Savannah Square

My mother-in-law moved into a 2-bedroom cottage a year and a half ago. We were very hands-on with her move, the staff helped out in a variety of ways, and even provided some basics for her when the moving truck didn't arrive for days. We've stayed with her in her cottage many times, eating in the dining room for numerous meals. Her cottage had lovely features, such as granite counter tops, "wood" laminate floors, and spacious rooms. The two full baths were nicely appointed, as was her full kitchen. Each meal served in the lovely dining room has been good, sometimes very good, with an unparalleled variety of 4 daily specials and 3 pages of static options. It's like being on a cruise! It recently became necessary for us to move her into Savannah Square's assisted living building. Once again, the staff was great, attentive, and kind to all of us as she transitioned. We're very pleased with her apartment, the care she's receiving, and she enjoys the activities, dining room, and attentiveness. Her medications are professionally administered in a compassionate manner. Everyone is very pleased indeed! My kudos to the staff for a job well done!

We are very happy with the move to Savannah Square and I want to thank a Place for Mom for the help and guidance they provided. Our move was only 3 weeks ago so it is hard to be the best judge of all the opportunities we have ahead of us. The food is excellent and enjoy going to the dining room everyday. The people are friendly and have welcomed us to the community.

My mother lives at Savannah Square in Savannah, Georgia. I live in Savannah and quite frequently eat with my mother and spend time with her. Several of the things that are so very wrong with this community are: Quality of food is better at the homeless shelter nearby where I sometimes help out. The food is too often dried out, not what the people ordered, tastes like it is trucked in, dumped in a pot then served. The maintenance is beyond comprehension: When a resident calls for a service, it may take up to three weeks for repair then the person is not knowledgeable to perform the repair. The manager of the complex is nice and when a complaint is filed, he appears to understand and says he will take care of it - but it doesn't happen for several weeks. I will say on the whole, the help is nice and willing but like anywhere else, you get what you pay for and apparently, these employees are not getting paid a dime. Everyone I come in contact with, I mention the poor service and poor management of the community - I don't necessarily fault the manager, but the people that own the facility - some conglomerate that does not care at all - let them have their mother stay here and I wonder if it would improve!
