walked in, they're rated very high. They don't have any deficiencies or any of that in their last score. I have to rate them a four only because the facility is old; other than that, if it was a newer building, people would be fighting to get in. I'm happy with them. "

"We toured Chelsey Park Health & Rehabilitation. When we toured it, we saw things that none of us thought about having to teach someone who may have had a stroke like our mom. I mean, they had a bedroom set up so that they could teach them how to get in and out of bed safely. They had a car or a little pickup truck without the bed of the truck so they could teach them how to get in and out of a car from a wheelchair or a walker. They had like a little store set up teaching them how to pick out vegetables, and a booth in a restaurant to teach them how to get in and out. So it was just like things I never thought of that some may need to be shown and it was just truly amazing. They had a private room where there was one patient and they had their bathroom. It was very neat. The patients' rooms were on the second and third floor and each floor had a porch like you could go out there if you were in a wheelchair or walker. You could go out there and sit and just look at the mountains. The staff was very nice. They greeted us with eye contact. The girl that we would have seen happened to be in a meeting so she couldn't give us a tour, but the little girl who worked in the front end said, "I'll be glad to take you around." So she did. She took us to all three floors, and showed us their bathing area, the laundry room, just everything. She did a very good job."

"My mother in Law was in this facility and they gave her good care. They were very friendly. The rooms are small but they offered activities for her to do so she was not in her room alot. "

"My grandmother was at Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital of Cumming. The thing I appreciated was that they fudged an extra day out of it because Medicare only pays for a maximum of two weeks, and so they made her start date later than it was to give her some extra therapy time and to give her more time there. I liked that they gave her two extra nights/one extra day for free. So that was good for her. The staff were very caring, compassionate and very helpful. They made all her doctor's appointments before they discharged her, so that was good. The therapy was very good there. The level of care was very good. Just every part of it was very good. The facility was clean and well-kept. It was inpatient, it was an extension of the hospital, and so it was very hospital-like."

"My father has been at Chestnut Ridge Nursing and Rehabilitation for a few months now, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the care he’s receiving. The staff is not only professional but genuinely kind and attentive. Every time I visit, I notice how clean and well-maintained the facility is, and my father always mentions how much he enjoys the meals and the activities they offer. What really stands out is how the nurses and aides treat residents like family — with patience, respect, and real compassion. They’ve also done a great job keeping us in the loop with his care plan and progress. It's such a relief knowing he’s in a place where he’s safe, comfortable, and treated with dignity. Highly recommend Chestnut Ridge to any family looking for quality care for a loved one."

"Cumming Nursing and Rehab is an exceptional place and that is due to its highly trained and skilled staff. I am a physician and have worked with nurses for the past 25 years. I was really impressed with everyone here. My father was transferred from another rehab in Florida and admitted to the rehab here and the care he received saved his life a couple of times. The nurses are very experienced and pay strong attention to details. Emma was one of the nurses who saved my dad's life when his blood sugar dropped too low. She also saw that his left leg was swollen and a doppler study was done in house that showed a blood clot in his leg. Emma is an exceptional and caring nurse. Omegus, one of the nursing assistants, saved my dad's life on another occasion when his oxygen malfunctioned. Wanda, the activities director, was just wonderful. Denise Brock, a highly skilled nurse, accepted my father into this outstanding facility and I will forever be grateful for her professionalism and follow-up. The entire experience from beginning to end was excellent and I recommend them very highly."

"The Oaks at Scenic View is good and the staff is excellent. My mother-in-law has been in there for about two and a half months or so. She has had really good physical therapy and she has a private room. The physical therapists and doctors on staff are great."

"My Wife was a resident of The Oaks....She had just had triple bypass and was transferred there for her Rehab....this Facility was The Best! Shelley was a Great Cheer Leader for Ellen and got her through the program in record time...The Rooms were Spotless, The Food was Tasty and always On time....Her Needs were Met and She Loved being there...I felt Confident that she was Cared For...."

"I got my dad in Northridge Health & Rehabilitation. We chose them for the staff and the cleanliness of the facility. The atmosphere is wonderful. The property grounds are impeccable. They have activities. It was a very lengthy list of activities. I have not tried their food but he says it's wonderful. He is actually doing physical therapy. They have determined that he got some limited mobility from previous surgery that he had, so they're in the process of getting his strength back. They're very involved with the residents. They have multiple community rooms. They have very large community rooms with TVs. I think a lot of men get together for college game days and football. They get to watch TV and watch games and stuff like that, which is actually really cool."

"The staff were very helpful and caring. The facility overall is amazing!"

"The staff care deeply for the residents here. The place is not up to date but its the love that they show to their resident is what matters. They have a variety of activities, wonderful therapy department and experienced nurses. "

"Mom and dad are in Habersham Home. They're very well taken care of and I couldn't ask for a better staff. They have socials, something planned every day, and my mom participates. They have Bingo, all kinds of games, lemonade socials, popcorn and movies, and the residents go outside for walks. The staff is excellent."

"I toured The Bridge At Lawrenceville. It was clean. It was conveniently located near family. Everyone was very friendly. They had a courtyard and a dining area. We've looked at a deluxe one-bedroom. The dining area was a nice restaurant-style. My only issue was that it was not as modern as I wanted it to be. However, it was good, and it was a good experience. I would recommend it to anyone who could afford it."
