Top notch

I have prayed that this would be a good facility for my sister’s memory care, and God answered my prayers. In the last nine months, my sister has declined, I would say, 90%. It is so sad, but I do believe she is in a good place now and is being taken good care of. The price at Shady Gardens is affordable. The staff is excellent, and as you know, each of us who has a loved one in a memory care facility is concerned about their overall care.

Review for Shelby Garden Place

I'd give 5 stars. Room size is a little small but perfect for the need. Quality of care is excellent. PT/OT on site. Low to zero staff turnover in about 10 months. Each staff member seems to know each resident and their family. Plenty of activities and mostly good food (I'm just too choosy). Each resident is serve meals in a nice dining area as if it were a restaurant. Very clean facility. Pipes froze on my mother's wing last December. Staff worked hard to avoid moving residents to another facility while demolitio

Review for Shelby Garden Place

Food does not appear to be very good but adequate. I suppose. They should probably invest in Technology that reduces unfavorable odors. They are friendly for the most part and seem to do a decent job.

The moment I walked in someone was there to greet me. [removed name] was friendly and answered all my questions. During the tour I noticed that the place is clean and organized. The dining rooms are nice and the food is delicious. I recommend anyone looking for assisted living for themselves or loved ones to tour SG to see what they have to offer.

Review for Shelby Garden Place

The staff there are wonderful. They are very helpful, supportive and friendly. My mom loves her space and so do my sister and I. It's just the right amount of space for her. We know that she's safe but my mom still feels like she has some independence. There are a variety of activities daily for my mom to participate in and she participates in them regularly and has made new friends and become social again. My mom likes that she has choices for each meal and can choose what she likes to eat. It has been a great exp
