PositiveExcellent facility
My brother has been a resident of the Memory Care for over a year. The Gardens of Carleton is always immaculate. You won’t find a more friendly, caring staff anywhere. All questions or concerns are immediately addressed. Gatherings always include families throughout the year. You can visit 24/7.

PositiveA Hidden Gem
The apartment size is really nice. I was able to arrange furniture to have a living room and bedroom. I have never seen such a clean facility. Never any odor like other facilities. They always have activities and events that include the family. The entire staff is wonderful. They are always attentive to their residents and receptive to any concerns or requests of family members. The food: Well, my brother gained 22 pound in just 6 months living there. We couldn't be happier with our choice. We recommend it to…

PositiveThe room was very nice and large. I really liked the whole place. Very clean and every one was very nice.

PositiveLovely & Loving Respite Care!
Mom was only there for two weeks respite care. I was out of town. So I am giving ratings according to what she had to say. I was very impressed with how lovely & clean the Gardens is. However, after her stay, she had complaints about the food being cold all the time. And that she stayed in her room most of the time. She did not tell me of any activities she did. Since she does have memory loss, I'm not sure how reliable her complaints are.
