Answer a few questions to get personalized results

Who are you searching for?

Residential care homes in Gainesville may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. Gainesville care homes typically take in fewer residents, meaning older adults know each resident in the home and develop strong friendships.

Older-adult care homes vary more than other options for senior living in Gainesville, so families can choose from a wide range of prices, amenities, and services. A Place for Mom will work with you to understand the cost of care homes. From there, we’ll help you find the right fit, whether you’re staying on a budget or searching for luxury retirement communities.

We are also serving Assisted Living facilities in surrounding neighborhoods like Lincoln Estates.
You may also consider nearby communities such as Hawthorne, Lochloosa and Durant Estates.

Samson Villa of Orange Park

5.0
They are just absolutely amazing! You would never know it was a nursing home. It was like you’re going to a nice clean, upscale home. And the rate was very comparable to other homes. The food is good – made right there. There are only six residents so they get lots of one-on-one attention!
