My wife passed Jan 5, 2024 and I moved into the Orchard on January 8th. Needless to say it was a very emotional time for me. The staff here took me under special care immediately. All of them are people persons who genuinely like you and seem to know what to do to comfort you in your time of need. I can see why The Orchard is number one of assisted care facilities in the area.

From the beautiful and functional facility to the fun activities planned for the residents, The Orchard is the perfect place for my mother. The level of care that my mother receives is excellent and I am so happy to have her there.

My Mother moved in to Orchard Athens one year ago. The staff are friendly, professional and very compassionate towards all the residents and have been wonderful to my Mother. The community is beautiful! There are lots of activities and Engagement staff who keep everyone active. My Mother is very content there and we as a family are eternally grateful that we found Orchard.

Rather suddenly, my loved one’s dementia progressed to a point that I can no longer provide him the care in my home he deserves. Having been down the assisted living path in the past, I feared the level of care and environment I wish for him just simply doesn’t exist. Take a tour of Orchard and you will be amazed!! It’s simply perfect!! This is professionalism at its best! And worth every penny! Thank you so much Orchard! I feel I can sleep peacefully again.

This is a first person account of my experiences with Orchard Athens and is offered as a statement of respect, gratitude, and a very high recommendation. It was obvious that residential care would be required for my loved one, and we considered more than one facility. First impressions can be misleading but not at Orchard. The sincerity, warmth and understanding were immediately evident and lasting. A year and a half later, I feel like a friend with the folks with whom I deal most closely. I sense a genuine concern and interest in the care they provide. They observe changes as the disease progresses and work closely with family caregivers to develop strategies that ease the fears and anxieties residents may experience. All of this is providing a much improved quality of life for my loved one.

I feel compelled to write this as I am just leaving the community where my 94 year old mother is now in the hands of the care staff at the Orchard Athens… and I am literally crying tears of joy. After a three year search in trying to find the best possible situation for my mother who has been living with me and my husband and who suffers from dementia, I am still in shock that a place like The Orchard exists, and my search is over. There are no words eloquent enough to describe what you will find here. They are an exceptional group of people and I am so blessed to have been led to them. Thank you Orchard Staff, from the depths of my heart.

We moved my mom into this incredible residence almost a month ago, her dementia having exceeded the personal care available at her previous assisted living facility. The administration and staff have exceeded our expectations and have been unfailingly responsive. We are grateful that mom has a safe and caring community to call home, especially during these uncertain times.
