    Warm and home-like with caring

    I placed my loved one here and I'm very pleased. It's a beautiful, well-appointed community with clean common areas and comfortable rooms. The staff are caring, knowledgeable, and responsive, leadership and family communication are strong, and activities and meals are engaging and high-quality. Overall it feels warm and home-like - I'd recommend it.

    About The Retreat at Sandy Springs

    The Retreat at Sandy Springs brings together many types of care under one roof, so residents don't have to move if their needs change, and the place is designed for active adults but also supports people as they need more help, offering everything from independent living and assisted living to memory care, skilled nursing, and even hospice care, plus adult day services, non-medical home care, and Medicare-certified home health care, with respite care stays for up to 60 days if someone just needs a short break or recovery time. The community's got studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom residences, all maintenance-free, with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, cable TV, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and safety features like a 24-hour emergency alert system, wheelchair access, and move-in coordination, plus housekeeping, linen services, meal prep (including special diets), and scheduled transportation to medical appointments.

    Residents can join in daily activities, scenic trips to parks or shows, shopping outings, exercise classes, Bingo, movies, Friday Happy Hour, and devotional services, and there's a fitness room, courtyard with a koi pond, a bistro, a library, and several community-sponsored programs made to bring people together and keep everyone as engaged as they're able, including some tailored to mild cognitive impairment. Memory care services, including the Signature Memory Care Neighborhood, offer extra security and support, with staff who help with medication, dressing, bathing, transfers, and daily tasks, and there's a 24-hour call system with supervision, a full-time licensed nurse, and nurses available 12-16 hours each day for clinical oversight and care planning.

    The community is pet-friendly and aims to feel more like a neighborhood, with residents helping each other, compassionate staff around at all hours, and different wellness activities to support body, mind, and spirit, all in a setting with beautifully landscaped grounds and comfortable, personalized spaces. Several care services-including assistance for people with non-ambulatory needs, dementia waivers for special cases, and programs for those with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia-are available, and care plans are tailored for each person, so needs are met day-to-day. The Retreat at Sandy Springs gets strong reviews from residents, with a community score of 9.3, and belongs to the Phoenix Senior Living network, which connects families to resources like Veterans Benefits and Financial Assistance.

    The whole idea behind The Retreat at Sandy Springs is to provide a safe and supportive environment where people can stay active, feel secure, and build real companionship with neighbors and caring associates, with plenty of options whether someone's looking for independent living, extra help, or memory care.
