August 2021
After a year of my 87 year old Dad who has dementia living with my husband and me, I have been getting more and more emotionally exhausted. I began researching for assisted living-memory care options in Bartow county. I came across Dogwood Forest in Acworth. I met Lori Ghassedi and she instantly put me at ease. We went to a furnished model apartment in the assisted living area and sat down and she asked me about our situation and what had brought me to this visit. I love all the options available at Dogwood Forest for the residents. Sadly though, I realized my Dad was likely beyond the ability to handle the scope of it all because he has gotten very confused and anxious even in our home. But our choices seemed limited and I held out hope, asking Lori if she would mind showing my sister from NC all they have to offer here when she was coming in a couple of weeks. She said absolutely, and weekend tours were not out of the ordinary.

We moved my parents into Dogwood Forest about two months ago. My Dad has ALS and my mom needed extra help. Dogwood and the staff have been amazing! We were even able to move in their beloved Standard Poodle and he was welcomed with open arms. They go above and beyond to see that my parents feel at home and have what they need. And if theres something my parents would like to change or are unhappy with the staff has a sit down with the family and figure out how to fix it 🙂

We planned to move my mom into Dogwood, but she wound up in the hospital before she got there. The staff at Dogwood were great at helping us manage her transition from the hospital to rehab to Dogwood. Lori Ghassedi made this all possible, as she is a great advocate for us. She helped us coordinate her move from the hospital-rehab to Dogwood, she proactively contacted to hospital care coordinator to make sure we were all on the same page. Dogwood has the feeling of a home, its clear that the staff deeply care about the residents as they know everyone by name.

Lori Ghazeedi and the entire staff at Dogwood Forest of Acworth are an amazing team. They guided my brother and me through the entire process of placing Mom in the Memory Care Center and their guidance and professionalism was outstanding. From the first communication with them through getting Mom moved and settled in, they have been attentive, responsive, compassionate, extremely helpful and their upbeat attitude is always present. Every single staff member we have encountered and who deals with Mom has gone above and beyond to answer questions, make sure Mom is settled in her apartment, making sure she is engaged and socializing with other residents and giving updates and pictures of how Mom is doing in her new environment. We sleep better knowing Mom is in a safe environment with people who are committed to providing compassionate care. Many team members, from top management to maintenance to med technicians, to the salon hair stylist, to the activities director, the list goes on.....all stated they love their work and it truly shows. I simply cant say enough good things about the Dogwood Forest of Acworth team. Mom feels safe and is very happy in her new environment. They truly make us feel we have an extended family at Dogwood Forest. Our heartfelt thanks goes to the entire team!

This is one of the most loving senior living communities. The compassion of the General Manager, Melanie, is amazing and she goes above and beyond to help the residents and family members. Lori, the sales director, is constantly engaging the residents and you can tell she loves her job helping seniors.

My Dad has been a resident here for almost 2 years. Dogwood Forest is like no other. Our Dad was no longer able to live alone. He was getting forgetful and lonely. I can sleep at night knowing that he is safe, taken care of and well fed. My Dad has more friends than I do. He is so social and participates in a lot of the activities. What has stood out to me the most about Dogwood is how well they took care of my Dad during COVID. Their communication, willingness to help him was amazing. Melanie the Director so incredible.

My mother has been living at Dogwood Forest for a couple years. We are recently having some issues with her Long Term Care Insurance Policy. The new Director, Melanie, has been a great advocate for my mom and has made this stressful situation easier to navigate.

My moms dementia is progressing to the point I cant alone take care of her. She was placed in the hospital about a month ago. They sent her to short term rehab. The short term rehab facility didnt want to accommodate for the foods I knew she would eat so she just wouldnt eat. When I say this we are talking about things a 3 year old might want to eat; hamburger, pbandj sandwich or chicken nuggets.
April 2021
My mother moved in a week ago and they have done everything they can to accommodate for her. I cant praise them enough for the way they have gone out of their way; not just one person but everyone, the communities relations director, manager, chef, business relations and nurses.

Everyone was so kind on tour at the community. Vantnesa was efficient as she kept in touch and confirmed at every steps. I loved the experience and that is why I rented an apartment and decided to move in.

Mom joined the Dogwood Forest memory care family a year ago. She had advanced dementia . We were very concerned about the change of lifestyle and level of care. Now we are very grateful of the customized consideration for her personal needs and group activities . They are a professional group of caregivers who's’ actions back up many of the programs in place. When mom transitioned to final stage care , they were the extended family that made the difference in her graceful passing. Most of our family is from out of town. They went well and beyond to keep us updated and assist with medical details. Again mom is gone , But we have come to know an extended family of professionals for life.

I have nothing but praise for the administration and staff. The physical plant is exceptionally beautiful and sell maintained. Planned activities are more than sufficient. ( But you can only lead a horse to water.)

Transitioning my Mom to assisted living has been a challenge over the past year. She is lucky to be doing well, but no longer well enough to live alone. The folks at Dogwood Forest of Acworth have helped us every step of the way. Special recognition to Denise ( executive director), Meg ( activities director), James ( maintenance director), Susan ( front desk), and Randy ( transportation). Also many thanks to all med techs!

I am so thankful this facility is so close by and so wonderful. My father has lived there over 2 years now and our experiences have been very positive. The facility is beautiful, and the staff are even better. My Dad feels right at home there and always tells me how much enjoys living there. I honestly cannot imagine what his life would be like without the loving care of the team there.

Clearly the best choice that we could have made for my parents! Loving and warm! They are well cared for and safe and beyond that... mom is happy!

My parents moved to Georgia in July 2015. We found Dogwood Forest and fell in love with the facility as well as the staff. Everyone is so caring and encouraging and my parents felt at home immediately. In October my dad passed away and we needed to move mom over to Inspirations, the Memory Care side of Dogwood Forest. This place is second to none! It's bright and beautiful and the staff is WONDERFUL!! Michelle, the Director of Inspirations, is the most "hands on" person you will ever meet. She cares for each resident as if they were her own parent. She knows each one of them by name, knows their likes and dislikes, and is continually visiting and loving on them. Heather, the Activities Director, always has something going on. You will never walk in and see the residents just sitting around by themselves. She keeps their minds engaged with games, puzzles and trivia throughout the day. I couldn't be happier with the love and care that mom is receiving here. I can't say enough wonderful things about Dogwood Forest. We are so thankful that we found a place that we can trust to take such excellent care of our loved one!

I would highly recommend Dogwood Forest of Acworth for those looking for assisted living care for their loved ones. They care deeply for the residents in their community and will go the extra mile to meet their needs. Always a pleasure to walk into a community where not only are you greeted with a smile from the staff , but the residents are smiling and happy too. I also enjoy seeing the seniors involved with all the activities going on in the community. Thanks for the great care you provide for your residents.
