About Us

About us

If you or your loved one is considering assisted living, we know it’s not an easy decision. Moving from your home and trusting someone else to meet your or your loved ones’ needs is a big deal and we don’t take that responsibility lightly. Whether you have already made the decision to move or you aren’t sure assisted living is right for you, either way, it’s ok. Ask us questions, come tour, or join us for a meal. We want you to experience The Gardens lifestyle

We are nestled in a residential neighborhood at 1000 W. Washington Street in Jefferson. When our residents aren’t busy with the many activities they participate in, they enjoy being surrounded by the mature trees, sitting on our front patio, or gardening in our courtyard.

The Gardens is also conveniently located across the street from Greene County Medical Center, close to McFarland Clinic and minutes from surrounding communities. UnityPoint clinic is also connected to the hospital. Come see where life is blooming!

My grandpa lived at The Gardens for a year and a half and we could not have been more grateful for the staff there. My entire family felt immense relief knowing that he was in good care. Whether it was getting him his medication, a hot meal, or just a friendly conversation, we knew that he was always being treated with dignity and respect.

The Gardens was the perfect place for Mom when she decided she was no longer able to safely stay in her own home. The staff supported our family through the emotional transition -from registration, the move, Hospice contacts, and financial details. Once settled in, Mom received great care at all levels and we were timely notified of any concerns noticed by staff. An additional social benefit came from being around personable residents. Our family is grateful Mom was at The Gardens.

My mom Esther lived at the Gardens for almost 3 years. Tara and her staff are amazing people. The level of care and compassion my mom received was top notch. I would highly recommend anyone in need of assisted living try the Gardens. It takes a special kind of person to do what they do and the Gardens in Jefferson certainly has them!

I am the POA for our friend Bill that lives at The Gardens. Bill realized in March, 2025 that he needed to make a move to an assisted living facility. Bill wanted to remain in Greene County. We made an appointment to tour The Gardens in May. Bill knew at the end of May he had to move. We contacted Tara at The Gardens and she let us know they had a 2 bdrm available July 1. Tara was very helpful in getting is in by July. We had paperwork we had to complete, which were not difficult at all. We moved Bill in July 14, 2025. His apartment home was super clean, we had to do nothing. Bill has had such a wonderful experience! He goes to the dining room for his 3 meals/day. He loves the meal service, great food, hot. Some days he doesn't want to eat and there is no pressure to go. He has been cared for daily. They check on him, help shower him, do his laundry, clean his room and we've had no complaints. It's quiet, clean, friendly and secure! We could not be more pleased with The Gardens. A great place for your family member who needs to be assisted in daily activities.
