My husband was a resident at Ortega Gardens. He had the very best of care. The staff treated both of us with dignity and respect. It is not an easy job caring for someone with dementia but they did it with kindness and skills that I appreciate as a former nurse. I can’t say enough about the great care in a beautiful setting.

2 years ago we placed my brother in memory care at Ortega Gardens in Jacksonville Fl. It was a very emotional and trying time for our family. Brian Sheridan’s guidance was a huge help to us and definitely a blessing. Every time I step into Ortega I am impressed with the professional, friendly and very respectful atmosphere. My brother is very content and feels right at home here. The staff are here to help and continue to do an excellent job with the residents, family member’s, and visitors.<br>If we have any questions they are excellent at responding quickly. I am very impressed with the staff and how they maintain their day to day. I’m happy to see that my brother is happy and comfortable here. A big thank you to the owners and the staff. You are doing a great job!!

Last year our family diligently looked at and visited many assisted living homes with some type of memory care for my mother. Some not very good.  Thankfully, we came upon Ortega Gardens memory care and what a blessing it was. They are specialized in working and caring for dementia patients. Equally, all of their staff are trained on the compassionate care that was needed for them. Their facility is set up with three identical neighborhoods. From the least affected patients to the ones who progressively go thru dementia and need more care. This way they live and interact with the residents that are in about the same similar condition. It's an outstanding model that more long term care facilities should adopt. Unfortunately, most of the other place we visited lumped all of the dementia patients together. It was sad and not conducive to their disease and certainly not compasionate.<br>The family would sincerely like to thank Ortega Gardens and all of their staff for the care and compassion they showed our Mom throughout her stay and most importantly in her final days.
