Garden Place Waterloo

I rarely leave reviews for anything unless I truly feel like a spotlight needs put on it. My father in law had a stroke and needed some extra therapy and someone to look in on him several times a day until he could get stronger. We chose to do respite care at Garden Place Waterloo. Moving him in was a hard decision but we soon realized that it was one of the best decisions that we have ever made. From the moment you walk in it has a home feel with a splash of resort living. There is always something happening or a quiet place to sit and visit. EmpowerMe Wellness gave the most amazing therapy to him and made him stronger than before. I saw staff hugging residents, amazing smells from the kitchen and a friendly hello from every staff member that I passed. The building was clean and smelled fresh. The rooms are spacious and clean. It was comforting to see that Dad was loved and well taken care of. Leha made move in a breeze, and kept in contact with anything we needed to know between visits. I cannot think of any way that our time there could have been better. If you are looking for a place that you can trust with your loved one, Garden Place Waterloo is it.

Garden Place, Waterloo, has been a great experience since our first tour with Jessica, to meeting the directors, Leah and Barb. They and the amazing staff made my parent's transition effortless and comfortable. The staff have always treated them like new neighbors more than residents while offering exceptional care and even sitting down to enjoy a meal with them or bringing a peach cobbler for their birthday. As their health began to decline, everyone there just continued to offer more assistance as needed. If you are looking for an assisted living facility we cannot recommend Garden place more. The excellent food and daily scheduled activities are great for anyone, and if more assistance is needed, they offer the best care that can be imagined. Thank you Garden Place.

My parents have enjoyed living at Garden Place for over a year. I have seen firsthand how the staff invests in the residents' lives and cares for their needs, big and small. When my mom was on hospice and passed away in May, the staff was so supportive. My stepdad wanted to continue living at Garden Place because of the care and community. I'm beyond grateful.

My mother has been a resident at Garden Place in Waterloo Il for over a year now and the transformation in her quality of life has been remarkable! The staff go above and beyond to ensure each resident feels valued, respected and safe. The facility is immaculate and beautifully maintained. From arts and crafts, cooking, music therapy to group outings.....there is always something to look forward to for the residents. This is not just a place to live.....its a place to thrive and I am endlessly grateful to all for the peace of mind this has given our mother and our entire family!

My grandmother has lived here just shy of 2 years and I truly can't say enough good things about this facility. The facility is welcoming, clean, and the staff is amazing. It brings my family and myself great peace of mind knowing she's in such good hands!
