We recently had to make the difficult decision to move my dad to memory care. We were working with a senior care advisor and his first recommendation was Canterfield of Kennesaw, not only for proximity but also for value, cleanliness and caregiver-to-resident ratio. I insisted on visiting a number of facilities within a reasonable distance to make sure we found just the right place. There simply was no comparison. I knew my dad would do well at Canterfield and I was a peace with the decision. We've not regretted the decision for a moment. My dad is actually thriving and that makes my heart happy.

We had almost no time to find a place for my husband, who was discharged from the hospital in no condition for me to take him home. Canterfield made it easy to ready a room in assisted living. It was determined that he would need extra care. Unfortunately it turned out that he needed more and he was moved to Memory Care. The staff made that move with great care, even hanging up planes and pictures on the walls. (his favorites). The contact with his caregivers is prompt and very helpful.

[date removed] our family needed to look for a place where my mother would fell at home and safe. It was time to ask her to do the unthinkable and move into a assisted living facility. We had many choices but after taking many tours of some facilities we knew Canterfield was the one. While during our tour many staff said hello and welcomed my mother not knowing we were just touring. The facility was very clean . The residents seem to enjoy their surroundings and the staff. At first my mother was not on board with what food that was being served but alfter a talk with the cook and to tell them what she liked, her experience has made 180 . She has meet new friends and has told us it is starting to feel like home. .

Loved this place, beautiful and very clean and huge walk in closets!

Canterfield of Kennesaw is not only a beautiful, welcoming facility but I have NEVER seen any care takers and employees with a more positive attitude. I've been to many nursing homes, senior living and assisted living places but everyone there seems genuinely happy to be there which makes a HUGE different to those living there and their families. Our family is so thrilled we found this place for my father. We had family at other places near Marietta/East Cobb and this is by far the best environment in terms of the people/care.

My family member has been here for 9 months. I pop in often and at different times of the day. The staff is always very friendly and accommodating. My family member is very happy there. She goes to many different activities and has made many friends. The place is always clean and her room is well taken care of. There is always something going on for the residents. I usually have to call her room several times before I get her since she spends so much time out of her room. I think this is a wonderful facility and would highly recommend it.

I would highly recommend this community. Every time I have visited the place was clean and I always see the staff interacting with the residents in a supportive way. It feels more like family than just CNAs. The food is nice looking and taste good as well. They seem to always have an activity going on. [Name removed] at the front desk is super sweet and very knowledgeable.

Canterfield of Clay County is a beautiful, brand new community. We were able to move my mother in right before the hurricane, and we found the staff to be more than accommodating. They were very helpful, quick to act and follow up, and very caring. My mother wasn’t eating very well before she moved there, but she enjoyed the food at Canterfield, and was eating much better there. I would highly recommend this community to others.

My best day was when my mother said "I really like being here....they take good care of me"...then I new I had made the right choice. Thank you for making your residents care a priority. Mom is content and well cared for and that gives me peace of mind. Thank you all for loving my mom too.

Overall, we and Mom are very pleased. Most of them are very friendly and attentive. Apartment is cute and well maintained. Mom has a studio and it is plenty of room.

I have not lost my mind like the rest of the residents. I’ve not had good luck with weekend coverage. The coverage has been good during the week. I hesitate to say more because of the identification requirements.

Very nice accommodations. Amenities are nice.It would be nice if the bottom kitchen cupboards would have pull out shelves or drawers. Very few 85 year olds are inclined to get on their hands and knees to retrieve items. So unused kitchen space. It appears that Canterfield is saving dollars on food served in the dining room. Attention should be given to preparing healthy food for residents. More fruit, vegetables and Mediterranean diet options should be provided for the health of residents. Same menu for a week is boring and unappetizing.

Overall experience is still good. They've had personnel changes which are a challenge. The cleanliness and staff are a 5. They are always helpful and communicate with me. Meals and dining are good. Activities are great, they're always doing something fun. Value is still great.

We have an Activity Director who pays attention to the interests of our group. He plans a wide variety of offerings and his goal is take us pleased and not just busy! I am in Independent Living...my husband was in Memory Care. Both Directors successfully engage their differing participants. Kudos to [name removed] and [name removed]!!

It's a great, family friendly atmosphere. Everyone is very welcoming. They keep lots of activities planned. And it's a beautiful place. The apartment is easy to get around. The bedroom is large. The bathroom is super large, with a step-in shower. There's a walk-in closet and a beautiful balcony. One area for improvement is the dog area could have been larger and perhaps had artificial turf. It was near a water run-off area and could get kind of muddy. But it was a great place.

My parents are residents here and it's been a good experience so far. It's very clean, staff is good, and they have activities available. They're also pet friendly!

We toured with Canterfield of Fort Myers and they gave us a good tour. The location was just too far for our family. We also did not feel that the staff were as attentive as we would have liked during the whole touring process. We also did not get any follow up from them after the fact.

Staffing seem to have issue to keeping staff around, high turnover rate. If can get this issue corrected, believe it will be much better. Overall would say that for what it is, it is not perfect but they certainly try their best to make it a great experience.

Our family had an in person tour and the tour experience was positive but at the time it was just not going to be the best fit.
