Arden Courts of Delray Beach

my friend was at Arden Courts for 4 years. I was with her everyday and really got to know the caregivers and staff. they are all very professional and helpful. no facility is perfect, but Arden Courts in Delray Beach does a fine job.

After spending 2 years of being a part time care giver, we found Arden Court. There are no words that I can find to accurately describe my feelings for this facility. The staff is the friendliest and they make you feel like family. No request has ever been declined. The facility is always clean as are the patients. My loved one was very fussy about food. Not one word against the facility menu had been uttered. Arden Court makes my life Fabulous.

I am very grateful that my mom spent her last months at Arden Courts with [name removed] and her team. Prior to moving my mom to Arden Courts I toured a number of facilities., some recently built…all new and shiny…but they couldn’t compete with the warmth I found when I walked into Arden Courts. I knew almost immediately that I had walked into the right place. [name removed] guided me through some difficult months and unfortunately I didn’t reach out to her when I should have. My mom had lived elsewhere and I never felt I could talk to someone. The exact OPPOSITE was true at Arden Courts. In fact, [name removed] scolded me for not reaching out to her on a weekend when I was distraught and thought I had no one to reach out to about my mom’s healthcare. [name removed] is the heart and soul of Arden Courts and I am grateful for all those who work there and cared for my mom. My major regret is that I didn’t move my mom there sooner.

I really liked this place. I felt like the staff was very genuine. I felt like my dad would do well there.

During the pandemic, we chose Arden Courts of Delray Beach, which we signed up for sight unseen. The staff was sweet and wonderful with us and mom. Her last 6 months were very comfortable and happy. They facetime us weekly so we were able to see and talk to mom. We are sorry we didn't find Arden Courts sooner. Thanks to the wonderful staff, you are angels.

My mother was admitted to Arden Ct. 4 years ago with early to middle stage Alzheimer’s. She was never formally diagnosed, but presented with signs of short term memory loss and behaviors that were beginning to cause endangerment to herself and others, i.e. leaving the water running, taking aimless walks in 90 degree weather and getting into a car with strangers. She was careless with money and angry at having an aide in her home. Upon entering Arden Ct. she was quite angry with me, but thanks to the staff, mom acclimated very well within 1-2 weeks. I must give credit to the facility’s Executive Director, [name removed]. She has been incredibly helpful and supportive for me and for my mom’s success. I don’t think mom’s initiation would have gone as smoothly without her assistance. Throughout these past few years, mom’s shown much deterioration from the disease, but [name removed] has always been able to explain the process and normalize my fears and feelings. The staff has always shown their care for mom and all the other residents with warmth, patience and tenderness. In addition, they have a wonderful activities director and their medical personnel are always attentive and ready to respond. It has given me much relief to know that mom has been cared for in the way that I would have cared for her, had she lived with me. When I look back at all the choices, I know without a doubt that I made the right choice placing her at Arden Ct. Memory Center in Delray Beach, Fl. I had visited flashy and impressive looking facilities, but the smallness and warmth of Arden Ct. along with the knowledge that the building was designed for the Alzheimer patient in mind, convinced me in my decision.

My father [name removed] was diagnosed with the early onset of Alzheimer’s at the age of 74. He lived for 19 years since that diagnosis, the last 2 years of his life at Arden Court in Delray Beach. The director [name removed] and all the caregivers at Arden Court were so wonderful and attentive to my dad. Before the quarantine I was able to visit my father everyday if I chose to, he was always well groomed and neatly dressed...and loved his meals. [name removed] contacted me during the onset of the quarantine and asked about weekly FaceTime visits with my father. I was so happy for that even though he had been declining rapidly from his Alzheimer’s disease, and the disease had taken away his ability to recognize me, he was still sweet and in good spirits when we were on FaceTime. The last FaceTime call I had with my father was 3 days prior to his passing away. I was with my little grandson and he said “hi poppa, although my dad had no idea or understanding of who we were he sat there looking at the FaceTime screen smiled and said “cute”. He recognized that this was a sweet little boy who said Hi Poppa. I was so happy for that FaceTime on that day to see my father smile at his great grandson who he didn’t even know because daddy passed away 3 days later. I’ll always have that memory ... Thank you [name removed] and all of the wonderful caregivers at Arden Courts who worked so tirelessly, and helped imprint that wonderful memory in my mind forever and taking such wonderful care of my beloved daddy as he will always be to me.

I "visited" this facility during the pandemic. I wish I could have seen it in person, but I could not. Everything that I saw was wonderful. I spoke with sales and also the ED, who were very knowledgeable. I am looking for a place down the road, and this will probably be my go to place for my mom.

I have him in there I like it a lot, it's just that he has fallen a couple times at night out of bed, so I am working on that. It's well staffed, clean, and I do like it. He comes from having 24 hour care, so it is a little different over there. I did hire an aide to sit with him at nights on the weekends, which is kind of a waste of money, but the problem is that if he has to get up to go to the bathroom, he needs someone there. I am a nurse myself and I know how night shift on the weekends goes - it's tough. They have been very, very helpful and gone out of their way. They have done a lot, and I think that they are very good.
