Emory Ridge

I do not think I was prepared for the level of patient need I saw at the facility. I was aware of it being a memory care facility, but the level of patients was well below my expectations. I do believe that this was a misconception on my part and not reflective of the care anyone was receiving. My expectation was of more interaction between staff and residents and between individual residents. What I saw was staff effort and virtually no response from residents. I was not prepared for that. My belief is that my si…

Emory Ridge is a very nice and presents a resident friendly environment. The facilities were clean and well-maintained. The apartments are roomy and spacious.

When behavioral issues arose, we were told the facility did not specialize in dementia medications and needed to be referred out.

Emory Ridge review

For the most part staff has been great, like most places that care for people they are understaffed. It's not their fault and they do their best. The place is clean, no complaints about the food from my brother and they have plenty of activities and take trips at least two or three times a month.

Safe and secure

The staff are professional and caring. The only issues we've had have been with the losing of glasses and not always being in his own clothes. (I know these things are to be expected, but they are the only reasons for not giving a 5.0).

Very clean facility with updated decor and many opportunities for activities and engagement regarding lifelong hobbies and interests.
