Historic Roswell Place — Local services in Roswell

My mother was at Historic Roswell for over 5 years. She started off on the second floor in assisted living, then later she moved through various levels of care, ending up for the last few years in memory care. Therefore, I have extensive experience with all levels of care here.

I researched facilities all over Metro Atlanta prior to moving her to Historic Roswell, with a willingness to have her live anywhere in the Atlanta area and without any specific upper-level budget in mind. I chose Historic Roswell out of all the facilities in the Atlanta area (I probably visited over 20 widely dispersed facilities).

In retrospect, Historic Roswell was absolutely the right choice. This is an excellent facility.

Not one of these types of facilities is perfect, but the thing that puts Historic Roswell head and shoulders above the others is this: The people at Historic Roswell really and truly care about the residents, and this isn’t some kind of fake caring – it is absolutely genuine.

My mother wasn’t very outgoing. In fact, she was somewhat reclusive. But the staff at Historic Roswell went out of their way to get to know her and to look after her, and they really cared about how she was doing on a daily basis.

When her health stared to decline, they would check on her constantly, going far above and beyond what any family member could reasonably expect. People who were in administrative functions, who weren’t even technically caregivers, would check on her, talk to her, and help her. When I would arrive at the facility each day, I would see various Historic Roswell people throughout the facility (Clarice, Vonda, Saron and others) and they would each give me updates on how my mom was doing, they would tell me what they had been doing for her that day, etc.

This level of genuine compassion and caring, which is extremely hard to find, should be the primary thing you want in a facility like this. No reasonable person would ever trade this level of caring and compassion for a facility that is deficient in that regard but that might have (say) more modern toilets.

Although none of these types of facilities will give you perfection, Historic Roswell will give you true excellence in terms of caring and compassion, and if you are trying to understand why it is rated so highly on Google and...

Historic Roswell Place is absolutely the BEST assisted living in the Roswell/ East Cobb area. I looked a 7 different places in the area before I checked out this one for my George. He loves it here. The place is beautiful...just recently redecorated with comfy furniture, new carpet, freshly painted & 2 beautiful patios. The rooms are lovely with 2 big closets and lots of shelving in the bathroom. The kitchenette has a fridge, microwave and lots of cabinet and drawer space. The staff is amazing. They are so kind and caring and have taken such good care of George! The food is excellent & George is always telling me how much he enjoys it (and he is a picky eater). Arlene, the executive director is always responsive to any questions I may have & responds promptly. Before Covid-19, there were lots of parties, singers and activities - Christmas, Valentines Day, St. Patrick's Day, Memorial Day cook-outs, 4th of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving, etc that always included families. Now, they are just for the residents - and weekly there is bingo, trivia, movies, Happy Hour (George's favorite), Chef demos, ice cream socials, singers (outside), Book club, etc. Lisa, the amazing activities director, always has something planned for the residents. The location is perfect and residents feel like they are a part of the community of Roswell as there is always activity going on around them that they can watch...
