The Gables of Palm Harbor

Lorraine

I thought it was fantastic. They have bingo, cards, puzzles, and a happy hour on Friday nights with live music (which I thought was nice). They have a library and a beauty salon. The rooms we saw were very nice, too. The place is on a beautiful lake. It has a gazebo with lots of walking trails, gardens, and nice outdoor space.

My mom has been in memory care. She is getting a high level of care because she got dementia and she can't walk. We've been pleased so far. I haven't had any issues. They have been very nice. They're very nice people to work with. They're very kind. I try to get there a couple of times a week. They all know my mom, and everybody really seems to like her. She's doing well there. They try to get her to participate in activities, but because of how she is, she doesn't really participate very much. However, she's out and about, and she can use her wheelchair and kind of move around with her feet. My mom has her own room. It's a private room. That's what was available when we wanted to get her in, and she's doing fine there. We like it. It's a very nice room. It has a window that's facing out a fountain, so she has a good spot. I've tasted the food, and it's very good. She goes straight for the dessert. The food is really good and very tasty. Then they provide snacks during the day like healthy snacks and juice, and she devours those. They bring my mom to activities. There's a puzzle on the table, but my mom doesn't do the puzzle. One day, though, when I came, they were doing bingo, and she was sort of participating with that. When I got there, I was helping her out and two other ladies. I went with her over to the assisted living side, and they had happy hour there. Of course, she had some wine, and so did I, and they had an entertainment, which was great. It was really awesome. It's quite beautiful. It's on a lake. It's separated into two different areas. You've got the memory care area and then you've got the assisted living on that side. On a memory care side, they have a dining room and a gathering area with tables and chairs, and then the TV area. They have an ice cream parlor area. We could go and walk around outside. There's a nice path outside with the trees and the view of the lake. It's very pretty. Sometimes they do sit outside as a group at a table with one of the nurses, and she does games with them. It's a big and nice area.

My husband is moving in. It was very clean, very professional, and it has colors that were soothing. The bathrooms were all wheelchair friendly. You'd be surprised how many bathrooms in memory care are not wheelchair friendly. My husband is in a wheelchair. I liked the size of the room, and the exuberance that the residents had over the food. It has beautiful grounds. They're getting in some outpatient physical therapy, which will do. I had a friend with me, and we both felt that it was a place you wouldn't be mad if somebody told you you had to go live there. I didn't get to try the food, but I heard how wonderful it was, and I saw the menus. They also have weekly excursions for the residents that want them. They they take you to your doctor within a certain number of miles. There are sitting areas outside where it's very beautiful, and they had raised beds for the residents to garden if they want to. They have beautiful dining rooms, much nicer than most of us have at home.

We chose here and love it. My mom is now living there and her one-bedroom is beautiful, very light and is the perfect size for her. The staff has been so accommodating and nice and anything she needs, they're right there for her. They have bingo, cards, acting, physical fitness, movie nights, music, little parties every Friday, and dinners. They take them out and keep them very busy. They also give physical and occupational therapy, and have a beauty salon. The food is delicious.

We walked into the lobby and it was gorgeous. They had steak for lunch, which was excellent. The girl who did the tour was wonderful. It was a beautiful community. We were able to sit with residents during lunch and ask them how they like it there. We didn't even have to ask but she showed me the hurricane windows, which were nice.

It was nice and clean. The staff was friendly. The rooms seemed fine, nice, and normal-sized. They weren’t big, but they weren’t small, either.
