Arden Courts A ProMedica Memory Care Community in Largo

I would give a five on all the above one through seven. The staff really take an interest in the clients and I'm very pleased with a place. My brother seems content too.

Mom’s home is a true oasis. The sprawling one-third acre of green space is a peaceful retreat. I'm continually amazed by the incredible sense of community and kindness here. Everyone is so welcoming, and Mom’s radiant smile is contagious. I am eternally grateful to A Place for Mom for guiding me through the process of finding the perfect memory care facility. Your support was invaluable as I visited various options in the area.

Not every place is perfect for every resident or family. One size does not fit all. This facility offers good workshops and info on dementia for caregivers. The staff is also loving and caring. There is not a lot of faith-based support, however. My advice... keep shopping until it feels right for you and your loved one. The concept of Memory Care appealed to me, as opposed to straight nursing care. The residents are treated with dignity.

It has been almost three weeks since [name removed] passed away but there is hardly a day that goes by when I don’t think of you, the people at Arden Courts. Why? Because you took such good care of my beloved husband. You were patient and kind, never mean or sarcastic. You tried to find activities to keep him engaged in life. You respected his worth as a human being with an incurable disease that could change his mood in an instant. You gave him love. You were also welcoming and comforting to me. Your cheerful hellos and smiles helped me enormously. Each time I came for a visit I didn’t know what to expect from [name removed]. I walked into the reception with apprehension and yes, sometimes fear. But you helped me meet those fears and spend treasured times with [name removed]. You were always available to answer questions. I am so impressed with the focus of your organization to provide outstanding care for people with memory loss. I hope your model will continue to expand to many other states.

It is always clean and there is never that foul smell that is often associated with care facilities. The staff is super friendly, always helpful and have become like family. My dad who is not the easiest resident seems to trust and like them! Dad is always in clean clothes. He sees a doctor or nurse whenever needed. He has regular haircuts. The meals are amazing! As are the desserts and snacks which are dispensed often. The chocolate chip cookies are awesome. Dietary restrictions are, of course, monitored. However, posted on the inside of the kitchen cabinet are non-medical preferences like [name removed] doesn't like fish, [name removed] likes mustard on his burger rather than ketchup, etc. There is respect for the individual. There are activities in the morning and the afternoon. They range from balloon volleyball to [name removed] playing the piano to an Elvis Presley movie. There were also religious events for those who participate. if you don't want to go to an activity, you don't have to. Again, respect for the individual. I believe it is a good value for the money. Dad is very well taken care of and we take comfort that he is in good hands. Visitors can come anytime, they don't have visiting hours. We love how much freedom the residents have. You can get up in the morning whenever you want and they will give you breakfast. There are four different wings, each with a different theme and decor. There are only 15 residents in each wing, so the care is very personal. Each wing has its own living room and its own dining room, and is very homey.

The staff at Arden Courts in Largo are very caring and they treat the patients like family. They were very much appreciated. I would recommend this facility to anyone. Your loved ones will be in good hands.

The best comment I can make is that the staff at Arden Courts of Largo are WONDERFUL! They are caring and loving and know everyone by name. They also keep loved ones as informed or uninformed as you wish to be. This facility is a bit older than the other one we visited, but that gives it a charm and warm homelike feeling; less corporate and institutional. Their procedures however are top-notch. The landscaping and garden areas are beautiful! And the Montessori interior spaces are very well appointed. They help residents and visitors understand where they are in the building.

My sister made a quick move from TX to Fl to be closer to family. My BIL had been recently diagnosed with advanced Alzheimer’s. Within weeks, it was necessary to find long term placement. The second move could have been awful, but the staff helped/supported both with the transition. Five months later, i am still impressed!

My husband has been a resident for about 6 months. I continue to be impressed with the staff's care of him and responsiveness to my questions. Someone from the nursing staff is always available, as well as the administrative staff.

I find the over all cost high but in comparison to others it is average. So I can't complain but I can not say enough good things about Arden Courts. They are truly a Blessing for both my Mother and family.

I am unable to rate the meals and dining service since I never saw the meals and hubby could not rate them. Cannot rate with the activities since I did not see any. However, my daughter went the next day to pay them and saw a note on the door stating Respiratory Issues. Came down with severe cough and other symptoms that needed physician care and medication. Hubby had a cough, lost weight and was extremely weak. Had a hard time walking with a walker. He was there 10 days for Respite care.

I am very impressed with Arden Largo. It's set up like a home, not a large institution. Only 59 residents, split between 4 areas. My dad is in Cottage House, which is in its own separate wing with about 15 people. It has its own small dining area and a living room with a TV and fireplace. Linen tablecloths and regular silverware in the dining area, and the meals are plated individually for the residents' preferences--some like ketchup, some won't eat fish, etc.--it's very personalized. The activities directors are very lively, encouraging participation, dancing with residents, making it fun. Residents are fully dressed, clean, and free to wander the halls and visit other "houses" as it's secure without being institutional. The staff is extremely helpful and patient with residents and family.

We really like the care and compassion that comes from the staff but they could work on improving their communication with the family. Based on our experience so far we would recommend Arden Courts of Largo to other families.

We went with Arden Courts of Largo because they are specifically designed and trained for people with dementia. It really feels like a home here - it does not feel institutional at all. It almost has that elementary school feel about it. We have been very happy with our choice and would highly recommend Arden Courts to others looking for dementia care.

We have been very impressed with Arden Courts of Largo. It has been such a relief knowing our mom is safe and being well taken care of. I would rate Arden Courts a 5 across the board on all of those categories. With regard to value, I would note that it is more expensive than the other places we looked at, but I think it is a case of you get what you pay for. The peace of mind we have is well worth the money.

It has been good for my loved one so far. I'm confident in the staff and administrators who are there at Arden Courts. Even so, I would encourage families to be involved in the care for your loved one.

Arden Courts of Largo is very organized. They have 4 different houses and they are separated by the type of care that you need, it is a very home like setting. The menu has a lot of variety and they are chef prepared meals, I have eaten here myself and the food was great. My husband has his own private apartment and is happy and content. The residents all get along well, they seem to have a very cohesive group. They have great activities and they mix it up to keep residents engaged. It is a smaller facility and the staff make you feel like family. If you want to have lunch or dinner, they will set up a private table for you and your loved one. I did not expect things to be as good as they are. I cannot say enough good about them and I would definitely recommend them to others who are looking and already have.

We moved my Mom to Arden Courts of Largo and are so glad we did. Experiencing other Assisted Living Facilities firsthand, we were comforted by the feel and layout of the facility. When a loved one has special memory care needs, it’s hard to feel confident when choosing where they will live and who will care for them. ALL of the staff have always been supportive, responsive, and most of all are caring and loving, from the caregivers and nurses to management. They all seem like family to us now. Even with her medical difficulties, my Mom thrives at Arden Courts. The environment they create gives her a feeling of home. Their response and plan for the pandemic was reassuring even in these difficult times. We have no doubt the staff made their residents a priority with the way they have controlled the virus scenario. They truly take care of your loved ones as if they were their own. Arden Courts has been a blessing to my Mom and our family, we will be eternally grateful.
