Southwest Retirement Home Inc serves seniors in Gainesville, Florida, and holds a license as an assisted living facility with 12 beds, so it's a smaller, more personal setting where the staff get to know each resident. The facility provides long-term residential care and offers a mix of care types-including assisted living, independent living, skilled nursing, and support for those with Alzheimer's or other memory issues. There's a focus on making daily life comfortable and manageable, giving help with things like meals, medication, bathing, and dressing, and the staff stays on-site around the clock for peace of mind. Residents have access to specialized care units like North Florida Special Care Center and North Florida Retirement Village, with each area offering its own mix of skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and memory care services. The home has a warm, homelike environment, with cozy bedrooms and shared spaces-plus meals are prepared and laundry is handled, so day-to-day chores aren't a worry. Social activities and group events are common, making it easier for residents to build friendships, and there's extra help for folks who need hospice care or short-term respite. Services cover important basics such as incontinence care, house cleaning, and cable TV, and rooms come furnished so there's less to arrange. The facility also arranges in-home care, rehabilitation therapy, and support for families coping with dementia or Alzheimer's, and there are different options available for those wanting independent living or active retirement. Everything is designed to support both the independence and health of residents, while keeping a sense of family and dignity at the center of daily life.
Caring attentive family home, recommended
I placed my loved one at this small, family-style home and couldn't be happier. The staff-especially Jennifer-are wonderfully caring, attentive and go above and beyond; their individualized care, activities and kindness led to real health, weight and mood improvements. It's clean, cozy and loving (10 stars from me) and I highly recommend Southwest for someone who wants family-like treatment. Note: it's not fancy, has an unpaved driveway and is not wheelchair-accessible, so it may not suit every placement.
