Assisted Living
We’re still on cloud nine after celebrating our mom’s 100th birthday at Arbor Terrace! It truly couldn’t have been a more perfect setting—especially since it’s already her home and community.
…This celebration meant so much to our family. Our mom, Thelma, is finally embracing her age with pride and joy—she’s still saying the celebration isn’t over! Seeing her so happy and cared for reminds us she is exactly where she should be in this season of her life.
Our journey to Arbor Terrace started back in late 2024 when we knew Mom needed to be closer to us. Susie gave us the confidence to choose AT, and we’ve never looked back. The love and care shown to our “Centurion” has made this emotional transition so much easier for our family.
I cannot say enough about the staff and service at Arbor Terrace. Everyone consistently goes above and beyond to make sure that my father’s needs are met.
…The food and service in the dining room are top-notch. There is even a private room that families can reserve for meals with their loved ones. The whole community has gone through a beautiful update, and it’s even more welcoming than ever. Making the transition to assisted living is never easy for our loved ones, but I have peace of mind knowing my father is safe and well cared for at Arbor Terrace Sudley Manor.
My grandma has been living at Arbor Terrace Sudley Manor now for a couple years and feels safe and well cared-for. She always tells me about all the activities they offer that keep her busy and engaged. The entire staff was incredible helping us move her in and I cannot think them enough for their compassion, sense of urgency, and assistance both then and as we continue to navigate this stage of her life. A special shout out to Sree and her team for their patience, expertise, and care they exhibit every single day. I also want to especially thank the nursing staff that are very much on top of her medications and coordinating the information between the various professionals responsible for my grandma's medical care.
Bridges
I had a fantastic visit and tour at Arbor Terrace. I met with their Sales Director Destine who was great. She was thorough in covering their program and what makes them different. As we toured it was easy to notice how she openly engaged with everyone she saw - by name, with smiles and hugs. I also met Rupi the Executive Director who I had already spoke with on the phone. She was amazing as well. Their culture shines through and is clearly the best I have seen.
THIS IS THE PLACE! I moved my 88 year old mother to Arbor Terrace Sudley Manor (ATSM) after being diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease three years ago. She was living alone independently in her long time home in Tennessee. I knew transitioning would be difficult for her, but Rupi and her staff assured me it would be just fine. It is indeed, my mother is happier than she's been in years just to have this community of loving people around daily.
It is such a relief to have our father in a situation where he is safe, respected, and treated with dignity. He is receiving care that we are not able to provide in our home and despite his physical and memory challenges has found friendship.
Memory Care
My husband has been a part of this community for about six weeks. At first when I would leave, he would want to go with me but the wonderful staff would engage him in something else while I left and he was fine. Now, he doesn't even act interested in going with me when I leave. The activity directors do a wonderful job providing appropriate programing throughout the day. The meals look delicious and are catered to each person's needs.
The staff members know each person by name and talk to them often. I would want my husband in no other place!
My wife has resided at Arbor Terrace’s memory center for 14 months. I have been totally satisfied with the care she has received. Enrolling her was the hardest decision I have ever made and, honestly, I should have enrolled her sooner for her safety and my peace of mind.
Once I made the decision that she needed the support that only a memory center could provide, I hurriedly surveyed ten local memory centers using a checklist I had developed with the help of professionals. Arbor Terrace ranked at the top of my ranking using quality of life, management experience and philosophy, and cost. I have not been disappointed.
My mom has been living in Arbor Terrace Sudley Manor's Memory Care Unit for almost a year. I visit her regularly and have been very impressed and pleased with the care she is receiving. I have observed that the entire staff is friendly and has a positive attitude and a strong work ethic. The communications with our family has been very good. They have an outstanding team of activities staff that keep my mom busy with singing, exercising, playing games, etc. Without a doubt, I would highly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a safe, clean, upbeat home for a parent suffering from some form of dementia. Come check it out.
