18 Nursing Homes Communities in Atlanta, Georgia

My friends are in Dunwoody Health and Rehabilitation Center. The staff is pleasant, the building is well maintained, and the second floor to the rooms are nice. The rooms were normal size, both have shared rooms, and they seemed to be well cared for. They have activities and exercise or therapy areas.

We ended up moving our mother into Brighton Gardens of Dunwoody, which is a Sunrise community. So far it's been good, and she's enjoying it. They're meeting her needs and the price is affordable, so it seems to be a good match. Her room there is small, but we kind of knew that going into it. They have activities like bingo, reading, movies, and they have outings that I have been told about. Their dining area is nice. It looked good. They have a small courtyard which is nice, the overall layout seems fine, and the people are all very pleasant, which is the biggest factor. The staff has been good. She's enjoying the food there, although I haven't experienced it firsthand.

I chose Brighton Gardens of Buckhead for my mother because it has the most residential atmosphere. It smells fresh and clean. The staff members are very friendly. However, I can say that they are terrible once you're in there. There is nobody to follow up. There is not one person on the floor because everybody is at lunch, and they left my mother there. It is atrocious at this point. My mother has been there for three weeks now. The people are friendly, but they don't do anything. If I'm paying to have these things done and I go there and find out they're not being done, don't come back and say, 'But I check your mother, and she said she is happy,' because she also got mental problems. It is very deceiving. It is not depressing, but it is strange because they'll tell you what you want to hear. They don't return phone calls, they don't return emails, they don't return texts, and that makes me feel like I'm pestering them. It is frustrating. My mom doesn't do any of the amenities. She hasn't gone anywhere since she got there except they have taken her to the hair appointment and nail appointment. The food is not well balanced. They give them all the ice cream and desserts they want. They are overly friendly, but they do not do anything. They just tell you exactly what you want to hear to make you feel better and then they go about their business.

Brighton Gardens of Buckhead was fantastic. I really liked the facilities altogether. The person who took care of me was great. Everything was new, fresh, and clean. They had a pretty full social calendar. The residents seemed very connected to each other and socialize with one another.

We found Brighton Gardens of Dunwoody to be homey-looking. The one-bedroom apartments are pretty spacious, and so far we've been pretty happy with the care my mother-in-law is getting there. She doesn't want to participate in the activities, but the activities director always encourages her to join. They have a walking group in the mornings and afternoons and exercise programs where most of the clients use a chair to do exercises. They also have sing-alongs, ice cream socials, card club, bridge club, and some other type of games like puzzles. They also take the residents out to eat once a week at different restaurants right around the area, and go on little outings to some of the art galleries or shopping at Walmart. There's also a nice library with a lot of books, and they play games to keep the mind active. Everybody I've met there was friendly and helpful.
