Nursing Home Communities in Thomaston, GA

"wonderful care of residents, fun activities my daddy is happy there "

"My mother was at this nursing home for almost a month before she passed away. It was close to where I live. I think they've done a good job. "

"My mom is in a place called Reliance Healthcare. We have a relative who works there, so she is familiar with the staff and everything, and their staff is awesome. It is a very clean facility. "

"My mom is currently at Taylor County Health and Rehabilitation. They went above and beyond to help me in getting my mom into their facility. They got us all set up and I didn't have any problems. Everyone is kind and caring, and they make sure that my mom is comfortable. It is a wonderful place. I'm very pleased with the nursing home and the rehab center altogether. It's very clean and they're all very helpful. They call me any time changes ought to be made or something is going on. I'm very happy, very pleased, and very satisfied. Her room is wonderful. The bathroom is right there by the room. The food is good, too. She goes into the recreation room and plays bingo with the other residents there."

"My mom is a resident of Brightmoor Nursing Center. I chose this place because of the cleanliness and the people. I spoke to one of the owners. From what I've seen, they do not use temporary help, everybody there is employed. It's a much better environment than where she was previously. Here in Brightmoor, they kept the food heated. The big rolling container keeps it heated, so, when the patients get the food, it's warm."

"We visited Brightmoor. The rooms were clean, not worn out, and well-cared for. There were 2 people to a room. The buildings were clean and well-kept; there were not a lot of grounds, but it was well-kept. There were plants and flowers in places, and they were pretty. The staff was nice, informative, and interested in her job."

"I didn't want to put my mama in any facility but it came to a point where I had to. Since day one these people have treated my mama like family. She loves them so much and they are so good to her. I know she's in the best place for her. The staff and management are amazing!"

"The best place that I found for Dad was Unihealth Post-Acute Care. It was the best in this area. The person who took care of him during the day really cared for him. She was so nice. The rehab program is really nice. They are not trained to assess. They're trained for custodial care, and people in rehab are trained for rehab. In the wing we were in, they treat them with respect. There is one wing where people are much more impaired as far as getting around, and they wheel those people 2 or 3 times a day for activities. They're really good with that and feeding them. They did a real bath once a week. They had a shower facility, and they would line them up and get them in and get them out, and everybody just loved having a bath, and they had a place where they had their hair done, and the men could get their haircut and shave. They had bingo. They had church services on Sunday that you could go to. They have a movie day. They have something in the morning and something in the afternoon. When they have those little activities, they'll throw them a little something to eat and something to drink while they're doing it. They wheeled him out for that a couple of times. He got to go to the dining room most of the time, but now on the weekend, it's a different story. I'll find him in his bed with a tray over the bed and the head of the bed not up, so he is semi-laying down trying to eat, not nice. So I learned to stay there on weekends, and I learned to stay there for the evening meal every single night because after the evening meal, they are supposed to put them to bed. That's when there's no care because everybody is involved in posting what everyone ate and putting the trays back up. Every single person, including the nursing staff, is in there doing that, and that's when the lights don't get answered. That was the witching hour for me. I had to be there to take care of him at that point. My suggestion there is that they not take everybody off the floor right after supper and have no one there to answer the lights, and instead have one person to answer lights on four halls. I went to see the head of nursing and said Dad was supposed to get his medicine every 2 hours. He should have somebody there to give it to him. He did get his medicine after that. They were very, very kind to me and to him. They would try to keep the same people so he would know who they were. They did a real good job on making sure he wasn't agitated. The nursing home was much more attentive than a hospital. "

"My mother-in-law moved to PruittHealth - Greenville. Most of the staff is very nice. They're very caring. So that is our most important thing to us to make sure that she's comfortable and I think they do their best. I wish there was a little bit more of an updated facility. I know it's been there a long time. There's paint chips and that kind of stuff, but other than that, I mean, that doesn't have anything to do with her care. So her care is done really well. The first time that she was there, she wanted to come home. Every time we went to see her, she cried and cried and it was just awful for about a month and a half, she was like that. So, they suggested that we not come so often and let her get acclimated to the nursing home. So that's what we did, and it worked, that seemed to work for her. The staff is really nice to her. She eats everything they give her. She loves the food. She's getting good care."

"My mother-in-law is now settled at PruittHealth - Forsyth (Heritage Healthcare of Forsyth) and she seems to be satisfied there. They have church services that come in, they play Bingo, and they have auctions on Thursdays. The staff is helpful."

"There is one immediate drawback to this place: It's located in a high crime and drug use area; there's a liquor store at the bottom of the hill to one side"”and housing projects to the other. But when you get closer to the facility, it looks like a cute brick house with rockers on the porch and flowering trees outside. Inside on the left are offices; on the right is a sitting room with a big screen TV and good furniture. There are centralized nurses' stations for the 69 beds here"”with only one or two private rooms. There is very little choice about what to eat. And residents don't seem to be taken outside the building for activities much. But on the plus side, it is very clean"”there are rarely odors. There is low staff turnover; the administrator, who is an RN, has been there at least 10 years. And the activities director, who has also been there a long time, is awesome"”always thinking about fun and engaging things to do. The quality of care is great"”there are RNs and LPNs, and even a nurse specifically dedicated to wound care; because there are few beds, they put more time in with residents than at many other facilities. And the administrator takes the time and effort to come out of her office often and monitor the patients. "

"We chose Heritage Healthcare because my daughter worked there at that time. So we felt a member of the family would see her every day. My mother's been there for over a year now. I just don't feel like they pay that good of attention to the people's needs. Although some of the people there seem really nice. But I'm still looking for something up. "
