    Caring staff but serious neglect

    I placed my mom in this small, homey facility and appreciated the caring, friendly staff, hands-on owner, clean rooms, good food, medication management, and social activities (bingo) - she was happy and well taken care of. However, I also saw frequent staff turnover, limited activities at times, no kosher option, and a serious neglect incident with late notification (several residents died within weeks), so I recommend cautiously and with close oversight.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment across the reviews is predominantly positive, with many families praising the staff, cleanliness, home-like atmosphere, and responsive owner. A consistent cluster of comments describe staff as friendly, caring, and attentive; several reviewers singled out the owner and administration as hands-on, open, and communicative. The facility’s smaller size and personal atmosphere are repeatedly noted as fitting well for residents who need close attention and prefer a homier setting. Many reviewers report that their loved ones enjoy the meals, have improved mood, are socializing and making new friends, and feel comfortable in the community. Multiple families explicitly state they would recommend the community and describe the value and quality of care as excellent.

    Facility and environment receive strong positive marks: reviewers repeatedly describe the property as very clean, well maintained, and pleasant. Several reviews emphasize the homey pace and smaller size, which contributes to perceptions of personalized care. Practical benefits like location and accessibility were also noted. Safety is highlighted in at least one review that states the environment was appropriate for a fall-risk resident, and medication management is called out positively in multiple comments.

    Dining and social life show mixed but mostly favorable impressions. Numerous reviewers praise the food (delicious smell, enjoyed meals), while others note activity opportunities such as bingo and general socialization. However, there are clear inconsistencies: some reviewers say activities are limited or not applicable to their loved one, and a few report residents being idle during meals with minimal interaction. A specific dietary limitation appears in the reviews — the facility does not provide kosher meals — and at least one reviewer reported that food was not served as posted on the menu.

    Management and staff stability present a mixed picture. While many reviews praise the owner as hands-on, caring, and responsive — which families find reassuring — there are repeated mentions of frequent staff turnover. That turnover appears to be linked by some reviewers to inconsistent experiences in care quality. The majority of comments that mention management are positive, but the turnover note suggests families should ask about staffing continuity when evaluating placement.

    Serious safety and quality concerns are present in a minority of reviews and must be noted. One reviewer reported that their grandmother was left unattended and in pain, with late notification to the family, and that the grandmother died within two weeks of arrival. That same reviewer also reported four other resident deaths within a 30-day window. These are extreme and alarming claims that contrast sharply with the many positive accounts. Other negative points include isolated reports of poor care and meals not matching posted menus. Given the severity of the deaths and neglect allegation, these specific reports represent significant outliers that warrant direct follow-up, verification, and discussion with management before making placement decisions.

    In summary, the dominant themes are favorable: a clean, home-like facility with friendly, caring staff and an engaged owner, good medication management, social opportunities for many residents, and generally positive family recommendations. Counterbalancing this are important caveats: inconsistent activity programming, some dining issues (including no kosher option), staff turnover, and a few serious, specific allegations of neglect and multiple deaths reported by one reviewer. Prospective families should weigh the generally positive pattern of reviews against the severity of the negative reports, ask targeted questions about staffing stability, recent incidents, notification procedures, and dietary accommodations, and request up-to-date references or documentation from the facility to reconcile these divergent accounts.

    About My Parents Paradise

    My Parents Paradise is a senior care home with studio and one-bedroom apartments, as well as shared living spaces, where staff help with things like bathing, dressing, and managing medicine, and if someone needs more help, like getting out of bed or reminders to go to the bathroom, the staff can do that too; they've got folks who stay a long time, some for years, so you see familiar faces every day which makes it feel homier, and they're set up so residents can get different kinds of assistance, from light reminders to full support including lifting or feeding if that's needed, and they even help with things as specific as changing bandages, giving insulin shots, and diabetic care, plus they can accommodate residents who wander or might get confused, with secure areas just for memory care and special alarms to prevent anyone from getting lost. The building is all on one level and is wheelchair-friendly, with safety features in the bathrooms and hallways, and there's a chef cooking three home-style meals each day, including options for vegetarian, gluten-free, diabetic, kosher, and low-salt diets, plus snacks if people get hungry between meals, and families can visit whenever they like to eat with their loved ones. There's a games room, massage sessions, a small movie theatre, and lots of things scheduled every day - cooking and gardening, yoga and stretching, karaoke, outings, sometimes intergenerational events where young and old mix, and birthday parties or special holiday meals, and they've even got religious services and celebration programs for those who want to take part. There's support from on-call doctors, podiatrists, and visiting nurses, along with therapists for speech, physical, and occupational needs, and they can call on a dentist if someone needs dental care. Residents can bring their own pets under certain rules, and the staff can help with walking the pets or taking them out. People who live here get their laundry done, their rooms cleaned, and transportation is provided for errands, trips to the doctor, or social activities, and there's parking for those who still drive. The outdoor areas are shaded with a garden where residents can sit or join in activities if they wish. This place also has a separate memory care unit for those with dementia or Alzheimer's, with staff who know how to help residents stay comfortable and safe, offering reminders and supervision all the time, and they've got all kinds of ways to keep people engaged, from trivia and Wii games to simple art projects or watching classic movies. For those who need a short stay or are just recovering from being in the hospital, they offer respite and hospice care too. All these services come together in a building that feels more like a large family house than anything else, where the focus is on personal care, good meals, shared experiences, and making each day as comfortable and safe as possible for every resident.
