The Gardens of Port St. Lucie

The Gardens has exceptional people that work there . My favorite is Carol . She took care of my mother with such love,patience , and compassion until her passing last year. My father then decided to move there because of Carol’s kindness and passion with her patients . We are very pleased in having her as a part of our lives . Carol is family .

Starting with my very first phone call I found the staff at The Gardens extremely friendly and I quickly noticed how well the communication was between staff and with the residents and their families. We had communication in the form of phone calls, emails, texts and one on one meetings with Maria, the director. She was our main point of contact and answered our questions and offered excellent guidance when we needed assistance. The nursing staff got to know our mom very well and quickly recognized her needs. Their assessments for her care level were accurate and as her health declined she received all the care she needed to remain in her apartment. I personally noticed nursing staff going above and beyond their duties, once with a nurse manager staying past her shift to help with a prescription issue we were having. I also was very impressed with how the nursing staff really spent extra time talking with our mom especially when she was a little lonely and nervous in the beginning. Housekeeping and maintenance staff were also very attentive, which in part is a result of communication between staff. My mom always had a very clean and tidy room , and we were immensely thankful for help with TV set-up and remote control issues. The bright sunny rooms, tropical landscape and proximity to HCA hospital was perfect for our mom. She also loved the cafe style dining area and we heard on numerous occasions that the food was good and how the other residents were nice and engaging. Being out of state away from our mom was very difficult for us, but we felt like the staff and residents really were supportive and an extended family for her. We appreciated so many things about the facility, but the caring friendly staff and the efficiency of how things were addressed really standout as excellent.

Love The Gardens STAFF iS Great and SO arethe People that Stay here ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

From the very beginning I felt very welcomed here. Everybody is very friendly and nice. All of my meals are taken care of. The staff are here whenever I need them.There is always someone around eager to help. The housekeeping and laundry staff is very nice and they do a phenomenal job. The sales process was very easy and it went by so fast. Kristi made it so easy for me and helped me pick the perfect apartment. They really take time to think of us before we arrive. The move in team is beyond amazing I could not think of anything better to say. The food here is amazing I am a finicky eater and I have not found anything bad about the food. The meals are nutritious and filling. I love the fact that they have a resident ambassador here to help us when we are in need. My table mates are awesome and they really make me laugh all the time. Laughter is a good medicine and we all need that. I love that the staff is cross trained and are trained for any situation. We do live in Florida so hurricane season is always scary and I love that the staff is here during that time. I don’t have anything bad to say about this community all staff are truly amazing and lovable. I am so happy that I found this community I wish I would of found this community years ago. The community is really 5 stars it lives up to the name.

The BEST!! Upon entering the Gardens for the first time, I felt the welcoming,the warmth that grew as I met Kristie,Maria and more staff. Kristie our host is infectious, with a smile that comes from within her and tells me how much she loves being an employee of The Garden. I called my grown children and shouted, 'I found the Perfect Place for Dad!! You will shout also, go to the Garden!!!
