Ave Maria Home

Ave Maria does not deserve even a single star. A family member of mine lived in this facility and when we visited our family member, we found said family member lying in the bed barely responsive and it was easy to tell it was because of a strong or large amount of sedatives. When we requested information regarding any medications that had been given to our family member, we were amazed to see that the nurses at Ave Maria had given our family member an amount of benzodiazepines capable of sedating a 200 lb. human being even though the person I am speaking of was only 110 lbs at most. We immediately removed our family member from this facility and I apologize for not posting this review sooner. Thank God we got there before the faculty at Ave Maria gave our family member anymore benzodiazepines because they evidently were not worried at all about the comfort of my family member who was under their "care"

Ave Maria Home is clean and well-maintained. The food is good and the staff is friendly. It's not as upscale as the other communities I have visited, but it's not as expensive either. I would recommend them. They have field trips once in a while, card games, social hours, and an exercise room.

I have had two relatives at this facility. They both received excellent compassionate care. My brother,who was terminally ill, received unbelievablely great holistic care, including the distraught, grieving family members. My aunt, who was at Ave Maria Home for over 10 year, required total care for all of those years. She was always neat, well groomed,and clean. The environment was clean and odor free. Our family is grateful for the superb care that our relatives received at Ave Maria Home.

My father is currently in the rehab facility there.. Been there almost 30 days.. This last few days have been hot right.. And at 3000+ a month you'd think get ready for the heat.. Old people are very susceptible to the heat right... It was like an oven in that place ( the rehab unit ).. So to maybe make it a little cooler in his room...I opened the AC. Unit in his room.. OMG.. I almost lost my cookies... If I can post the pictures I took I'll do so.. But let me sum this picture up for you... Legionnaires diseases.!!!!!! So it time to leave.. Yes more... Ask the on duty staff to look at a problem he was having.. Want go in to details. Now discovering sores on his back side... To me under staffed...Find another place for your loved one...

Ave Maria Home was a nice, clean, large place that felt very isolated to me. The people seemed to be fine, but it would be a great distance from my house, and if my mother needs me, I want to be able to get to her right away. We were given a tour by someone who didn't know the community properly.

My mother lived at Ave Maria in the assisted living apartments for eleven years following the death of my did. She loved, loved, loved, living there. She had a regular poker game every single night at 6:00 PM and would plan to go on our family outings after consulting the activities schedule. She loved TH night bingo and Saturday afternoon bingo. The staff would go out of their way to make sure my mother was happy. I think she liked the food and she gained weight while there. The activities van driver would take her anywhere she wanted to go. The nursing staff seemed to really care about my mother. I wish my dad had lived there but he died while they lived in South Florida. Administration has always been very involved and is visible throughout the building. Lots of long term people working there.

Ave Maria is clean and didn’t smell bad. Everybody was nice, and the rooms were nice. It has a couple of stories and probably 100 rooms.

Ave Maria was top notch. They had a wide range of services. The staff was very good. They were very attentive to details, and they seemed to care. The sanitation was very good. One of my parents used it as a recovery facility.

We were pleased with Ave Maria and actually that’s where we want to put her, but the problem was they had a very long waiting list. That was our first choice. We visited there a couple of times; in fact my neighbor was there and we visited her to seehow the situation was. The people were very caring and concerned for everybody. We walked through, and we saw the cafeteria and recreation areas.

Ave Maria Home Care Services was the only one that would charge by the hour instead of having a minimum of four hours. There's about three people that come and it's mainly medication management and then transportation, so it works really well for my parents. I would definitely recommend them.

My Mother had been going to Ave Maria Adult Day Program for two days a week for the last two months. We have been very pleased and she looks forward to the days that she goes. She is treated with kindness, respect and love. They are wonderful! She is receiving so much enjoyment out of going. It is keeping her active and busy!

I visited the facility on a Friday morning. There were a lot of workers and nurses moving about. The facility was nice and clean and had a fresh smell. The entry way looked like the entrance to a club house, which gave it an upbeat feel. Each staff member I encountered was very friendly. I was escorted to one of the apartments by a young lady who answered all of my questions and was very polite. When I got to the apartment, I was pleasantly surprised by the space and decor. The apartment was very modern, had wall to wall carpet and walk in closets. Ave Marie also offers a lot of activities for the residents, which is a wonderful thing for people who are now retired and have a lot of time on their hands. I believe they have a monthly calendar that is published each month full of things to do. And the facility is located in Bartlett, TN which is a very safe and residential area. All in all it seems like a great place for seniors. All in all it seems like a great place for seniors.

My grandmother lived in Ave Maria assisted living for a year before she died. I visited her there many times. There was plenty of parking, but the outside area was not all concrete - the grounds were always beautiful, with green grass and many flowers. The residents had chairs to sit on outside and get fresh air. The building itself also looked really nice from the outside. Walking in made you think you were in a country club - it was classy yet welcoming. My grandmother spent a lot of time upstairs in the library, where residents had access to many shelves of books. She also often played cards with her friends in a public living room area. There were many open spaces for the guests to be social. Her room was very nice, set up like a studio apartment with a sitting area, space for her bed, and a private bathroom. She was allowed to decorate as she pleased, and seemed very happy there.
