Testimonials
“I cannot say enough about the wonderful staff at Southside Gardens Assisted Living. Within hours the staff calmed the fears of my mother. She felt safe, secure and very loved. They care about her as an individual and strive to make her days rich and full of living. Thank You!”
“I love that the staff at Southside Gardens Assisted Living are so sweet to mom. Every aide is careful with her and takes good care of her. They watch out for her and see to her needs. I am always kept informed of what goes on with her and I am called in the event of an issue that needs to be addressed quickly. I am relieved that mom is in good hands.”
“My mom LOVES Southside Gardens. She had a chance to move back to her hometown but, chose to stay at SSG. I think she considers SSG her home. The staff takes very good care of her.”
“When mom’s memory issues made it clear that she could no longer live alone, I assumed that we would have no choice but go to a facility that advertises an emphasis on those issues. After two years, SSG-AL continues to fully meet all of her needs. Her apartment allows her independence and privacy -- yet she can walk out into the lobby at any time to be with other residents, participate in planned activities, listen to music or sit outside and admire the gardens. The staff is wonderful -- they show genuine care for all of the residents and appear to really enjoy their work. The facility is always clean and well-maintained. My mother is very happy here and now considers it her home.”
