I would not recommend this place at all. The building smells horrible the moment you walk in, and it honestly feels very poorly maintained. Parts of the facility look like they’re falling apart, which makes it hard to feel comfortable about the level of care being provided. There is also a constant beeping noise from machines or alarms that never seems to stop, which creates a stressful and chaotic environment instead of a calm one. Overall, the atmosphere is unpleasant and the facility does not seem well kept. It’s really disappointing and concerning for a place that’s supposed to care for people. 😕

Diversicare is a phenomenally GREAT nursing home whose nurses and workers are filled with genuine LOVE, RESPECT, COMPASSION, and TOPNOTCH care for not only the patients but their families as well. Each and every patent is clean, well fed and treated with utmost dignity. It is always immaculately clean and smells like fresh. They also do a fantastic job in entertaining the patients with holiday and seasonal decorations acknowledging all special times of the year from the New Year's Day, April's Flowers Fourth of July etc. But the best part is of course the LOVING and DILIGENT care they give each and every patient with no exceptions. They and their beds, baths, clothes etc are clean. The are well nourished. And they are treated with dignity as well as with a sweet sense of humor and love. They are a loving family for all of their patients every single day. I can not recommend them highly enough after the years that we have had our family member there. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a loving, friendly, and caring "family" for your patient. No matter his or her personal needs, this is this loving care your family member needs.

I just wanted to share how very thankful we are for diversicare. Unfortunately we needed a little extra care with mom a little over a year ago so this facility was recommended by wellstar in lagrange. During moms stay we have fell in love with the nurses and staff at this facility. They have showed not only love to mom but for the whole family and friends. The facility is very clean, well maintained, and attentive towards their residents and always made you feel welcomed. Activities planned and attended. We have laughed, cried, and prayed together like family with this wonderful staff. Administrators are wonderful also cause without their help with paperwork i would have been lost. I'm glad we chose diversicare to help and take care of mom. We know she is very cared for and didn't have to worry. Thank you all for being there and taking care of mom like you have. We will be forever grateful. Love always the family of shirley smith. Our little soldier.

I would like to Thank the staff at Diversicare for the impeccable service they provided for my Mom while she was recovering from surgery. They were very attentive, they listened and kept us updated on my Mom’s progress and condition. Therefore, if you ever have to send your love ones to a Nursing home facility, I highly recommend Diversicare. Thanks again to all the Staff for all of your hard work and kind words of encouragement to my Mom doing her recovery. We are grateful for your service!
