10 Best Independent Living Communities in Millsboro, PA

The food is good. Help with showers due my disabilities is great. Place is warm in winter, cool in summer. Best is how nice the owners and their employee daughters are to all of us.

There are some marvelous things about Paramount, especially some of the nursing and aide staff. My Dad is paying for the highest level of care but at times it is understaffed and he has gone without showers (which are only twice a week to begin with). There is a man directly across the hall who screams "help" and various profanities almost 18 hours a day, disrupting the entire floor of residents and staff. At $[removed] a month my dad is entitled to a quiet place to heal and rest and he (and everyone else on the floor) is not getting it. No one in authority does anything to correct this deplorable situation. The facility is well-appointed and well-kept. It is decorated nicely for holidays, and there are some nice social events that include families. My dad needs a lot of encouragement to participate in activities and meet other residents and this doesn't happen. The Activities personnel do not have engaging personalities and don't reach out to him, even after being asked. Again, for $[removed] a month I expect more. I have no point of comparison to any other facility, but I would recommend Paramount with certain concerns.

Both of my parents lived in FV and now my dad is in the care center. The staff is wonderful. Kind, caring, and ready to undertake and unusual assignment that will help dad and his family. Here's what I sent to [name removed], a social worker at the care center. To explain, I live out-of-state and doing my dad's taxes can sometimes be a challenge. [name removed]: I would like to express my deep appreciation to you for your help in resolving my Dad's W-2 problem. It might seem as if you did very little, but I assure you that I, and Dad, are very, very grateful. Although I usually can't get him by phone, my mind is often comforted when I remember that caring, dedicated professionals like you are attending to Dad. Friendship Village is simply a wonderful institution and the reason for that is people like you who work there. I Once again, thank you sincerely from the bottom of my heart for your help.
