Gaines Park Senior Living

Gaines Park Senior Living is a blessing! We needed to find a different facility for my mom quickly as I did not want her to stay at the facility she was at. From the moment I walked in to Gaines Park, I knew it was going to be the right place for my mom. My expectations were high and I wanted a place that felt like home, where I knew she would be watched over and be safe. I wanted her caregivers to not only keep her clean and healthy, but also to know her as a person and care for her specific needs, even when dementia is hard. Gaines Park provided all of that and so much more. My family became a part of the Gaines Park family. The caregivers have love and passion for what they do and the director met my needs and listened to me when I needed her. Although my mom has passed, I still miss my Gaines Park family and I cannot thank them enough for all they did for my mom and my family. They will always hold a special place in my heart.

Gaines Park is exceptional! All of the staff members are always welcoming and greet you with a smile. It has a very comfortable home like atmosphere. For over two and a half years of visiting frequently (different days / different times) I truly could not ask for a better place for my loved one! House keeping is awesome! His room and bathroom is always clean, trash is collected, bed is made, floors swept and vacuumed. Laundry kept up. The kitchen staff is wonderful. They provide three well planned meals a day, which are nutritious and delicious (which I have enjoyed many time myself). Whenever there is something served that he does not like they are quick to provide a substitute. They truly care that the residents enjoy their meals. The activities Director is fabulous. She has daily activities (games, arts and craft’s, trivia etc) and scheduled monthly outings. She is always going around and encouraging the residents to participate. The Wellness Director and staff are exceptionally. She works very hard with the residents and their doctors to make sure that the residents medical records are up to date and that his daily medication‘s are correct and administered properly. Finally, Bonnie the Executive Director, is absolutely wonderful. She is always working hard to make sure that the families are kept informed. She is constantly working to schedule meetings with vendors that can help to educate and provide useful information for the care and services for the elderly. She is very knowledgeable in this industry. Again, I could not ask for a better place for my loved one! He is, and has always been treated with the upmost respect and care.

We discovered Gaines Park Senior Living at a critical moment, after my mother was unexpectedly discharged from another memory care facility unable to meet her increasing needs. A kind stranger—now an angel in my eyes—recommended Gaines Park, and I’m deeply grateful we found this exceptional community. From the moment I stepped inside, Gaines Park felt different. The warm, cozy atmosphere and sense of calm immediately put me at ease. Meeting the senior staff confirmed my instincts: they were genuine caregivers with a clear, compassionate plan for my mother’s care. Their thoughtful approach and personal dedication to their work assured me this was her new home. The staff’s longevity speaks volumes about Gaines Park’s leadership and quality of care. Many caregivers have been here for over 20 years, a stark contrast to the high turnover at our previous facility, where well-meaning but inexperienced staff struggled to connect with residents. At Gaines Park, the caregivers are empathetic, naturally gifted professionals who truly understand their residents’ needs. The memory care unit’s size and high staff-to-resident ratio allow for personalized, hands-on care. Residents are gently encouraged to engage in the common area rather than staying isolated in their rooms. A unique touch is the individual recliners in the common area—my mother loves hers! It’s a small but meaningful example of how Gaines Park prioritizes comfort and connection. The courtyard, filled with vibrant flowers, a pergola, and fluttering butterflies, is a serene haven. I cherish taking my mother there for quiet conversations, surrounded by morning breezes and birdsong. Thank you, Gaines Park, for providing my mother with a nurturing, loving home.
