Don't be fooled! Looks can be very deceiving !!! This facility recently underwent an investigation from the Georgia department of community health and was cited with several violations, one very serious. Two residents were involved in a physical altercation in which one suffered a fractured femur. Manor Lake neglected to report it to the department of community health and were cited with serious deficiencies. Ever since they opened in 2022, they have been short staffed and unable to keep good management. They have already been through two executive directors since opening in 2022, not to mention the turnover in general staff. My father was a resident from November 22 until he passed away in March 24, and he was one of the residents that the department of community health found to have not received adequate care, as he was not considered a qualified candidate for this type of facility, and he should have been in a skilled nursing facility. This place may be brand new and look very nice, but for the safety and well-being of your loved ones, please heed this warning!
