Community Reviews
My Dad Feels is Happy and Independent
reviewed on: 11/13/2013 by DaughterThey are wonderful. We haven't have any problems. My dad is a lot happier there. Every one is very nice. He likes that they don't treat like he is five years old and he really feels independent. My dad is a big complainer and the only thing that he complains about is the portion of his food. I really like Vicky and Judy, the women that run the front office. There aren't as many activities, which is a draw back. I wish they did more because it would prevent my dad from smoking so many cigarettes! Judy is the best greeter, if anyone is going to go and look they should ask for Judy. I still hug her every time I go and see my dad. They put him on the resident council committee so that he can feel like he has a say in what happens.
Moms home!
reviewed on: 09/27/2019 by Karl GreenMom has flourished during her stay at Garden Estates in Temple TX. The core staff are very helpful and friendly. GE has numerous activities available for the different levels of residents that allow them to be involved as much or little as they prefer. I feel extremely comfortable with moms safety and care at GE.
My reflections
reviewed on: 12/12/2013 by SusieI have met a whole bunch of wonderful people here-- the staff, the crew and the residents. The housekeeping crew keep the place as clean as is possible. The kitchen staff really has a difficult task but they manage to get it done-- and people have choices of food.
Happy Mother, Happy family!
reviewed on: 09/30/2019 by Happy daughterGarden Estates is a lovely assisted living home. Bright, clean and fresh smelling with smiling, caring management, concierges and residents! Has a wonderful hotel feel with large open areas beautifully decorated. Beautiful patios and grills. Delicious three meals a day and guests are welcome to dine. There is a warm family feeling, transportation to local shopping and dining out is also available. Many fun activities like ice cream socials and happy hour. My mother is truly enjoying this relaxing assisted life style.
It is a warm, cheerful place
reviewed on: 04/17/2014 by D. L.When my mom & stepdad began searching for assisted living, they heard good things about Garden Estates of Temple from friends who had relatives in this facility. So they toured it, and later brought some of us kids to see it as well. We were impressed with what we saw and heard, so our parents got on the waiting list. They have lived here in assisted living for over a year now. They enjoy the three meals a day, weekly housekeeping and other amenities of assisted living. It is close to their former neighborhood so friends can still visit them, and it's close to the hospitals that they have gone to for years. They have made friends here, and it's a cheerful place for relatives and friends to visit. The staff is wonderful, and each takes their job seriously. They leave no doubt in my mind that my parents and all the residents are given the best of care. The nurses and aides are caring, the dining room staff and chef are top-notch, housekeeping and maintenance do a super job, and the adminstrative staff are always ready to answer questions and help in any way. I would recommend Garden Estates of Temple to anyone needing assisted living. It is a warm, cheerful place.
