I visited this facility

My brother and his wife will be moving into Arabella of Athens. It was very pleasant, open, and airy. All the staff seemed very nice. They had a chef on duty that cooks meals. They have three different areas. One area is independent living, in which you have a place for your car and a door that leads out from a little apartment. Then they have the assisted living. It also has a little apartment, but it's inside. You can't go outside or anything, and it has no garage. I think if you wanted a garage, you co…

Memory Care Experience

My husband moved into Arabella Memory Care about 3 weeks ago. Everything went as well as it could under the circumstances. I was so looking forward to him being able to use all of the activities in the facility. But Dreaded Covid had moved in and they had to be restricted to the room as much as possible and meals were taken in the room. Many of the staff were out with covid and the staff was short handed, but they managed to take care of the residents and I was impressed. Since the move in after a couple of weeks, …

I am a friend or relative of a current/past resident

My mom has moved to Arabella of Athens. We chose them because they have memory care. There are not a lot of choices in memory care, and they are an excellent option. The facility is beautiful and they are professional, we feel blessed to have found them. They're working with us, and they do have a desire to make us happy. The food has been excellent. We've only been there recently, but so far, we're very pleased. They do have some activities in the memory care unit that is appropriate for my mother. …

Our Experience

It's sufficient for my family member's needs. It's adequate, but I don't think it's the best around. I think the care needs to be improved on. They don't seem very giving to the residents.
