Testimonials

Greetings Garden Villas North Administration.

I would like to take this time to pay attention to all the small and big details.

My heart is filled with joy and appreciation. I would like to take this time to thank each and every one of you.

The concierge stats is the first greeting that you receive when you walk into the front entrance.  I have never walked in the morning and Nancy has not greeted me or my family with a smile and a warm personality. The concierge department pays attention to all the big and small details when we call in for assistance or placing orders for our loved ones. I have never had any of those not met.

Patty from day one when my mother and I came there for our tour you were very pleasant and patient with my mother and I.   Stole our hearts from the very beginning. We have been through some ups and downs, medication changes, and challenges you and the team have remain nothing but professional and Gentle with my mother care. Thank you for all you do.

Versey, I don’t really know what her title is, but I see her being a great assistant to the nursing staff. all of the residents there you have been nothing but patient and kind with my mother treating her with respect and dignity.

Nursing staff, I know the beginning with my mom was kind of rough because she was very new and didn’t understand Her new environment it took a while for her to get acclimated into. I would love to say thank you Nurse and staff. You guys are truly a wonderful group of women Demonstrate professionalism pride about what you’re doing. you have managed to make my mom feel Accept it and cared for under your watch. Each one of you have a very special relationship with her rather it be her driving you crazy at times and laughing with her in the hall or at her apartment door when you’re passing her medication. I know it’s not easy, but she means well.

The maintenance guys I just want to say you guys are amazing. Whenever there’s an order place for my mom, you guys show up and you show off. I’ve been there and watch you interact with my mother. She is very comfortable with you guys coming into her apartment and providing service for her. You talk to her as though she were family And that makes me feel very comfortable. Thank you maintenance guys.

The kitchen staff oh my goodness you guys have really been amazing as well witnessing a lot of my moms changes and challenges due to medication changes. I would like to thank you for your patience and understanding and providing service for my mom.

Gina activities, your smile you’re warmth your professionalism. It’s amazing. My mom really talks about you when she interacts with you and she does participate in somebody activities when she’s willing to see you interacting with all the other residents there making each person feel very special and individualized although they’re working in a group. Thank you, Gina

Last but not least,    I would like to give a very special thanks to Nurse, Karen Jackson, for her outstanding patience and personal touch of care with my mother. Making her feel comfortable accepted, understood.  When I say pay  attention to those big and small details, there are no words for you. You listen, and you understand.

You make things happen. You have been extremely exceptional when it has come to the care for my mother. I know that you provide the service for each and every person that you come in contact with I have no doubt.

The communication between you myself, my mom‘s doctor and the pharmacist, the referrals the late night calls the early morning calls. All of the med changes all of the emotions emotional breakdowns you have paid attention to all. You have stepped in for me to exert my mother to get her mammogram when I couldn’t show up for her because of my crazy schedule. I think you for all those very precious moments.

To sum it all up no one can talk bad about this place to me. This is a special well kept secret here in North County. You all are truly amazing people that make this organization what it is.

Thank you,

“Ms. Thomas & All the Staff:

We had a marvelous time during our 3-day stay at the plush Garden Villas North. We attended several of the programs and enjoyed the apartment in which we stayed. We have already recommended this facility to several friends and will continue to sing your praises. Thank you and all of the courteous, up-beat staff.”

Dear Patty & the wonderful Delmar Staff,

We can’t thank you enough for the excellent care everyone gave our Dad over the last few years.  It’s a difficult process transitioning your father from a self-sufficient independent person into an assisted living environment.  The kindness and caring staff at Delmar made it easier!  You all became his surrogate family by looking after him in all ways; cooking, dining (Gloria), bathing, nursing, entertaining    (B-I-N-G-O) and caring for him.  We all felt confident when we visited him and walked out the door, he was left with a kind and caring staff!

Thank you all and have a great holiday and a healthy new year!

Gratefully,

Grace M.

Patty, thank you very much for what you do for the residents [of Garden Villas North] and their families and friends.
I saw how hard you work to keep them satisfied and happy.

Hi Patty,

Just wanted to thank you again for taking the time to give such a thorough tour of your facility today.  Peg was extremely impressed, and I think if Ben ever visits he, too will fall in love with The Villas.  As I told you having mom there is such a tremendous blessing to her, and to me knowing that she is happy.   What a difference living there has made in her life.

As promised, I also wanted to send the link to the Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) website so you would have more information about this important offering.  Typically I teach this class once a month at St. Louis Psychiatric Rehabilitation Center for our staff.  So, if you are ever interested in having your staff attend this training please let me know!

Thank you again for all you and your staff do,

Gwen

Patty,

My family and I greatly appreciate the many kind words about Mae and the expressions of sympathy from you and your staff.

Mae was very happy there; she felt safe and well-cared for and we thank you for that.

Patti,

I want to let you know about the terrific and compassionate staff you have.  Anytime you have a question they answer it, or need anything they retrieve it, whatever it is.  Receptionists Paula, Jennifer, Kathy and Cheva are so polite and always wear a smile under the mask for everyone, and an ear to listen to you.

Scott, Danny, James and Aaron also have smiles under their masks.  They respond to requests promptly and their work is excellent.  They say hello to residents when they see them and call them by name.  James is a very good driver and delivers service with a smile.

The dining room staff is another excellent group.  They bring you your correct order, ask if you need a drink refill, and if there is anything else you need.  They also assist residents with their chair if needed.  Some of the staff who have helped me are Patrick, Gloria, Tailia, Taylor, and Ahmya.  All are excellent and polite.  Glore has everything together very organized.  She keeps going with a smile and her laughter.  Stephanie works during the day but I have observed her interactions with residents and is also excellent.

Madonna is the housekeeper who cleans my room and is happy, peppy and does a great job.  We both like some of the same music so I find it and play it.  I look forward to Thursday mornings.

Now for Activity Therapy — oh my!  Jodi, Herschel and Gina are excellent and bring so much fun to the activities.  I enjoy all of them…BINGO, Karaoke, exercises, music, etc.

Patty and Lynn you are the captains of this operation and have done an excellent job choosing staff.  The atmosphere at Garden Villas North is one that other facilities should strive to have.  Thank you.  I am so happy we chose to come here.  I am sad that he isn’t here to enjoy it with me.

Thank you so much.

I just wanted to say how much we enjoyed the Easter Brunch at Garden Villas North, its always fantastic but I never remember to contact you concerning Gloria Arnold!! Whenever Gloria puts on a special occasion, I always feel like I’m in a 5 star restaurant!! Gloria’s mannerism is outstanding and so professional. I can’t complement on Gloria enough. I just wanted everyone to know how GREAT Gloria is.

Thank you,

Joanie
