Country Gardens Lanier

My father and mother both live at Country Gardens. I believe the caretakers are genuinely concerned about the folks who live there. The caretakers know each person on a personal level, and the environment feels like home ! I know that this time of Covid has been very stressful for everyone. When Country Gardens had to respond with a time of quarantine, I felt confident that my parents were getting the best care possible. My Dad told me there were multiple visits by the staff throughout each day. I am thankful for the loving care that each person receives by the patient and loving people who work there.

I do know they take good care of people, and my loved one has dementia. It seems like they watch after them really good. When I go in there, everything's always been clean. The care is pretty good, but I think they could use more people. The staff are always running around doing stuff. The food's pretty good. It has good flavor. The meal I tried was chicken and rice, mixed vegetables, and chocolate cake, with sweet tea. With Covid, there weren't really activities for a while. But they got a new activities director, and she always has something going on for the residents - playing games, holiday celebrations. At Easter, there was fruit and a little buffet for the residents, with games and prizes. Everybody got a stuffed bunny. The activities director brought in watermelons the other day and cut them up, and everyone was loving it. They have a happy hour - she'll take fruit with sparkling grape juice and make them a drink. They've been really happy with it. Before, they used to give them wine, but she's trying to get away from that. She's also planted them a little garden that the residents can help tend if they want to. There's a new director as well, but it's been a positive change. They've done a lot more stuff, decorating the place more, doing the flowers outside and hanging ferns up. Those things were there before, but it's a lot better now. It's like they're putting more money into stuff.

There is high staff turnover and lack of compassion Staff has their favorites and the rest of residents are out of luck I know COVID has taken its toll on employees, but the residents care is their responsibility

This is a truly wonderful place for my Dad. The staff is above awesome! It’s a smaller community but that helps my dad make better and closer friends. He has one of the smaller rooms but it encourages him to get out more and socialize with his roommates and neighbors. I would absolutely recommend this community!

Very nice place and [name removed] was great to work with. We will be using them.

Country Gardens is always a pleasant refreshing stop for me! The staff are always kind. They make the environment feel like home when you enter. Everyone is very knowledgeable and helpful!

Country Gardens cares about their community members. The facility is always clean and fresh. The staff treat my mother-in-law like family. Her wellbeing comes first.

Very attentive staff and they look after my mother well. Building is clean and neat without unpleasant odors or signs of lack of care.

So far so great!

Perfect

Caretakers are great. Very helpful. Kitchen staff nice.

When our family needed a place for our Mother, we decided on Country Gardens Senior Living at Lanier. We wanted a place that had a kind and caring staff, a wonderful home environment and lots of love. We found it here and we are so thankful.

I love it here, but it and everything could be better. To me, when it is great it doesn't need improvement.

I gave a 4 Star only cause parking is cramped on delivery day. Overall, clean and courteous, wonderful community.

Love the staff!

I deal with my share of these communities and CGL is at the top! Wonderful group--wonderful community.

Community is always clean, staff is very friendly.

I print the calendars for the community. I think community is a 5 Star Place!

The food is very good! The staff is always pleasant and helpful--they check on me often. It's a wonderful place here. I've made many new friends. I enjoy the group outings. Bev takes us shopping every week.

I find the employees very kind and thoughtful. The place is very clean. I would advise anyone looking for a place for a loved one to consider placing them here.
