Peaceful Feeling

My mother recently (and somewhat reluctantly) moved here as a Respite resident. She enjoyed herself so much that she wanted to make it permanent. The facility has lots to do, if you choose, and is also a peaceful environment. I’m so pleased that they take such good care of her needs which gives me a tremendous sense of peace.

Safety when someone falls

My mom was sitting on her bed and her feet were sliding and would not stop her from falling to her bottom. She bunched the button for someone to help her and it took 15 mins to get there. What if she had hit her head and poured blood? What would 15 mins look like on your site? It does not look good. I thought this place had 24/7 help and the button they use on them works and makes sure you hear them first. I really thought they would have been there within 5 mins. That's an emergency.

My mom has been in Dogwood since [date removed]. Her bed sheets haven't been changed in 2 weeks. Her clothing ,which includes bed pads( which are wet) have been washed once. This isn't except able due to tge amount they charge per month and what was promised us when we excepted the apartment.

Review for Dogwood Forest of Grayson

Dogwood Forest was wonderful. Recommendations from others, visiting and having residents tell us how great it was, the time the staff took to answer all of our questions and address some concerns about our mother's needs and quirks, our ability to visit any time even at night.

Staff Does The Bare Minimum

They very difficult to deal with my father is currently in the hospital with pneumonia because they allowed him to get dehydrated. They do not provide enough fluids to the patients. I feel really bad for the patients that do not have a family member that can take care of them. I would not recommend anybody.

Dogwood Forest of Grayson

I am not pleased with all the policies and procedures that they failed to disclose upfront. There also is a lack of communication between staff members and from the staff to the family. Their brochures and new resident packets don't cover a lot of my questions. They should have better written paperwork to disclose policies and procedures. Dad has been sick with high fevers twice and they have not provided him with meds to alleviate the fevers. I'm paying a lot of money because I thought I would not have to worry about dad. But I am worried more about his care that I was when he was living at home.

Kind, professional, respectful, happy place to live!

Very pretty, clean, decorated like a nice hotel, tons of activities. My mom has a corner balcony with tons of her plants and room for family too. Staff is very friendly and kind to mom, and rooms have full size refrigerators in the kitchen area. The food is great with a big variety. Dogwood Forest is terrific in every way!

Dogwood Forest of Grayson review

My husband ended up at Dogwood Forest in Grayson. It was expensive but I would give it a 10+. The food is so important to the residents, the high light of their day. They have a 'real' chef there and I ate many meals there myself. So number one is meals. They also had awesome entertainment. Sometimes it was the staff other times outside people. They go above and beyond the standards. You should check it out yourself.

Review for Dogwood Forest of Grayson

Very inclusive community and they encourage residents to meet and mingle with others there. They honestly have treated my mom like she is their mom. They keep the facility top notch and respond quickly to any and all requests. Great job of also keeping me and my family abreast of everything going on with our mom. First impression of the facility and how more than one representative of the facility came in to meet us and answer any questions. They have excellent follow up with you and are not pushy and say you need to make a decision by this date to lock in a rate.

Review for Dogwood Forest of Grayson

It's been a great experience. Staff is attentive to my mother's changing needs. They know her by name and interact with her like a beloved family member. The personalized care sets it apart. The home she was previously at felt like a business. This is family. Bonus the food is good and they encourage family visits.

Best Assisted Living!

My Mom moved to Dogwood Forest from another community in the area. She has been at Dogwood Forest for over a year and she is thriving! What we noticed most about Dogwood Forest and the community she came from was the staff! Mom has the same caregivers and housekeepers since she moved in. (That was not the case at her last community). Mom loves the food. There are so many options and they are able to meet all her preferences and diet restrictions. She is always busy with a robust activity calendar. The place is very clean and has no smells. She loves sitting outside in the beautiful courtyard. When I go to bed at night, I smile know how well Mom is being taken care of.

Top Notch Assisted Living

We have a friend from church who lives at Dogwood Forest. We visit every week after church. We usually have lunch or just visit in the beautiful courtyard. Everyone is so friendly, the staff have been there forever and the food is always so good. The community is clean and the residents look well taken care of! 10 out of 10!

Great Place for Mom - She loves Dogwood

Dogwood is a great place for your mom or dad. The facility is top of the line and the entire staff are so nice, helpful and seem to genuinely care about the residents well being. They have all kinds of activities going on for the residents to stay busy and active. My mom has made new friends there and they socialize together all the time. Pet friendly atmosphere so my moms cat (name removed) was able to stay with her which really helped in the transition to Dogwood. They are not the cheapest but the value of what they do for the residents and family members is well worth every penny! Dogwood management team stays on top of everything and always there when you need them. They keep the facility in great condition and don't nickel and dime you on everything! If I had to go into an assisted living environment, I would pray to go to Dogwood Forest. Top notch 10 stars for me.

Finally found the best fit for mom

I would give Dogwood Forest of Grayson higher than 5 stars if I could. The staff has gone out of their way to be both efficient and helpful. They have done a great job helping my mom to get acclimated. One of the things she keeps saying over and over again is that they call her by her first name and she really appreciates that. They know all of the residents by name and really get to know them. The staff have been great with communication with the family, they have called us for a variety of different things. I would highly recommend the facility to others.

Tips for evaluating your community options.

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Know Georgia’s regulations for memory care. Each state has its own laws and inspection processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the communities you’re considering. Learn more about Georgia’s regulations for memory care and download the Guide to Senior Living Licensure and Inspection Reports.

  • Tour the location. Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and it helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services. Before committing, make sure that the community offers all the services your loved one needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.
