The Gardens at Southern Manor

Overview of The Gardens at Southern Manor

The Gardens at Southern Manor is a 44-bed personal care facility located at 625 Gentilly Road in Statesboro, Georgia. Positioned near the city center in Bulloch County, the community features a secure neighborhood dedicated to memory care, behavioral monitoring, and short-term respite housing. The property maintains a 24-hour staffing schedule to support individuals experiencing progressive cognitive decline.

State administrative logs from the Georgia Department of Community Health outline an average of one deficiency per year over an eight-year tracking window, performing 80% better than the statewide baseline. While older inspections from November 2019 and January 2022 cited infractions involving the inappropriate use of physical restraints and baby gates, staffing gaps in the memory care unit, and un-updated individual service plans, subsequent tracking indicates thorough correction. Routine inspections in September 2021, state complaint audits in 2023 and 2024, and the most recent re-licensure survey on September 12, 2025, were all finalized with a citations-per-inspection rate of zero.

Daily activities are managed around the 44-bed layout and encompass an on-site beauty salon, organized group excursions, specialized menu options, and veteran benefit information resources. Personnel monitor medication schedules, coordinate physical tracking, and issue regular operational updates to local families. Public administrative databases show no current monetary penalties, operating fines, or licensing constraints against the business.

This compact environment is well-suited for seniors whose sponsors value an established record of corrected administrative protocols and verified perimeter tracking. Families are encouraged to visit the campus, evaluate the physical security of the memory wing, and confirm current nurse and certified medication aide scheduling with the management team before enrollment.
