I would never trust this facility with my parent. It seems like they care more about getting paid than the health and well-being of their residents. Maintenance is terrible and takes forever to address issues. The building has a serious roach problem, and many of the nurses and directors are rude, dismissive, and unprofessional. There have also been very serious safety concerns that, in my opinion, were not handled with the transparency they deserved. Based on what I witnessed and experienced, I believe this facility should be investigated. Overall, this is not a place I would recommend to anyone looking for quality care for a loved one.

This is the 2nd time our Mom has been at Delmar Gardens for Rehab. The entire staff are amazing and professional, and the rooms and building are always clean. Moms been in other rehabs over the years after an hospital stay, and DELMAR IS THEE BEST, and most importantly mom feels comfortable and happy when she’s there. She said if she ever needed to go full time into Nursing home, DELMAR is where she wants to go. Thank you to all your amazing staff from admissions, to nursing staff, to housekeeping and kitchen staff for your great care of our mom.

When I need a loving environment- this is where I want to be! My 75 year old mother has been at Delmar Gardens in Smyrna since July… She is in the independent living side and I could not be happier with this decision. There are fabulous activities for the residents, healthy food, transportation is available to doctors and shopping, not to mention the salon, and doctors that come to Delmar so residents can get everything they need without even leaving home! Perhaps the best part of Delmar is the administration and staff… they truly care about their residents! From Mrs Jennifer to Ms Rubyona, Ramona, Rose, Phyllis, Mario, Nate, Ericka, Donna, Bri, Deborah, Yaya and all… The peace of mind I have knowing my mother is in a safe space being cared for means everything! My sister and I have already decided when we want a bit more support, we will room together at Delmar! ❤️

Moving my 92 year old mother from her friends and her home for 60 years was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. But the staff and residents at Delmar Gardens have made the transition so much easier for us. From the moment I walked in the door I knew this was the Assisted Living Facility for her. The big pink and purple flowers on the carpet, the cool light fixtures, the neon green and fuchsia furniture, and the pastel walls make the place look more like a trendy resort than a senior living facility. There is a “happy” feeling when you walk in the door. My mother has done so well and I’m so thankful for the caring staff that gives her so much attention and provides so much to make her lifestyle comfortable and enjoyable.
