Compassionate Care

Primary concerns are related to poor overall nutritional value of meals, lack of regard for dietary restrictions, and phone not being manned 24/7 for timely distribution of nighttime meds that are as needed. Staff at The Pavilion in Smyrna are considerate and compassionate of the care for those in their community. Their patience with the never-ending demands of each resident is a blessing to family members. My brother and I are confident our mother is cared for in a thoughtful manner and are pleased with this first, and hopefully only, experience with assisted living.

Great if your loved one is quite independent

Last year when my mother was there they had some staffing struggles which made my mother's time there more difficult that I had hoped. If your loved one is not QUITE independent, this may not be the best fit.

The Pavilion Senior Living

I would give them a 3. Waiting to get dad in memory care (waiting on the room to get finished). And he has walked off 3 times. Everything turned out good but I will be relieved when he gets in memory care. They have very nice people working there. But I feel there should be more staff. They have same staff to patient ratio as other places we checked out. I do feel all assisted living places should have more staff. They are working on getting dad into memory care but due to construction they just haven't been able to place him yet. Hopefully end of this week or next week he will get in. I do know they are watching him more closely so he won't walk off. I do feel they keep the rooms clean and do have things for residents to do. I just feel more staff is needed. And all the places we toured should have more staff.

Needs improvements

The four top adm staff rated as 2. Other staff marginal. Higher turnover in lower level employees. Newer hires trained by existing workers rather than management. Mealtimes sometime delayed as much as an hour. Inadequate number of employees to meet the need. Inadequate cleanliness - 3 UTI's in 5 months. Wet pants often due to untimeliness. Sometime staff not on duty at night as promised. Etc

Beautiful facility - Great staff

Great for all except I can't speak for activities....I know there are a lot of activities but [name removed] has aphasia and also can't see out of the right side of both eyes, and also cognitive issues....if he didn't have all that he would probably enjoy the activities. It's an absolutely facility and the staff is wonderful. Beautiful facility. They have been very good with communication with the family.

Finding a place for my father.

They were very helpful finding a place for my Dad within his budget. They called to make the initial appointments for me, I called the assisted living facilities and confirmed. I was able to visit all the places and make an informed decision.

Wonderful

The Pavilion has been such a great place for my dad! He was welcomed and the staff helped him transition and settle in quickly. They facilitated relationships with other residents and really care for of the residents. They have so many scheduled activities and events for my dad as well! I would definitely recommend the facility!!

Review for Pavilion Senior Living at Smyrna

I think the price is good compared to the others that I checked. I've always found the staff to be friendly, helpful & encouraging to the residents & family members. I visited the facility before my mom moved in, and I felt good about what I saw in the facility & the staff.

Has room for improvement

With the overall experience so far PT over medicated. The floor of the community is dirty, but the staff members are very helpful. When it comes to the care services they could use the training. The meals tend to be overcooked, but the activities are good. For the value for cost, it is good overall.

Pavilion Senior Living review

My mom is in their memory care unit and we have had a good experience so far the only problem is her getting her medicine. Based on the experience we have had so far with this community we would recommend Pavilion Senior Living to others.

Independent Living Sense for Assisted Living

For many reasons we really liked this community. First and foremost it is extremely close to my work so I can visit anytime. Secondly, it gives an apartment feel to the assisted living scenario so that the residents feel like they are still on their own but have help when needed. Mom is starting to settle in there she has gone out on the bus a few times and is slowly starting to participate in activities but what is good the staff is letting her do things in her own time no pressure. She likes the food, however, the portions are far too big.

Mom's Good Care

This is a nice community. The staff is caring and attentive. The menu is good and we both like the variety of the menu. They have a lot of activities that she is participating with the others. I like that she is making friends. Families might want to tour this community for the care of a loved one.
