Review

Esther's Place at the Park has garnered a positive reputation as a supportive and comfortable environment for residents, particularly for those like my mother who require a level 3 care facility. As I reflect on her experience over the past month, it is clear that Esther’s Place not only meets but often exceeds expectations in providing a nurturing and welcoming atmosphere. The facilities are thoughtfully designed to accommodate various needs, making them an ideal choice for individuals seeking assisted living options.

One of the standout features of Esther’s Place is its cleanliness and upkeep. The building consistently maintains a high level of hygiene, which is crucial for both residents' comfort and health. My mother appreciates this aspect immensely, noting that every area—from common spaces to individual rooms—reflects an attention to detail that enhances her daily life. With hardwood floors, cozy furniture such as an armoire and a comfortable chair, her room may be small, but it is warmly inviting and functional.

The facilities include essential amenities that contribute to a home-like feel. There is a sitting area perfect for social interactions among residents, along with kitchen access where meals are prepared with care. Most importantly, the dining area is pleasant, offering enjoyable food that many residents appreciate. In addition to everyday needs being met with quality service and nutritious meals, there are shared spaces like a deck and patio where families can gather or residents can enjoy fresh air—further enriching their daily experiences.

The staff at Esther’s Place deserve commendation as well; they have made quite an impression on me and my family through their attentive care and engagement with residents. Many staff members embody friendliness that fosters positive relationships with those they assist. Furthermore, the commitment of the two registered nurses (RNs) who own the facility adds tremendous value to its operations. Having over 25 years of nursing experience between them ensures that both medical needs and personal concerns are handled with expertise and compassion.

During times when COVID-19 restrictions were more lenient, the management took proactive steps by organizing activities for those unable to attend adult daycare programs—a thoughtful gesture reflecting their dedication to maintaining social engagement among residents during challenging times. This approach exemplifies how Esther's Place prioritizes not only physical care but also mental well-being through social interaction.

Overall, Esther’s Place provides a balanced blend of safety, comfort, professionalism, and community spirit that resonates deeply within its walls. As my mother's journey continues in this supportive environment, I find assurance in knowing she is cared for by people who understand her needs—and this brings immense peace of mind not just for her but also for our family as we navigate these changes together. Ultimately, if you’re looking for an assisted living option that feels like home while ensuring expert care from experienced professionals in an inviting setting—Esther's Place stands out as one of the best choices available today.
