351 Wilmington Island Rd, Savannah, GA 31410, United States
This place is special because the staff is special, especially Patty, Lori, and Ashley. My grandmother transitioned here because it was the only place she said she would ever go outside of her home, and after seeing how they cared for her, it was clear why she felt that way. Our family was not an easy one to manage, but this group did all they could to be caring, thoughtful, and patient as we worked through a difficult time for all. I am forever grateful for their kindness and highly recommend Summer Breeze.

This senior living facility is and always has been great! Much of the staff, from leadership to care staff to kitchen, have been there many many years. There is always something going on, whether a special event, organized activity or just residents engaging one another on their own!
A tragically ill-equipped and poorly trained facility. The food was poor, and unhealthy, the care at times negligent, and the administrators were either incompetent at best or downright dishonest. My father fell multiple times and were not always told. They sent him to the hospital without our permission. Our family will never forgive this terrible company for what they did to my dad. Dementia care was deplorable. Memory care facility was awful. They'll be lucky if we don't get lawyers involved.
Loved my job as a RA, loved my residents there and only one management was there for me the rest of the management team didn't care about their staff, alot bullying and nothing was done. My hours were shifted monthly when I was full time and didn't care about my health when I had blood clots. Very unorganized and not enough people on the floor for the residents. Management most the time was out on "vacation" barley there through the week if you had any concerts the ED didn't want to hear it, didn't care.
I have hesitated to post a review, but I feel that I owe it to families looking to place their loved one here. My mom was in the MC unit for almost 3 years , starting during COVID in July of 2020. I have multiple issues and stories to tell, but I will try to keep it short and succinct. To sum it up, the MC unit is very crowded and in need of updating. The residents are squished into a very small living room area that only really has enough room for about 8 max to be comfortable, and 8 is a stretch! The aide staff while Mom was there was very caring, and I was comfortable with her being there. However, they had a hard time doing their jobs because they were not supported by management and no care plan was ever given. Also, when I did have any concerns, management became defensive and unresponsive. My mother fell last June and had to go to the hospital with a brain bleed, and no one from SB mgt bothered to call and check on her or give us any guidance on what next steps to take. When we finally got back to SB, Mom declined rather rapidly and began having seizures, with the last one resulting in a fall and gash to her head. 2 days later I was informed by the MC manager that my mother needed to be moved to a nursing home, that she had exceeded their care level, which I completely understand, but Patty Dixon didn’t have the balls to tell me that to my face, nor did the new nurse manager come and explain it to me or assist me and explain options. They also didn’t bother, once Mom was moved to Azalealand, to ever call and check to see how she was, not that I expected them to. But to me, it’s common courtesy when you have a residential facility that you “care so much” about your residents, that you would want to follow up on them. All that being said, them kicking her out was actually a blessing because I no longer have to deal with the deceitful, underhanded, negative drama that surrounded the last three years, and I now have my mother in a fabulous nursing home in MO. The difference is night and day!! I can’t even tell you how clean the new place is (SB not so much!), which I complained about but nothing was ever done. Also, the new facility has wonderful activities, and they are literally engaging with the residents, taking them to the activities, treating them like older moms and dads and grandmas and grandpas should be treated! Also, I have learned since Mom was kicked out that they have fired most all of the staff that cared for her. In summation, if you are looking to place a loved one into a MC facility, I suggest you look around!!
