Continuing Care in Hollywood, Florida

Janis

I'm at Five Star Premier Residences of Hollywood. Everybody is so friendly and helpful, and I've had no problem adjusting. They have very good meals; I have no complaints with it. They're just very helpful. You ask them a question, and they'll help you out. It's very nice and very well kept. They are pet friendly, there's a beauty shop, a library, and all kinds of activities going on. I have a schedule, and there are activities all day long. It's well worth the money.

It was my first tour and I would not recommend Avalon Park Retirement Residence to anybody. The whole thing was weird because I had an appointment. I got there and then the guy came out and he was showing me and my mom rooms with people living in the rooms. We didn't actually see a room that was vacant. One lady was in hospice and he brought us into her room. In my opinion you shouldn't be bringing people in there to look at her living space. It was just very awkward. Every room we went into was occupied and I asked if we could see a room that wasn't, and then he was like, "I can show you this one, they're not in there, they're at lunch right now." The whole thing was weird. The dining room that they had was very small. We went into a whole bunch of different bedrooms. They had two-bedrooms where you would have to split with somebody else, which is not a problem. It's just the whole experience was very awkward. The staff was nice, very polite, and answered any questions. I just think he should've been better prepared with appointments, showing us stuff that we could actually move into. I'm not even sure if they had anything available because I don't understand why he would show us rooms that people were in. He should have showed us rooms that were available.

Everybody was great at Presidential Place and answered all the questions I needed answered. They were friendly and nice to me. The person who gave me the tour was great. The layout and appearance was great and good. The rooms were nice and clean. I was just a little bit concerned about some of the nurses because they were a bit rougher than others. That kind of pushed me back a little because I want someone to take care of my mother-in-law like their own mother. I saw some activities like people watching TV. They were laughing and giggling amongst each other.

Presidential Place is the most suitable for my mom. The size of the apartment is good. They take good care of my mom. She gets three meals a day as well as medication management, which is good. They are providing good service and overall, we are satisfied.

Emerald Park of Hollywood was excellent. The place was great. It's also all inclusive. The apartments were excellent. I saw a studio apartment, and it's adequate and clean. The facilities were excellent. Emerald Park of Hollywood was my second choice. The staff members were very nice. They have small concerts. The day I went, they had music.
