Above average rating
The admission experience was one of the best. The admission staff went above and beyond to ensure the resident’s needs were met. On admission day all departments met with resident to orient facility policies. Medication could be dispensed in a more timely manner, facility cleanliness could be improved, but overall the service is above average compared to other facilities. Maintenance staff work hard and have completed requests in timely manner. Administration is receptive to questions and resident issues. Admission Coordinator was extremely helpful during admission process. She worked very hard to ensure the facility was prepared to meet resident requirements on day of admission.

overall pleased but facility needed updates
The staff there was fantastic and really seemed to care! We visited daily so there was no issue with how my mother-in-law was treated but truth be told the place is kind of run down. We would have moved her but she was comfortable there and did not want to move.

We feel comfortable having our loved one here
The staff have been absolutely wonderful, they are so caring. They go out of their way to do numerous things for us without charging us anything extra. We have been so pleased with everything so far. The assistant director [name removed] and director [name removed] has been wonderful to work with so far. The head nurse [name removed] has been on top of everything medically with our loved one and has shown genuine care. The meals and dining service is excellent. It is close in location which is great. We would highly recommend.

Disrespectful
My grandma was in this place. She is now passed on. I have been getting the run around about getting her stuff. It has been over a month and a half now. No calls back and the staff when they do give you different stories all the time. As a nurse I would never treat someone who just lost a love one like this. Absolutely disrespectful.

Really nice clean place with lots of caring staff. I was invited for a lunch tour, their food was prepared by an experienced chef who came and introduced himself to my family and I. Very impressed at the Southern Charm and the fact that is was the only place I could find without any deficiencies! Excellent place!

I showed up for an appointment about 10-15 early, waited 30 minutes before finally leaving. When I walked in, there was nobody sitting at the desk, residents were walking in and out the front door without anyone noticing. It wasn't as clean as it should have been. The TV was on loud, residents were just sitting around not doing much. Disappointing. Not a place I want my grandfather staying.

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:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and 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 you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Florida regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections 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 community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Florida regulations for Assisted Living.

A Place for Mom has scored The Gardens of Lake Alfred 9.2 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.   We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.   Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
