Update! Aug 12, 2022 It has been a year since my mom moved into the Gardens. It has been a wonderful year and she has settled in. It really helps that she considers it home now and is going to the activities like happy hour (with treats which she loves)and entertainment. The staff has been great at taking her to meals and the activities. Because of her alzhemiers she doesn't remember to go! Everyone from the great people at the front desk, Maria , the new director, all the aids, Kitchen staff and hospice are now friends not just employees. And the food is awesome! Dec 2021 Moving my mom to assisted living was a hard decision, but when we found The Gardens it took the fear away. Kristy made the decision very easy and was and is a joy to work with. Mom doesn't really realize she has moved but it gave us great peace of mind knowing she was being looked after 24/7. Everyone is so kind and helpful. And the food is really good. Her room is just the right size. Thank you Gardens!

The Gardens of Port St Lucie has treated my loved one as if she were a member of their own family

We have witnessed so many positive changes since Maria Ciocca took over as director of the Gardens. Our mother is supported and encouraged to attend activities and she is really enjoying bingo and the daily happy hour of music. We appreciate the activities they plan daily for the residence. The folks leading these activities are so friendly and loving to the residents, know their names and make sure everyone is having a good time. Thank you to all that work with our mother, we appreciate all that you do.

My mother spent a couple of years at the Gardens. The staff there is just wonderful very supportive and caring. It is not a fancy assisted living establishment - as we searched around the Port St. Lucie area but I will say it was perfect for my mother and for us. The staff quickly knew my mothers name snd what she she liked. They checked on her regularly and kept the family updated on her needs. The staff was very accessible. The nursing staff kept us updated on issues as they arose. My mother was very well cared for an lovely at the Gardens

Questions & Answers

When I visit assisted living communities with my daughter, I find it all a little intimidating. Moving from a small house to a big community is frightening. I just don’t know if I can learn my way around a new place.

My father needs more help than we can provide for him to be safe at home. I think he realizes it but is reluctant to leave the friends he’s made in his neighborhood. Dad has lived there for about 25 years. What can we do to reassure him he can stay connec

Good question! Embarking on a new chapter in life doesn’t mean old friends have to be left behind. Assisted living communities offer a wide range of programs and events residents can invite guests to participate in. And they also offer transportation services so your dad can attend events in and around town with his old buddies. Fortunately, there are other ways your father can stay in touch. Social media channels like Facebook or a video chat service such as Skype are two easy avenues for staying connected.

My mom agreed that it was time for her to move to an assisted living community this winter. She knows she just isn’t safe living alone any longer. We found a community Mom seemed to love. Now we can’t seem to get her motivated to actually make the move. I

This sometimes happen when it actually comes time to make the move. Your mom is probably anxious and a little uncertain. A late life transition like this isn’t easy to make. What might help is to get her involved in some of the events and activities at the new community now, instead of waiting until she actually moves in. Talk with the staff to see about helping her find a buddy with similar interests and hobbies that she can bond with during her visits. Becoming more familiar with the community and with a few fellow residents can help make the move feel a little less intimidating.

My children live out of town and have busy lives. I know I need to move to a senior living community but I don’t want to burden my children with downsizing my house. What can I do? It’s overwhelming to think about doing it all on my own.

We hear this concern from seniors often. Sorting through and packing up a lifetime of memories and belongings can be overwhelming. One resource we like to share with families is a group of professionals called Senior Move Managers. They are experts at handling all of the details of a later life move. You can find one near your home by visiting the National Association of Senior Move Managers or Certified Relocation & Transition Specialist.
