Comfortable living with nice gardens to walk or sit.
What's the biggest advantage of Madonna Gardens memory care is that is all on one level and the rooms are studio. A one bedroom apartment would be too much for someone to navigate and get lost in. Madonna Gardens is shorthanded on caregivers at present.

Madonna Gardens was essential in the transition from home to memory care for my wife and me
Madonna Gardens was like a second home for my wife. She always said she loved it there. Everyone is so loving and caring . Everyone went out of their way to make sure she was happy in her journey.

Our family's experience
they don't have a nurse and they need a vehicle. There as been a lot of staff turnover so I don't really know the person in charge. Everyone was very helpful when we were looking to move there

The staff, every single one of them, are caring, dedicated, mindful, wonderful individuals. They all know each community member. The facility is kept extremely clean and safe. The food is great. I missed being there after my mom passed.

A total Gem
Upon every arrival our welcomes are always greeted grandly by upbeat happy smiling friendly staff members. Our impression is the home is greatly & pridefully cared for...smells amazing, looks amazing... nothing or anyone out of place! So Professionally Run! Glad my parents call Madonna Home! Outstanding Staff! Always happy, loving, joyful, supportive, over & beyond personal treatment. Employees treat all residents & each other with enduring kindness (feels like family). Personalized care and attention. Accommodating likes, dislikes and comfort. Staff, bending down on knees to look into residents eyes, listening intentionally, communicating in ways that deeply touch hearts.l Madonna Staff include all residents gently encouraging participation. Impressive planned daily activities. Activity Directors top notch. Staff members never miss a beat always working so hard taking pride in all they do. You can tell & often share they all love being apart of the Madonna Family...

Overall nice facility.
There has been so much staff turnover lately. The new activity person is trying to do different things but some of them are too hard for alot of the residents. She is new so she's learning. My mother in law is happy with her surroundings and the staff. It's a small facility and for people who have memory issues or a physical disability, it's easy to get around. I would recommend Madonna Gardens to others.

The entire staff know each individual. They are extremely attentive.
I wish I could have convinced my mom to move here a year ago. She would have been much happier, with all the staff attention, activities, and meeting new people. It would have made her life so much more enriched at the end of life experience. I cry every day because I miss my mom so much. My tiny mom, such a strong, independent, beautiful woman.

Our Experience
My dad has been a resident at Madonna Gardens for almost 3 years. We just celebrated his 104th Birthday. He's very happy and, we feel, well cared for. The new manager is very helpful. However, the carpet in his room could be cleaned.

Definitely recommended
My loved one is currently a resident at Madonna Gardens Assisted Living and Memory Care. The staff have always been very friendly and helpful. [Name removed] pays attention to my loved one's medical supplies and lets me know immediately if something runs low or if anything is needed for her care. The move in process was easy and the staff assisted when needed. My loved one's room is always kept clean and organized. My only suggestion would be more attention to the meals regarding diabetic diets/needs. Otherwise, the food is good. I would definitely recommend Madonna Gardens Assisted Living and Memory Care to others to assist in the care of their loved ones.

A homey place
My dad has been a resident at Madonna Gardens Assisted Living and Memory Care for a year and a half. He is well taken care of. The food is okay, he says. The price is fair. Everything at this facility is clean. They have a Newsletter for those who are not close by. It's a homey place, I call it a hotel.

Madonna Gardens Assisted Living review
My mother in law is doing very well there. She says all the people there are so nice. The room is very comfortable and since it is a smaller facility. She gets around pretty well. With her dementia, it is nice for her to move around without getting lost. The outside garden areas are beautiful and she loves to walk around outside.

My review of Madonna Gardens Assisted Living & Memory Care ( Carefield Living )
Looking at other facilities as well as the Madonna, they did not have the largest rooms available, but the place was extremely clean and the staff members have all been very very friendly towards our family.

Highly recommend
We chose Madonna Gardens because this was the best value for the money and we thought it would be the best fit for him and it is close to our house. The staff members are good with communication, they are always calling to keep me informed of what is going on. I would highly recommend them and already have.

Horrible
My Mom and myself also had thing’s stolen from her room while she lived there. Keep watch of your jewelry and any nice sunglasses to say the least.

Dismal
We drove by Madonna Gardens for my loved one, but we didn't go in. Even from the outside, it just looked so dismal to me. I knew without even touring that this was not the place for my loved one to be, so we continued our search.

Exceptional!
My mom has been a resident at Madonna Manor for about five weeks. If you are looking for a great home for your loved one, Madonna Manor is the place! It gives me such peace and reassurance when my mom tells me, "I love living here... the staff are wonderful and caring... I feel safe...this is my home." These are just some of the statements she has made. I visit my mom about four to five times per week, so I have met many of the staff that work at Madonna Manor. They are kind, caring, friendly and professional and seem to really enjoy their jobs. [Removed] is the Director. He is easy going and easy to talk to. He truly cares about each resident and insures they are comfortable and enjoying their stay. I am truly thankful for finding Madonna Manor. Great place!!!

Exceptional Care
Madonna Manor provides a quiet and restful atmosphere to its residents. The staff is professional and caring while seeing to the needs of each individual resident. My mom has only been there a couple of weeks and so far they're doing a great job!
