Sky Park Gardens

My mother-in-law is at Sky Park Gardens. It’s close to her home, so it’s not in an unusual neighborhood for her, and the price was in her budget. They offered a really nice room, and I liked that we got to see the actual room that she would be in, we got to meet the staff, and chat with some of the residents. I think everything was open and above board, and I appreciated their honesty. They’re handling her wonderfully, she’s happy, she’s secure, she feels good, and the family feels good that she’s there and being taken care of.

Sky Park Gardens didn't smell all that good, but seems fine other than that. It seems a little disorganized, with lots of people going around because they're full. It's under new management as well if I remember correctly. Bob, the person who gave us the tour, was a very friendly and outgoing guy. We talked to some individuals who work there as we were going around, they were really nice, but I didn't see any activities for the residents at that time. They have a large square in the back for walking around. I've also seen the dining area and lobby area.

My mother-in-law has been at Sky Park Gardens going on three weeks now, and she’s doing great. I’m very satisfied with the facility. It’s an older facility, and it’s dated, so it’s not real easy on the eyes. However, the staff is just amazing, very caring, and very good about getting to know the patients, and made us feel very comfortable. The room is a good-sized room. The prices are one-set rate, unlike the other facilities that we visited, where the price went up depending on the level of care; so fortunately, it was affordable. Every day of the week, they have several different activities on the calendar, so they are keeping them busy, literally, all day, which is good. They do outings once a week. The first Tuesday of every month, they go to Walmart. The second Tuesday of every month, they go to the Dollar Tree, so although she’s not able to do some of the outings, they’re still there for the residents who can do them, and I think that’s great.

I visit this facility to see my mother, aged 98, every single day for the last 4 years, never missing a day. l cannot express in words the relief this facility and staff have given me by taking such expert, professional, and totally attentive care of my mother, satisfying my every request. I cannot express in words what this facility and its staff have done for my mother, and thus, myself. Suffice it to say I want to stay there with my wife when our time comes, which it will, I can assure you. Please e-mail me if you have any questions about this facility and its staff, all of whom I know personally, having, as I said, visited for an hour or more every single day for the last 4 years.
