My dad was a resident here for about 10 years. He suffered from Parkinson's. During his time…read morehere, he went from the unassisted level, to the assisted level to the full care level. I must have visited this facility at least 3 times a week for a decade! I live nearby so it was convenient to walk there with my kids and visit my dad and the other elderly residents. We got to know many of the folks there, all the nurses and nuns as well. The front desk receptionist was always courteous and welcoming, the foyer is spacious and simply decorated. This place always felt more like an apartment building than a "nursing home." It was always fresh, bright, and clean. The floors were always so shiny and immaculate. We checked in and took the elevator to my dad's room. The living spaces there were always neat and organized, with laundry services provided. Residents can make their rooms as personalized as they'd like. We saw some lovely, well-appointed living rooms and bedrooms. The common areas are pristine and comfortable. We enjoyed seeing the other seniors there and took pleasure reading to them, helping with meals in the communal dining room, and even conducting Bible studies! The kitchenette has a couple tables, snacks and drinks for the residents. There's also a well stocked library and games. The nuns of the Little Sisters that run the facility provide spiritual support and many activities to keep the folks there encouraged and entertained when appropriate. They also have yard sales and festivals throughout the year. The nursing care was amazing and we felt confident in the safety and healthcare my father received. He was cared for in a dignified and gentle manner as he went through the stages of needed care. The staff made his adjustments for further medical assistance seamlessly. They certainly made a difficult situation much more easy to handle. Our minds were set at ease knowing my dad was being treated with compassion and love. Beautiful grounds surround the buildings, where residents can talks walks, pause for prayer and meditation and just enjoy being outside with nature. I'm so thankful for the extraordinary care my dad was given by the incredible people here. We couldn't have chosen a better home for him.

So ONCE AGAIN, I am posting because this has been an on-and-off issue. Why was my auntie found…read morewith 2 depends, one from overnight that has a pad in it, and then a new pad on top of the old pad? She has the Demends stocked. But in the morning, she should have been changed. This is a recipe for ANOTHER UTI. I am frustrated with the inconsistency of care for this my auntie.

In searching for an assisted living facility the task was difficult and stressful. I had my mind…read moreset on one place due to its location and reputation, but felt I owed it to my loved one to do my due diligence and visit all of the places close by. When I went to Southerland Place and toured the facility I knew this was the place. Their executive director, Sam Stoddard, took time to walk down the hall to say hello and make sure someone was helping me. Later as I talked with him, I could tell he was a man of integrity and cared about his residents. Then I met Courtney, their sales manager, she has a great personality and knew all of the residents by name. As I toured, I tried to watch how the staff interacted with the residents and was impressed with love they showed to each individual. We had lunch with the managing staff and really enjoyed the food and company. They even let the residents help with planning the menu as the chef came out during lunch to discuss options for the next week. Larry and Rena deal with the assessment and all nursing type stuff. They listened and treated my loved one with respect. Nancy, the business manager, has been a great help with getting the proper paperwork needed for long term care insurance. Her door is always open, if you have any questions. When we moved in Sam and Ronnie helped with the move. Ronnie is the manager of maintenance and is quick to help you with any request you may have. It has been 2 months since my loved one moved in and they love the place. The family has seen a big improvement in our loved one mental and physical state. The activities are great! They have had a Senior Prom, Bingo, Card games and other things to stimulate the minds of their residence. At lunch the staff came in and provided entertainment by hula hooping and even Sam got in there and gave it try. My loved one laughed and still gets a chuckle when thinking about it. One last thing that has impressed me is when I see Courtney she always ask how we are liking the place and if there is anything that the Southerland Place can do to make it a better place. I like this because it shows that they are always trying to improve the place. If you are in need of an assisted living facility I strongly recommend The Southerland Place.

Camellia building has two elevators, one of which has not been functional for years, and the other…read moregoes out on the regular. There are many residents who have lived there for years (moved in when it was a fine establishment with restaurants, doctor's offices, grocery, church - none of which exist now) who are elderly or handicapped and are often trapped in or unable to get to their apartment. Also, the air conditioning goes out on the regulator and the residents are sweltering. Bad plumbing, bed bugs, and abhorrent management. I wouldn't board my dog in this dump! wish there was a 0 star.

DO NOT let your loved ones live here! In the last two years, this senior living community has…read morewoefully declined! It has experienced suicide, murder, rape, assaults, and robberies! There have been meth labs operating in the buildings. Ambulances and fire trucks are routinely on site daily. Bodies have been found a month or more after expiring. It is even under investigation for a prostitution ring! You can't make this stuff up! Management laughably bills it as a luxury community. Don't be fooled. An elevator in one of the buildings has been down for over a year. The common area floors are never cleaned. Maintenance issues go ignored. AND they have bed bugs and roaches! Most of the residents are very nice, gentle people, but there was a wave of undesirables moving in that caused a massive decline in morale, and no one cares about their community anymore. A resident purposely set a fire. Another barricaded himself in his apartment and busted out his picture window. Everyone is moving out in droves because of the drama. And trauma! The only thing it has going for it is the robust activities program that surprisingly remains intact from its previous administration, with regular bands that come to play, Bingo three times a week, exercise classes, dances and field trips. Not enough to save what used to be a very nice community. Very sad place for seniors near the end of their lives who have no support to have to endure.
