My mom has been at Dougherty Ferry for almost three years and we have had a very positive experience. As my mothers Alzheimers progressed she was moved into Memory Care Unit. During the first few months, there was turn over in the staff which presented some challenges. It has now been almost a year that the head of Memory Care Unit , Giselle , has been in charge and she is truly remarkable. Through her actions, it is obvious that she not only cares for all the residents but also for her staff. She works with her staff to teach them how to individualize the care for each resident. On a Saturday evening, my Moms two caregivers called to express some concerns about changes in my moms behavior. They explained how they had spent time with her throughout the day comforting her when she was scared and making sure she felt safe. We talked about her progression in Alzheimers and what the next phase might look like. Recently, they hired an activity director who focuses on Alzheimer patients..... while she is new at the facility her enthusiasm and communication is already present. Since the onset of COVID, I see my Mom through window visits, the entire staff work hard to keep the COVID cases to a true minimum. Having a loved one in a facility during a pandemic can be very stressful, but I truly feel my Mom is in the best place for her. She is always clean, washed, and most importantly happy. The staff of memory care at DF are true frontline heroes!

Earlier this year my mom was hospitalized and had a short stay at a skilled rehab facility. It was there that they told us that my mom would no longer be able to live independently. I called Dougherty Ferry assisted living and scheduled a tour that next week. I immediately knew that this was going to be the best fit for her. The staff new each resident by name and it just felt very warm and welcoming. My mom has now been living there for a few months and has never been happier. She tells us all the time that there is not one thing that she does not like there. She loves the staff, she loves the food, she loves her room. She is very involved in the activities and looks forward to them every day. It has given us peace of mind knowing that she is living somewhere where she is safe, loved, and very well cared for. I will always say that Dougherty Ferry assisted-living was a Godsend!!!

We moved my mom into a studio apt at Doughtery ferry assisted living after we were told she could no longer live alone due to problems with her memory. It was a difficult decision that was made so much easier after I met Andy and toured the facility. I immediately knew this was the place for our mom. She has been there for 4 months and is the happiest I have seen her in YEARS! She had lived alone for 20+ yrs and didnt realize just how lonely she was. She has absolutely thrived living there and I believe it has given her a new lease on life. The staff are beautiful people who genuinely love their residents. I rest so much easier knowing my mom is in a place where she is kept safe, where she is loved and where she can live her best life.

My husband was in their Memory Care facility. The staff are wonderful; the facility is clean and neat. The residents, outside their moments, are great. I miss going to see him, and them, each day. I may look into their volunteer opportunities after all is settled from my husbands completed earthly journey. Regards to all.

I am a service worker at a different facility, and I met with Annemarie about doing a presentation on the power of laughter. A few weeks ago, she came to my facility, and the presentation was fantastic. The residents were laughing and participating in ways that we haven't seen here in a long time. The speech was engaging and informative. I have nothing but positive things to say about the members of this staff that I've worked with, and greatly look forward to working with them in the future.

This review is long overdue! My mom has lived here for over two years and really enjoys the facility, activities and staff. She is very social here and has lots of friends, not so sure she would have been like this alone in her home. I feel very comfortable and grateful for the care she receives, the staff here is very friendly and most of all take great care of my mom. Thank you all for caring about the people that call this place home.

What a nice facility and some of the most caring staff. Costs are lower than some other assisted living places in the area. I'd suggest you check out Dougherty Ferry before making a final decision, you'll be glad you did.

After a thorough search I selected Dougherty Ferry Assisted Living & Memory care for my mom. One year later I am very happy with the choice. My mom is getting great care and fits in very well socially. The facility is immaculate and the staff are pleasant and very supportive.

We have been very happy with the loving care my mother is receiving at the Dougherty Ferry Assisted Living and Memory Care facility. She suffers from dementia and is in the Memory Center here. The administrative staff is very pleasant to work with, they listen to our feedback with kindness, they are accommodating with requests made for our loved one in their care, and they are always open to suggestions we might have to better serve their residents. The care giving staff is equally as pleasant to work with. They are always happy and smiling while they work. They are quick to learn the habits of each of their residents and understanding how best to care for each individual. They are loving and patient with my mother, no matter what kind of mood she is in. The staff keeps the facility clean and looking nice and welcoming to everyone. I would definitely recommend this facility to anyone!

I care for my stepdad long distance and I moved him to this Dougherty Ferry when it first opened in April 2016 after having a very bad experience at another STL facility. Dougherty Ferry has been a wonderful place for him. He is in the special program for those with some dementia/early Alzheimer's and can still stay on the Assisted Living side. The staff is fabulous! They have become family to us. He is content and they keep him involved and active. They always call if there are any issues. They have "fun" and the other residents also appear very happy. They are a blessing and I am grateful daily to have Dougherty Ferry caring for my family member. I would recommend Dougherty Ferry to anyone who is looking a wonderful home for their family member.

Dougherty Ferry Assisted Living has been phoenominal for my mentally handicapped sister. Since our father passed away last year we found Cindy a brand new wonderful place to live. It is literally brand new and only 2 min. from our house. The amenities and staff are just incredible!!! From the food to the movie theater, garden, and all of the people who work there, just a great place. They even have a " Director of Fun" !! Thank you all so much for everything you do, every day. It has been a huge sense of relief knowing how well my sister loves it there and how well she is taken care of.

I want to thank each and every person who cared for our Mom in any way and even those who work behind the scenes to make Dougherty Ferry Assisted Living the wonderful community that it is! Words can't thank you enough for the love, concern and compassion shown to our Mom! ?? I wouldn't hesitate for even a moment to recommend this community to any son or daughter looking for 'a place to call home' for their parent. It is the hardest decision you will ever have to make but the best decision you could ever make!
