Southern Senior Retirement is a licensed Personal Care Home located at 515 South Hutchinson Ave, Adel, Georgia, with 22 licensed beds and a focus on helping seniors live comfortably while giving families peace of mind because they've got staff providing round-the-clock support and a good variety of care, including Assisted Living, Skilled Nursing, Memory Care, and Independent Living, with extra services like respite care and hospice support if someone needs them. You'll find this place welcomes people 55 and older, and they allow both cats and dogs as long as pets meet set requirements, so folks can keep animal companions close; they don't allow smoking inside anywhere, which helps the air, and many rooms are private with bathrooms, plus studios, one-bedrooms, and shared apartments to fit different needs. They've designed the community to be accessible, with wheelchair-friendly showers, ramps, and plenty of indoor and outdoor spaces like walking paths, courtyards, a small library, and group areas where residents can spend time with friends or attend one of the many activities from group exercises to book clubs, games, and devotional services-there's often something going on, including both on-site and trips elsewhere in the area. People get three chef-prepared meals each day, all planned by a staff dietitian, with special diets available if needed, and snacks are always out so nobody has to go hungry, which is nice, and if someone needs help eating, staff are trained for that, too. Folks moving in get help with the process, and the team works with them and their families, including with travel, adjusting to life here, and ongoing advice about senior living options from family advisors who know the area and the nearby care communities like Magnolia Manor Moultrie and The Canopy at Azalea Grove, both offering assisted living not far away. Free transportation is offered, and parking is available for residents who still drive, and services cover a lot: help with bathing, dressing, medication reminders, diabetic care, incontinence care, wound care, physical therapy, memory care in secure rooms, and general healthcare-staff do regular service assessments to make sure needs are met, and there's always someone around for emergencies. Housekeeping, laundry, cable, Wi-Fi, kitchenettes, and private phones are all part of the deal, while scheduled education and recreation keep people busy, and the place is known for its respectful, compassionate community feel where dignity and independence matter, but staff will step in as much or as little as needed. Reviewers say Southern Senior Retirement rates a 2.5 out of 5 stars, marked "Good," and while it may not be fancy, the focus is on safety, comfort, a sense of belonging, and keeping folks happy and healthy with what they need, whether that's long-term care, a short break for families through respite stays, or a steady place to enjoy a warm community in Adel, Georgia.

Unsafe unclean mismanaged senior facility
I liked the friendly staff, homey feel, and very good food at first, but my overall experience was awful. I found bed bugs, missing/mishandled medications (an antibiotic never filled), unsanitary rooms with urine/feces and a damp/moldy mattress, leaks and HVAC mold, poor supervision (staff sleeping, residents unattended), no/ineffective A/C, almost no activities, and terrible communication from ownership. I can't recommend this place until they fix the serious safety, cleanliness, and management issues.
