When I moved my sister-in-law, Nancy, to Garden View, I was hoping she'd get a little better care than what she was getting at her Ann Arbor assisted living place. In her previous Assisted Living home, Nancy told me the aides would often take 15 minutes or more to answer her buzzer; whereas at Garden View, her amazing care aides are at her door within about 3 minutes' time! At the previous home, the aides seemed to be primarily recent high school or alternative school grads with few life experiences. Some just didn't seem to know how to relate to old people. However, at Garden View, even the young aides show a sense of maturity and common sense beyond their age, and they take pride in knowing how to care for their clients. They spend time chitchatting with Nancy and are respectful. They do their best to nudge Nancy to join in the activities and participate with other residents. Every staff member also greets me as a friend and can answer any question about Garden View's operation. Even the other residents act like helpful and friendly neighbors. Nancy has been happy with the decision to move to Garden View and my family is too. And the cost is half what it was in Ann Arbor!
Response from the owner: We're thrilled to hear about Nancy's positive experience at Gardenview. Providing attentive care and fostering a supportive environment is our priority. Thank you, Nancy for entrusting us with her well-being. Warmly, Alison
