It's been a great place for my dad. I believe for what he pays a month it may be one of the best values in the Nashville area.

Our family's experience

The apartment was a good size for the price. The staff was good but toward the end of my mother's time there, there was a lack of communication with the family and staff. She had an infestation of roaches that I told the director about but it was never eliminated and just got worse.

good place for a country-western fan

Staff is good, food not so much. Location is okay. Fairly close to medical, groceries, banks etc. The apartment size is manageable. But you really need to like country music to stay here. After all, it is Maybelle Carter... I would encourage people to tour the facility for more than an hour, and definitely try the dining room.

Nice community with areas of improvement.

I have mold throughout my apartment. Have pictures. I did not eat there, and I was working, not able to participate in the activities. Yes, I would recommend this community to other families if it did not have the mold.

Our experience

What we like the most about AVIVA Maybelle Carter is the Transportation and amenities. Yes, we would recommend this community to other families. My dad has only been there less than a month, but so far it has been a good experience for us.

There was a dangerously low lever of staff in memory care. My mother's. Inconvenience care was horrible. They admin staff dragged their feet on providing needed paperwork to move into new facility. We left after 2 months. I believe they may have gotten new management since we have left.

Rude Employees

[name removed] is extremely rude and I would NEVER send anyone I love and care about to them if they speak to people inquiring with a nasty and disrespectful attitude. Very disgusted and disappointed. If I could give 0 stars for friendliness and staff I would. Will be looking elsewhere and definitely steer everyone away from this location.

Proceed with extreme caution

The maintenance staff is incompetent and the facility is understaffed. My mom waited 45 minutes naked and wet on the floor after ringing for help. She developed pneumonia having just been released from the hospital with pneumonia. Her threshold remained a trip hazard until her PT raised an issue and it was fixed 3 days before she left, 25 days after moving in. She frequently went without food because of how they serve it. The hold bars in the showers and bathrooms are not ADA compliant and there are illegal outlets too close to sinks. It's an accident waiting to happen. I just hope no one else gets hurt. Oh, and they destroyed her wheelchair and didn't take accountability for it and then put her in a wheelchair that was too small for her further complicating the pneumonia. She ended up back in the hospital.

The facility has been upgraded within the last two years is very nice and clean. The staff has been very helpful with a lot of activities for the residents. The pricing at the facility is very reasonable.

I wish my mom was still there. After all the looking, I have to say that for the money, AVIVA Maybelle Carter was by far the best in the area.

What we didn't expect

The facility staff present to be warm and welcoming until you become a resident and they then become very antagonistic. This especially holds true for the director of program events. Oftentimes she makes residents uncomfortable and feel unwelcome to participate in activities. Charging fees for rides to doctors appointments and the like but failing to inform the resident about the fee until after she has taken them to their appointment. What happens if the resident doesn't have any extra money after paying the rising cost of their monthly rent. It's really sad they are treated in this manner.

Our experience-overall a nice community that could benefit with some minor improvements, would recommend

The staff are all friendly and helpful, and they're treat my mom well. Improvement wise, they only had one working elevator for months (no biggie for me, but made it very difficult for the residents), the food and dining style could use some improvement, and they could use a maintenance staff that's on call 7 days a week (my mom just got hot water back after 5 days). Overall, nice place, but all assisted living places need to be affordable for everyone-my mom is fortunate to be able to do so.

Elder care needs improvement!

I would not recommend as I have moved my Dad to another facility. They could improve on watching their residents, as my father was found almost a mile away from the center soaking wet in a ditch gone for 3 hours when they knew I was coming, better oversight, making sure the residents are clean and not walking around in soiled clothing and pants.

Facility great, food not so much

The staff is great overall. The problem is in the kitchen, with long wait times for meals and only mediocre food. Sometimes good, sometimes not. The problem is not with the wait staff, who are exceptional.

Recommended

My loved one is currently a resident at AVIVA Maybelle Carter and based on our experience, I would recommend this facility to others. They have taken good care of my loved one. They have a nice new dining room. The staff have been very friendly, they all seem to love my loved one. Communication with the family is not that great, it is hard to get them on the phone.

I have hospital/cafeteria type for over 6 months. They have about the same thing every week. They're very nice and helpful. Apartment sizes are average. You can't have too much stuff in there.
