Gardens of Scioto

My husband and I this fall realized that my mother-in-law and stepdad needed much more help after living independently (both for over 90 years). We put in many hours looking for the right place and for one that was affordable. We could not be more happy with the Gardens of Scioto Assisted Living. The main reason is the quality care they have received. That starts with the Community Relations Manager, Debbie Ayers who is warm, cheerful, and knowledgeable. But it does not end there. The nurses, the aids and everybody working there are friendly and competent. The residents are genuinely happy not only because the staff pays attention to their needs, but also because it is an up beat, positive place.

I started working here as a Resident Assistant in May of 2018. Immediately I was welcomed by everyone and quickly made friends with my coworkers. This by far is the nicest facility I've ever been in and I enjoy coming to work everyday. Over my time here, I quickly bonded with my residents and developed relationships with them. Although my job may get a little hard sometimes, the residents and staff make everything better. If you're looking for a new job, I would definitely recommend applying. And if you're looking for somewhere for your family member, the Gardens of Scioto is the place to call home and we'd all be happy to take wonderful care of them. (:

I found the Gardens of Scioto through 'A Place for Mom' on the internet. We were in a difficult situation with my aunt and needed to find housing and care immediately. Their staff was absolutely amazing. I don't live in Columbus and was trying to handle all of this from out-of-town and very quickly. Deb, their Community Relations Manager, was a wealth of information and helped me think 'outside the box' on my options. We were able to locate my aunt there comfortably in a respite apartment until things fell into place to make the move officially. The staff is friendly, caring, and attentive. My aunt receives an abundance of attention. The facility, itself, is beautiful. When I ate dinner with my aunt one night, the kitchen staff even came out to say 'hi,' and to let my aunt know that even they were keeping an eye on how much she ate of their food. :) I have been in facilities where the care is lacking and staff difficult to locate when needed. This is not the case here. We are very satisfied.

My mom has been in a couple different places. She is 94 and cannot live on her own. With the experience we have had with the other two places, My sister and I feel we have hit the jackpot with Garden of Scioto. If you are looking for a place for a loved one...you must check out Garden of Scioto, you will be pleasantly surprised and very pleased with the staff and the care your loved one will be given. The only thing we would have changed is, we would have brought mom here first.

I lived in Ohio for 76 years and raised my family here. When my wife became ill I chose to move closer to my daughter in South Carolina to get the help I needed for my wife. After loosing my wife within a year of that move to South Carolina, I decided it was best to return to Ohio to be with my children, grandchildren, and friends. It's also been good to get back to my church, Heritage Free Will Baptist Church.I initially arrived at the Gardens of Scioto (Assisted Living Community) until I could decide what the best living arrangement would be for me. I enjoyed being there for the most part. I liked the fact that I could come and go as I pleased. The food was also quite good!What's great about this place is that it is a full health care campus, so since I did not need assisted, I was able to move into their Villa (Independent Living). It's good peace of mind to know that if I do need further medical attention It's available to me right here on the campus.
