Review for Parkplace Retirement Living

Parkplace is a very close, loving, helpful, professional place to not only live, but visit. The staff is very caring and truly love what they do! They make people laugh and smile because they are always happy and smiling. It is definitely a family atmosphere at Parkplace! My Mom has not been this happy in years- I am very, very thankful for everyone there and for ALL of their efforts! I can rest easy knowing that my Mom is not neglected.

Mom is thankfully a "new' person since moving here!

It is absolutely wonderful! My mom has not been this happy, and well, in years! I would reocmmend to others. The staff is kind, caring, funny and available! If they see that my mom is stressed, not feeling well or they are concerned, they contact me immediately and also help her work through things....they are family

Would Recommend

All staff I dealt with were pleasant and helpful. To be fair I did not ever see the facility but my sister visited mom several times and did not see any problems and in fact staff frequently helped clean her room which wasn't part of the services they provided. Overall ownership/management and other staff were helpful and friendly. There were some issues with some of the late night weekend staff when we were trying to get in contact with mom after her cell phone broke and we were trying to get her a replacement but…

I visited this facility

We go to Parkplace Retirement Living for entertainment, and sometimes we would do Christian music, sometimes not Christian music. They do have a cafeteria, and they provide meals for the residents. The individual apartments have the stove, a refrigerator, and a little kitchen, but they still come down to the cafeteria for their meals. We have eaten there several times, and their food was absolutely excellent.
