BERMAN COMMONS ASSISTED LIVING AND MEMORY CARE

Berman is a wonderful community with compassionate staff. Tara and Mulu stand out as examples of knowledgeable experts who used their experience and quick thinking to quite possibly have saved my Moms life. (Elizabeth). I can’t recommend them highly enough

Tara and Mulu are wonderful examples of compassionate and knowledgeable caregivers who using their experience and critical thinking skills had the foresight and take action when my Mom (Elizabeth) got critically ill. Their expertise saved her life. We are continually impressed by the staff and community at Berman and can’t recommend it enough.

I took mom to many places, both in Atlanta and South Fl where she lived. She chose Berman Commons. Initially it was not my first pick, but by the time mom was ready to go, they had completely updated the facility. To say that it is gorgeous does not do it justice! It does not feel stuffy or stiff at all though. It is just absolutely beautiful. At night it is incredibly peaceful and quiet and the lighting makes it feel almost magical. The apartments are significantly larger than any others we saw. It even has a HUGE walk in closet!! They will move or add shelves as you need (my mom is unusually tiny in stature). Which brings me to the staff: I am not even sure I can put into words the gratitude I have for the Executive Director Lisa Miner!!!!! She is an angel from God- I am sure of it! There is not another human more beautiful and caring and accessible than Lisa. If there is ever a staff member who does not appear to love and appreciate their job, or who is not a good fit, they are just gone and replaced with people who genuinely seem to care. The residents can be difficult (we get to be that way when we get to like 102!!!) but somehow the staff show up and do whatever it takes to be helpful and make the residents feel safe and cared for. It is small enough so they know all the residents by name and their stories. The food was not great when mom first got there, but Lisa got a new cook and now it is delicious! I can not say enough good about Berman Commons if you have a loved one who is in need of assisted living or memory care. I have been on the memory care ward several times and was surprised to see how wonderful the staff were with these folks as well. They do not just sit around- and the staff know them all! Update: I can hardly believe I failed to mention Tara! Tara is Director of Nursing. That said, there is nothing she will not do to help a resident, including endlessly searching for mom's lost keys! She and Lisa have worked together elsewhere for years. They are seriously the dynamic duo!!! P.s.s. To say food delicious may be a little too generous. That was first week of new chef:) Definitely days that it is really good; others meh... hard cook for that many people but they do good job trying to accomodate and know all residents and their preferences

Every time I visit I come away even more impressed with the people, their sincerity, and kindness.

An amazing place with a truly dedicated care team. My mom’s been at Berman for 4 years now and we couldn’t be more grateful for the care and kindness she receives from the staff.
