FANTASTIC!!!!!

Can’t say enough! We looked at many places for our mom. The first moment we stepped into Serenity Gardens, we knew this was the place. Beautifully located under the trees in Friendswood, you instantly feel the love and care they spend keeping it nice. Upon arrival, we were greeted by [name removed], the Director, and one of the residents. Both a joy to talk to. The care you get in this smaller version of memory care will not be beat! They truly involve the family and the workers in everything (if you want to!). I f

Critical

Better than average

Most of the caregivers here show compassion and care for the residents. Like any memory care facility, they are short staffed, especially at night, when 2 attendents are expected to manage 16 memory care residents, which do not sleep well and seems to be a wild scene. I must admit that the night staff does try to attend to all of the late night residents wild rides responsibly, and tip my hat to them. I believe that management at this facility is non responsive to patient's needs, and is expert at explaining why no

Would Recommend It

It's a place for Alzheimer's/dementia, and sometimes I don't know if what my loved one tells me is accurate. Sometimes the things she says just don't jive with what I've observed. The food looks and smells good. The one thing I was able to try was wonderful. I don't hear any complaints from her about the food, and I know she wouldn't eat it and would definitely let me know about it if it wasn't good. They're getting a little more lenient with Covid easing up. You still wear your masks, but she can now go on outings

Serentiy Gardens Works Hard to Keep Their Residents Happy and Health

The atmosphere is positive at Serenity Garden. As small as the staff is they work hard. The room was great for our loved one. The food was good. I initially saw board games, and I didn't see them on return visits. The community did try to get the residents involved in different exercise

I don't know what I would have done without Serenity Gardens

This is a small community and the one on one attention was wonderful for my mom. This community felt like home, and the director was amazing. He even visited mom in the hospital. I would definitely recommend this facility to others.

my review of Serenity Garden

this community is very friendly and the staff seems very caring but they do seem to be somewhat inexperienced with dealing with the medical care of the residence. I would like to see more effort with the activities they provide during covid. The communication could better and I would like to hear about what's going in the facility. There is no care meeting on a regular basis to get updates on my loved one and I think that should something that done.
