Mount Vernon Towers - Atlanta, GA

While we did not ultimately decide to go with Sandy Springs, we very much so enjoyed our tour and thought it was a great establishment. The facility was clean and nicely kept, but we were just hoping for more of a homely feel that's all. Great option overall though!

I live here. Everyone is friendly and helpful. The flexibility in the meal plan is wonderful. Three meals a day are available but only some 10 to 18 are included in your monthly fee. An assisted living unit is attached so medical personnel are available in case of emergency but none is included as these are condos (sale or rent). Many individual services such as cleaning, laundry, home health are available but not included. Activities are frequent tho perhaps less extensive than some other retirement communities I checked out. Exercise room is limited but there are 1 or 2 exercise classes most days.
We are only 4 blocks from the North Fulton Senior Center is people are interested in other things. I do not plan to willingly move from here.

They were excellent but my husband just got too hard for them to handle. He had become very belligerent as he aged and the worse he got the harder it was for them to take care of him. When he first moved in he just loved it, it was a lovely place. The people were very nice and he had a nice bedroom, excellent food and activities, there was an aweful lot for him to do and at that time he was still able to do them but towards the end he needed to be in a place where he could get more care.
