Mothers experience

The food needs to be better and there's not enough activity to keep the residents engaged. A lot of the residents stay in their apartment after their meals.

Tranquility at Serene Gardens

Small facility with good caretaker to resident ratio. Plenty of in house activities for residents. Staff are very friendly and were attentive and empathetic when my father was going through end of life care. Worked very well with hospice staff.

Highly recommend

The facility is very clean, updated and great staff. They are engaged and very up to speed with my loved one whenever I checked in. Would highly recommend. Only thing lacking is communication. Identify a way for daily updates without a phone call or in person visit would be ideal.

The perfect place for mom

Serene Gardens is an outstanding home for my mom. The staff are so kind to her and are getting her involved with many activities. No more running around for hair appointments, Dr appointments, PT, Foot Dr. they all come to her room! My mom was on blood pressure medicine for years and now she is completely off of it because her stress levels are so low. I would recommend Serene Gardens to anyone that is looking for a home for their family member.

Would recommend

We wish we would have used your service when we were looking for independent living for our mom. It would have saved a lot of heartache and anxiety if we understood independent living, assisted living, and memory care. We would have gone with a facility that incorporated all 3 versus having to move our mom. 1. 4 - Some of the staff deserve 5, but others shouldn't have been there. My mom had dementia, so I was there a lot and saw the inconsistencies in staff. Again, MANY of the staff were wonderful, but they weren't there 24/7. 2. 5. Very clean! 3. 3 with the same response as question 1. 3. 5 4. 4. She also had hospice care, which helped a lot. [facility removed] and [facility removed] worked well together. On a side note, I strongly encourage families to use an outside hospice versus the one recommended by the facility. 5. 5 if you're referring to the in-house administrative staff. They always responded and helped. 6. 1. The food was bad! For what we paid, the food should have been better. 7. 5+5+5!!! Their new activities director, [name removed], was excellent!! She made every resident feel loved and did so much for them and families. 8. 3. I think those that own the facility make those that run it do more with less while they pocket the money. Again, I am happy to answer questions.

Mostly good

Very clean facility. Staff overall is very caring. Had a few issues with nurse Aids. I feel they could use more training when it comes to patient safety and care. Most Nurses Aids very pleasant and really cared for the residents. However, they pass meds and I do not feel that some have enough knowledge to do so. Some med errors/misinformation were made on behalf of my mother. There are no RN's/LPN's on staff after hours and on weekends. The administration/ director addressed issues as I brought to their attention. Food was good and plentiful. Because I am an an RN, I was there every day and my mom had a nurse from hospice, it worked for us. I would not recommend for patients that need advanced medical needs.

Serene Gardens a Peaceful Place

We moved our parents to Serene Gardens of Hartland about 3 months ago. They were living in an Independent Living facility before this. The administration at SG has been very accommodating to meeting our parents’ needs. They strive to listen and have addressed any concerns we’ve had. The meals are very tasty and nutritious. The faculty is clean and well taken care of. There does seem to be a lot of turn over of staff but I imagen this is normal in these facilities. The staff do call our parents by name and quickly learn their needs. Although they sometimes seem short-staffed, I’ve never felt it was unsafe. Our parents are well fed, clean and content. Overall, SG feels like home to our them and we especially like the small size of the facility.

Serene Gardens of Hartland review

They are short staffed and there have been some highs and lows. My mom has several issues they are learning. There are days I wish we could afford better care, but I know nobody can take care of her like I can so I have to learn to trust them. I have high standards. She likes her space. They don't clean to my standards but I'm ocd. The outside grounds need a little tlc. There are some staff that go above and beyond, they are amazing! Some that do what they have to. Right now with the staff shortage they are busy, I wish they could spend more one on one time. Some meals have been less desirable. It's not home cooking but she has options. The activity staff are so nice. I wish they had activities on the weekends or some evenings. It's a lot of money but I know for everything we get it's not in the world of assisted living.

My loved one is currently a resident at Serene Gardens of Hartland and everything has been great for her at this facility, so far. The cleanliness and friendliness are excellent. The staff, care services, meals and value for cost are excellent as well. I would recommend Serene Gardens of Hartland to others.

The compassion of the staff and how they help residents and family is comforting. Follow through on certain issues has not been stellar.

Review for Serene Gardens of Heartland

My only "complaints" are we didn't know that Bella Vita was sold until the day it happened. They are understaffed, but they are really trying to make it work. There have been issues with medication being given because it has run out. But, I have been told that they are switching pharmaceutical companies to resolve the issues. Meals were poor during the transition but are great now. I would like to see more activities or day trips or getting involved in the local senior citizen center.

Give It A Moment, As Time Goes On This Is The Best Place You Can Imagine for Your Loved One

This is a newer community. Bella Vita bills the pharmacy for my loved one's medications, and then the pharmacy bills me. The community caters to each resident's dietary needs and this is wonderful to see. This is a wonderful place. The community and staff follow guidelines and this is fabulous.
