Canterfield of Kennesaw

It's a great, family friendly atmosphere. Everyone is very welcoming. They keep lots of activities planned. And it's a beautiful place. The apartment is easy to get around. The bedroom is large. The bathroom is super large, with a step-in shower. There's a walk-in closet and a beautiful balcony. One area for improvement is the dog area could have been larger and perhaps had artificial turf. It was near a water run-off area and could get kind of muddy. But it was a great place.

MY WIFE HAD A BLOOD CLOT ON HER LUNG SO WE MOVED INTO ASSISTED LIVING WHERE SHE GOT GREAT SERVICE. THE CLOT DISAPPEARED SO WE MOVED INTO AN INDEPENDENT VILLA WHERE WE HAVE LIVED FOR ALMOST 3 YEARS. I WOULD RECCOMEND THIS FACILITY TO ANYONE NEEDING A SENIOR LIVING HOME. INDEPENDENT LIVING DINING IS SIT DOWN AND ORDER FROM A MENU WITH FOUR OR FIVE ENTREES AND APPITIZERS. PLUS THERE'S ALWAYS FOUR OR FIVE DESSERTS TO CHOOSE FROM THE OPTIONS.

I am a current resident who has resided in Canterfield's Independent Living residence areas for over one year. I have been surprised at how quickly Canterfield has become my home. The food is excellent, with menues that change weekly. The wait staff are professionals who have become extended family. We not only have a full service gym and saline pool, but in-house nurse practitioner and physical/occupational/ speech therapists are available. I would not hesitate to recommend Canterfield to my friends and family.

The food served in the independent dining room is extremely good with an excellent variety. They serve soup, salads, appetizer and a choice of 5 entrees and dessert. The menu changes weekly. Sunday buffet is full of hot and cold choices.

The food at Canterfield is always good!! The chef and his staff prepare a Variety of different choices of soups, salads, appetizers, entrees and desserts weekly. You can also choose from a variety of sandwich’s and side items. The onion rings are fantastic!! The Chef and staff will gladly customize your meal from the menu selections. And, Sunday brunch is fantastic! It is buffet style that has multiple offerings that changes weekly.

Canterfield is a wonderful place to live. Several years ago my now deceased husband moved into the memory care portion of the property and he was happy and well treated. In 2021 it became beneficial for my sister and me to sell my large house and relocate. Naturally, I thought of Canterfield;however, we visited numerous properties before making our chose to live in the independent portion of Canterfield. PS The food is delicious and the menus are varied!

I would highly reccomend Canterfield of Kennesaw for your loved one. After visited a neighbor there a few years back, my Dad wanted to move in there. He was so lonely in his condo and longed for the companship of others and was impressed with the amount of activities available for the residents. We checked it our as throughly as we could and we are very happy that he was able to places here. The majority of the staff really care about the residents and that is most important criiteria for a wonderful facility. Dad is very happy here and we are very happy that such a wonderful facility is available for him.

Wonderful staff! The food is amazing!!!!

Staffing seem to have issue to keeping staff around, high turnover rate. If can get this issue corrected, believe it will be much better. Overall would say that for what it is, it is not perfect but they certainly try their best to make it a great experience.

I think the most important thing is how supportive the staff are. The facility is not even half full yet, so my parents don't have as many friends yet, but the activities director is awesome. They have a really nice outdoor pool and a nice gym. The facility itself is perfect inside, but the location isn't great. The view is of a 24/7 daycare center behind their building, and it's not in a clan part of town, although I think the area is gradually starting to be cleaned up.

The staff are very involved and great to work with. They had a welcome basket in my loved one's room when we were moving in. They were able to jump in and assist in doing my loved one's hair without requesting them to do it. My loved one is always well groomed and put together when visiting. The community keeps you updated on your loved one's care and wants you to be involved in the care if you want to. They offer support groups as well. They have lots of activities for the residents to choose from to participate in. The food is good and served hot.

We chose Canterfield of Kennesaw because of the convenience to where I live and work and they provide proper care for her diabetes which she was not receiving at her previous facility. The room sizes here are a little smaller than what she had. They send out weekly newsletters to let us know about meals and activities they are providing for the upcoming week and any changes with covid protocols, we get them via email as well. I would definitely recommend to others looking.

I moved my mother here after some issues with her medications from another facility. A Place For Mom helped me find this place. They have been great working with her doctor getting her medications (she is diabetic) back under control. She is happy at Canterfield and is making friends (she already had one here & didn't know, a lady from her church). I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

My mother has been a resident of Canterfield since September of 2020. Canterfield is a great facility with an excellent and caring staff. The caregivers that work directly with my mother have all been excellent and are in constant contact with me regarding her care. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for a residence for their loved one!

We recently had to make the difficult decision to move my dad to memory care. We were working with a senior care advisor and his first recommendation was Canterfield of Kennesaw, not only for proximity but also for value, cleanliness and caregiver-to-resident ratio. I insisted on visiting a number of facilities within a reasonable distance to make sure we found just the right place. There simply was no comparison. I knew my dad would do well at Canterfield and I was a peace with the decision. We've not regretted the decision for a moment. My dad is actually thriving and that makes my heart happy.

We had almost no time to find a place for my husband, who was discharged from the hospital in no condition for me to take him home. Canterfield made it easy to ready a room in assisted living. It was determined that he would need extra care. Unfortunately it turned out that he needed more and he was moved to Memory Care. The staff made that move with great care, even hanging up planes and pictures on the walls. (his favorites). The contact with his caregivers is prompt and very helpful.

[date removed] our family needed to look for a place where my mother would fell at home and safe. It was time to ask her to do the unthinkable and move into a assisted living facility. We had many choices but after taking many tours of some facilities we knew Canterfield was the one. While during our tour many staff said hello and welcomed my mother not knowing we were just touring. The facility was very clean . The residents seem to enjoy their surroundings and the staff. At first my mother was not on board with what food that was being served but alfter a talk with the cook and to tell them what she liked, her experience has made 180 . She has meet new friends and has told us it is starting to feel like home. .

Staff moves about with purpose. Some more attentive than others. One, [name removed] I believe, is rude and very aloof. Doesn't do much, this according to my family.
