    Review

    Taking care of elderly parents who have Parkinson's disease and dementia can be a challenging task. As their health care demands grew beyond my capabilities, I knew I needed to find professionals who could provide the same level of attention and care that I would. That's when I discovered Alma Residence, and I am writing this article to give you the utmost confidence in choosing Alma for your family.

    One of the standout features of Alma House, which is run by Carla and her husband Cesar, is the family environment they create. Direct communication is encouraged, with the ability to make phone calls at any hour. This open line of communication allows for immediate and honest discussions about the needs and concerns related to your loved one's care.

    What sets Alma Residence apart is its consistent, professional, and loving staff who have been working there for years. The small operation allows for a close-knit community where staff and residents form strong bonds, akin to a family. This closeness naturally leads to genuine concern, attention, and love being showered upon the residents.

    Carla, as the owner and a healthcare professional herself, personally attends to each resident's needs. Whether it involves liaising with family members or coordinating with hospitals, hospice services, or doctors, Carla ensures that all necessary measures are taken to meet the family's needs. Her motto reflects her dedication - "I don't want any of my families to worry. This is my job."

    I can confidently say that Alma Residential care center was exactly what we were looking for when my mother became their first client. The facility itself is clean, roomy, and equipped with great upgrades. The staff pays meticulous attention to detail and keeps families informed about any changes concerning their loved ones' well-being. Their guidance in navigating through the complex medical system has been invaluable.

    Carla's hands-on approach as a nurse is truly remarkable. Together with her gentle and caring staff members, they have made my 97-year-old father happier in his new home than he was with one-on-one care in his previous residence. His room is always clean, and the quality of food served at Alma Residence is excellent.

    In conclusion, Alma Residence stands out as an exceptional choice for families seeking high-quality care for their loved ones with Parkinson's disease and dementia. The family-like environment, experienced staff, and Carla's personal involvement ensure that every resident's needs are met with utmost attention and professionalism. If you have any questions or need assistance during this challenging time, feel free to reach out to me. Choosing Alma Residence will bring peace of mind and the assurance that your family member will be well taken care of.
