We needed a place that would take care of normal daily responsibilities for him plus cook his meals. Everywhere we looked had a typical nursing home feel to it and I was so sad having to consider placing my dad in such a place. He has such a huge spirit, he is the life of the party and he is super active and social. But it seemed that the other facilities were either independent senior living OR full nursing care. "There's GOT to be something in between that offers a range.. something beautiful?? YES! There is! THIS IS IT! Live music every week, happy hour, an elegant dining room where he can sit and chill with his friends and laugh... and he laughs a lot! He loves it at The Orchard! It's the answer to our prayers for the place we'd been dreaming of!

They did not care for my father. They pretty much left him in his room to rot. The food is almost an edible as I had to order him DoorDash, at least five times a week, hire outside care to come in for 10 hours a week because he was just not getting any attention. The head nurse Angie blames her staff for all of her inadequacies, and David the director does not listen to criticism or make any sort of changes. I would not let my father stay here if it was completely free.

This place is phenomenal…read more I am so emotional after my business meeting there today that I almost can't take it. My grandmother didn't have that much dementia, but the place where we "placed" her was not nearly as wonderful as this Emeritus location. I think she would have been a great candidate for one of their "wings" - if only she had lived here and not in Rome, maybe we could have had her there. Here's the deal - Emeritus has 11 metro-Atlanta facilities, four that are dementia-specific, so to speak, and over 400 locations nationwide. From meeting with one of the key folks today, and meeting other staff and directors, it is clear that they are committed to the very best in patient care and treatment. Each resident has a nameplate on the door, and a photo/collage type thing next to their door with whatever they feel portrays them best- family pics, notes, etc. Even better, the four "sections" of the facility are decorated like....things that make you happy! My favorite was the "beach" themed room- and the hair salon! In one corner of a wing, they even have an old-fashioned mirror/dressing table and vintage dresses next to it. Wow. Beyond the aesthetics, it was clear that the staff really cares, and that anyone whom I love would be well tended to at this place...I witnessed staffers calling everyone they saw by name, carefully tending to the sofas in the lounge area, checking on people in their rooms or in the common dining area or group activity area. Really, it was - overwhelming. Bob Carr and staff do an incredible job, it seems - if I get totally *out there* one day, for whatever reason, this is the kind of place I would want to be.

Unfortunately, my review is not good... My husband who was…read morediagnosed with dementia was moved from Emory University Hospital to the Madeline. When he arrived, he was heavily sedated. Was not awake. At the beginning of his stay at the Madeline, I was confronted by one of the Resident Care (RC) ladies that he was not able to walk or feed himself. I told her that I knew that since he was bedridden in the hospital for a month and on drugs for his agitation because of dementia. He was sleeping most of the time when we visited him. LaShira Israel, Resident Service Director of the Madeline, who came to the hospital to assess his case and determine if he would be a candidate for their facility, knew about his condition, and after review, accepted him into the Madeline. One of Madeline's resources and conditions we were happy about was physical therapy. Hoping he would be able to walk. He never got any. I had to order him a walker and wheelchair, which he never used. He slept a lot because of his aggressive behavior, so they medicated him. A psychological nurse said that she would prescribe a lessor dosage. During his stay, he had fallen and incurred a lesion on his elbow. The staff at the Madeline proceeded to put his mattress on the floor and taped up his elbow wound. Shortly after this, he was complaining of abdominal pain. On the evening of 7/19/2022, I approved him being transferred to the hospital for x-rays. I never got a call from the Madeline after that. It turned out that he was admitted into Emory Decatur Hospital (EDH) for treatment. Diagnosis, among other things, was sepsis. Not only sepsis, but ... Wound type MASD/YEAST on the left, right buttocks, gluteal cleft and scrotal area Surrounding skin denuded open area, redness/drainage, odor serosanguineous Wound type right, left heel Active dry yeast rash, sites: adipose tissue folds; groin Diagnosis besides sepsis, MRSA My husband was at the Madeline for 9 days. When doctors suggested Hospice, I notified the Madeline that he would not be back. He passed away on 8/4/2022. Since then, I've been trying to get a refund of the money I paid for the month of July. Actually the only month. He was only there for 9 days. They've not been very cooperative or compassionate and even charged me more because he did not die until 8/4...they claim they never received a written 30 day notice that he was leaving. I don't feel that I should be charged for the whole month, especially Level 3 care, when he never received it. Beware. UPDATE: 7/10/2023 I received a phone call from Aventine. She told me I received the $6k bill in error. Really??? So that was removed. They also removed the $380+ bill for the 4 days he was in hospice at another facility. She said that charge would be subtracted from the days he was not at Madeline. She kept saying it's in the contract, over and over. I told her he should never have been there in the 1st place. They promised he'd get the care he needed. There was nothing she could do about that. I'm sick and tired of dealing with this place.

My sister is a resident at Coventry Place, and she absolutely loves it! Atlanta Senior Advocates, a…read moresenior advisory and placement service, introduced and recommended me to the property. Not being from the area, I trusted them because they specialize in working with families in finding the best caregivers and vet each senior living facility to find the best fit. My 62-yr old sister is a military veteran and is independent but needs some assistance with her daily health rituals and consistent administering of her medication. Following six weeks of physical rehabilitation, living independently was no longer an option for her. We toured a couple of other properties around Atlanta, but she liked Coventry Place instantly. We met with the director Christina, who was warm, genuinely friendly, informative and super knowledgeable. I believe that Christina's compassion and understanding helped both my sister and I feel welcome and at ease. I also appreciated that wherever we went in the building, Christina always greeted residents and employees by name, and with a smile. It's amazing how much the little things mean when you are going through such a transition. The facility itself is wonderful--conveniently located, clean, bright and full of residents of various ages, so my sister doesn't feel like an "outsider" given her age. Large and inviting community rooms and exterior courtyard; library/game room; full kitchen and dining room; different chefs and DELICIOUS food! Staff here are great too. They are very responsive, accommodating, and really seem to care about the residents. There are plenty of activities offered and to choose from. Although I live out-of-town, I speak with my sister regularly and she has already made friends and is extremely happy living at Coventry Place. Respectfully, I am at peace that she is safe and given the proper care that she deserves. With so much negativity going on in the world, I'm so glad to share our positive experience and I highly recommend Coventry Place.
