One of the best place to stayyyy

Attia Buckhead is licensed as personal care facility and staffed barebones for that licensure. This is, however, contrary to their marketing. I asked about their licensure upfront, but the salesperson and staff were not forthcoming until my mother moved in. Then the resident service director told me that I would need to hire private duty caregivers from 8:30am to 10pm. The second month mom was there, the med tech who doubles as the resident assistant for the 2nd floor told mama that she had to go to the bathroom too often at night and took her glass of water from her bedside. Mother was intimidated by the staff and became reluctant to ask for assistance. When I asked the medication tech/resident assistant about taking mama’s water glass from her bedside, she stormed out of thr room dismissing my concern. I later received a phone call from the executive director demanding that I leave the facility. Mom was concerned about retaliation. The med tech told me to “Take her too!” I moved mother out at 10pm to days before Thanksgiving. Atria Buckhead misrepresents itself and it’s services; allows their staff to work multiple back to back double shifts, cultivates a gossiping environment and they mistreat residents. This was an unfortunate experience for my 87 year old mother. I reached out to the corporate office but never received a follow up call. They are still sending me a monthly bill.

The community is within walking distance from where I live. It is very well maintained and residents appeared happy. The sales director and nursing director were extremely hospitable. personable. Rooms were nicely decorated and it has a lovely garden. I especially appreciated sales director, [name removed]'s phone call to my Mother.
