Silvercrest at Garner

Transportation services, housekeeping, 2 meals a day, maintenance, exercise class, ambassador/concierge onsite security available 24 hours with emergency response system. Friendly staff and residents.

My husband and I have lived in Independent Living at Silvercrest for 7 years. We enjoy activities and the welcoming and friendly residents are like family. We enjoy having two meals a day provided for us.

I think the facilities and the staff are very good. Housekeeping and laundry is done weekly. Personally, I find the staff very helpful in everything I've asked of them . I don't eat there, but my loved one sometimes likes the meals and sometimes not, just like others. There are meals where I'm at that are good and some not. Overall, the rent is quite high, but I'm sure it's in line with other places.

I worked with my sister-in-law to help her find a retirement apartment that would give her enough space for most of her things and we settled on Silvercrest Garner. We have been impressed on the overall helpfulness and friendliness of this facility. Definitely made the correct decision for her. [removed], sister-in-law of [removed].

My apartment is very nice and nicely decorated. I got the first floor so I do not have to take the elevator. I like the fact that they always have a lot of activities going on, and they are optional. They have a continental breakfast every morning and the option for lunch or breakfast. The food is very good. I like the cleanliness of the place and housekeeping that cleans my floors every other week.

The community is comfortable and so far has been a good fit for my loved one. The staff has been very friendly, they help her up when she needs to get up. They take her to appointments whenever needed. We have not heard her complain about this place. She is making new friends and has her own little group at her lunch table.

Both my parents are in the independent living and they like it so far. The staff are kind and welcoming. It is a clean community with housekeeping in my parent's unit. I believe they like the food that is served. They have a very large apartment with a huge bedroom, nice living room, and full kitchen. My mom likes to play cards, my dad has been to the men's group and there are more activities and outings.

The community was in the process of expanding the Alzheimer's unit, so they are currently under construction. The staff that offered the tour were very friendly and knowledgeable. They were able to address all of my questions.

Silvercrest Garner was a wonderful community. The apartment we viewed was much larger and nicer than we expected. The staff were very kind and addressed all of my concerns. They offered activities for the residents and they kept the community very clean. We didn't choose Silvercrest because it was a bit far for our family to visit.

I think they are terrific. They are wonderful. The girls that work for them are just outrageous. They work really well with hospice. Brittany, on the nursing staff at Silvercrest, has been wonderful, and goes out of her way to show mom affection. The office people are so nice, and they take the time. It was open and airy, and people were out and smiling.

For my mother it was worth every penny, i love the staff, i love the care, i just don't care much for the facility. It's just very improperly lit, its just dark, its not very cheerful, it's absolutely clean, the accomodations are very nice, the care was excellent. The staff was just outstanding in changing to her changing needs, she was not forced to move into nursing care or more substantial care, they were able to accomodate her changing needs and they were changing by the week. They were able to care for her until the end and not having to move her was HUGE for the money, it didn't cost us any more and I have to say, their director of nursing, I wouldn't have wanted any one else to care my mother other than her, she was very caring and kind. She was more worried about my mother and what her care needs were than anything else.

My sister lives in the independent living and her side is just beautiful, the decor, the lighting, the shared space, its just very very comforting and comfortable, and very homie, just very nicely done. She like it a lot. Of course on their side, their interaction is a lot different than independent living, they're able to come and go more easily and they need very little assistance so they can have gatherings for cards and games and movies and physical fitness so they're able to enjoy more activities together. My impression is that it's a little pricey compared to other facilities but it's definitely a five.
