Ascension Living Alexian Village - Tennessee (Independent Living) in Signal Mountain, TN
4.6

I have lived here for 11 years and am very happy with my choice. My children do not have to find a nursing home for me when I need one. I have already made that choice myself. When I need to go to a place to live with a higher level of care, that is available without a major move. Maintenance of the facility is improving.

Rosewood Manor in Scottsboro, AL
5.0

They have an activity room with puzzles and things like that but then they also had entertainment come in as well it seemed like every day. For the price it is a very nice facility. Everyone knows each other and watches out for each other. Any residents who wanted to help with cooking or anything like that, they were encouraged to do that. It was like sharing a house. [name removed] the director is also a nurse. She was very easy to talk with and open. If any residents need medical care they had a doctor who would come every Friday so you did not have to leave the facility. It is a smaller facility with only 16 rooms so the care is more personalized. They do have a memory care facility next door that is attached by an outdoor fenced in area. There is not a lot of green space between the buildings, but they were supposed to be doing renovations this winter to update that so residents had more space to get outside. They have plenty of outdoor seating on the front porch for the residents. The majority of the facility is women, for a while our loved one was the only guy. I do know another guy has just moved in. I would definitely recommend Rosewood Manor to others.

Ascension Living Alexian Village - Tennessee (Assisted Living) in Signal Mountain, TN
5.0

I was extremely pleased with Ascension. The establishment, as well as the patients, were always very clean. I never detected any smells or odors -- and I have a keen sense of smell! They were communicative, helpful, and caring from my first visit until my Mom's death. My mom suffered from dementia, and was in the memory care unit. The staff was awesome, and during her stay there, the patient/staff ratio was such that, in my opinion, she received top notch care. Even though Covid was on the decline while she was there, I had to call ahead to schedule visitation, but was never denied, and I could call anytime during the day or night to check on her. I visited a couple of other places before deciding on Ascension, and they all paled miserably in comparison to Ascension. It was just the place I was looking for, and I would highly recommend it. Ascension was exactly what I was looking for.
