    Review

    Shalom Elderly Care is a care facility that has received mixed reviews from individuals who have had loved ones residing there. One reviewer shares a distressing experience where the owner brought in her personal psychiatrist and prescribed anti-psychotic medications to their mother, "just in case." Unfortunately, this resulted in their mother experiencing incoherence and agitation on a daily basis. However, the reviewer promptly moved their mother out of the facility upon realizing what was happening, and she is now thriving in a new memory care community.

    On the other hand, another reviewer expresses gratitude towards Shalom Elderly Care for welcoming their mother with open arms after the passing of their father. They emphasize that all the caregivers are exceptional, displaying patience and kindness towards their loved one. The owner, Dina, worked closely with them to establish a network of support services, physicians, and home health options for their mother. As a result, they now feel confident enough to take a much-needed vacation.

    Another reviewer recounts a smooth transition when moving their aunt into one of Shalom Elder Care's homes. They praise Dina for her continuous involvement throughout the process, even visiting the hospital to guide them through discharge procedures and transportation to the home itself. Once settled in, it is mentioned that the caregivers at the facility have been loving and kind towards their aunt. They even invited her to join them for homemade pea soup upon her arrival and encourage socialization by inviting family members to enjoy cake and coffee together in the beautiful backyard.

    Overall impressions of Shalom Elderly Care seem positive thus far based on these reviews. The environment is described as clean, quiet, peaceful - an ideal setting for elderly individuals seeking quality care. It appears that Dina goes above and beyond to ensure families feel supported during their loved ones' stay at one of her facilities.

    However, it is important to note that there are conflicting experiences shared by reviewers regarding medication practices. While one review raises concerns about excessive and inappropriate usage of anti-psychotic medications, no other reviews mention this issue. It is crucial for families considering Shalom Elderly Care to thoroughly research their medication policies and communicate openly with the staff to ensure the proper care for their loved ones.

    In conclusion, Shalom Elderly Care has received both positive and negative feedback from individuals who have had loved ones in their facilities. While one reviewer experienced distressing medication practices, others express gratitude for the warm welcome extended to their family members and the excellent care provided by the caregivers. Ultimately, families should carefully consider their options and communicate openly with the management to make an informed decision about placing their loved ones in elderly care facilities.
