I would say that the direct care staff was incredible, the management was more worried about who was the most in charge and if people were doing what they said vs what the patients need. They're understaffed and the staff that's there adored my mom but simply couldn't keep up with the demands.

July 11, 2024We're grateful for your kind words and thank you for taking the time to share your positive experience during such an emotional and difficult time Marcia. Your mom was a lovely lady. Sending you strength today and peace in your days ahead.
My mom moved into Garnett Gardens in 2018. She was in assisted living. She loved the activity of people always being around. She visited with friends. Loved playing in the Nut Goodie Band. Entertainment, making lefse and other food. We moved her into the Memory Care unit awhile ago when she could no longer be in AL. It was a perfect fit. She feels safe and has friends. The new activity person for MC, [name removed], is awesome. She has activities everyday. They play games, make pies, cakes, lefse. There is bingo and music. The ladies get there nails touched up every week. She has made a difference for the residents and the workers. The workers, aids, CNA's, LPN's, RN's, maintenance, office people are all wonderful. They get to know the residents and their family members.

My name is Joe, I’ve been living here for a month. I love it here, the other residents are a hoot, the staff is great. I really feel “at home” here. Their assisted living here is awesome. Being a brain cancer & stroke survivor my needs are taken care of

May 5, 2022Thank you for your review and input, it's greatly appreciated! We're very happy that Garnette feels like home and you are enjoying it. We're glad you're here!
The building is like a mansion when you walk in and beautifully decorated. The rooms are large. I would like the menu's to be posted in your newsletter or in a link including Breakfasts. Some of the kitchen staff could be friendlier and more flexible. The quality of the food has gone down significantly since I have moved in and I have been told over the years. Need fresh fruit variety. The hamburger buns were once not good but now are yummy and like homemade! They have good soups. I wish there was more variety and the portions are quite small at times. THey have pie every Sun. The Decorations are incredible I don't know how they do it! Everybody loves Catie THe Nurses are very kind. THe close-by walking trails are superior!
