My mom was a resident of Elim Park. It was a pretty nice place, it was clean, well kept up, and friendly. When my parents were in their living quarters they had a lot of friends and people were nice to us when we visited. They had a dining area where they had their meals, they had a church that was in the community, different activities they could do, and different places they could go. We could also eat there, and I thought their food was pretty good. It seemed to me that they raised the prices quite a bit, and I wasn't too happy about that. Some of the residents were not too happy about the upgrades and didn't think they were necessary.

Elim Park Place is extremely nice, extraordinary, and high-end. It is very expensive. It has everything and anything you would need. There are three or four restaurants and some cafes. It's a very large place.

I stayed in the rehab section and found the nursing staff, physical therapy staff and nursing aids to be professional as well as kind and caring. The food was delicious and varied and the wait staff pleasant and accommodating. The newer section is definitely more attractive and functional than the older section, but I certainly would recommend Elim Park as a great place for rehab.

I visited Elim Park Place. I had lunch there and it was very good. The place was very clean and looked very well organized. The grounds were very pretty and very nice. I was visiting someone who is in an independent living facility, but there was assisted living there also. We toured the whole facility and had lunch in the main dining room. I was able to see a big part of the whole place. It's very nice. The dining room was nice and the folks serving the food were very friendly and very polite.

From the outside it is beautiful but rehab care is way below average. My mom went in for rehab and during a PT session a brace was put on her leg and it pinched behide her knee. She reported it to the nurse which was a total waste. During one of her doctors appointment a blood clot was found. She was put on blood thinners and remained on them until her death. Nursing staff was not compassinate. Head over PT rushed her out after the injury to knee after telling us a week before at family meeting she would be there at least another 2 weeks. Within 2 days after injury she was discharged. Not impressed at all with them. Everything that looks like gold is not always the real thing! Disappointed to say the least.

My mother was in short term rehab at Elim Park. Upon the initial visit, all seemed fine, but I was greatly disappointed with the care. My mom was fairly self sufficient, only needing a short stay... thankfully. If she was unable to advocate for herself while I was at work I would not have left her there past the second day. The doctor, who never even saw my mother for her entire stay changed heart medications and dosages from what was provided in the hospital. She went into AFIB one evening and asked for a nurse to come and take her vitals, unfortunately it was during a shift change, so she want seen for over an hour. The facility does not offer a "low salt" diet. Patients are told they need to monitor their own salt intake and that toast can be provided if they are worried that no item on the menu has reduced salt. Even getting to see a nurse practitioner is a two day wait... The rehab portion is helpful, but the healthcare monitoring is simply scary. I would never recommend Elim Park for someone who needed medical monitoring.

My dad was at Elim Park Place three years ago. They’re accommodating. He was in the independent living. They fed him and they housed him, but he had his own apartment and he comes and goes as he pleases. He was in a beautiful apartment. It was a two-bedroom with latest appliances and kitchen. He had two bathrooms. It was like a house all on one floor. The food was fine. They only provided one meal a day. They had all sorts of activities. You can be as busy as you want to be. They had everything from swimming to games to movies to bus trips, so it depends on what you’re into. Most of the people from his church had gone there, so he had known most of the people. Also my wife’s mother was there for 10 years, so we were familiar with it. The facility was all connected so you can go from point A to point B, and the layout was fine. You can go wherever you need to be under cover. They had underground parking as well.

Independent Living is good here, however I do not like how the staff treat the residents staying. I walked in the dining room with my mother and there was absolutely no chairs when I asked someone to get one they were too busy. Residents should come first

CNA staff was superb. They were as attentive as possible to my needs. The nursing staff was frustrating. Medications were not given in a timely manner, or were not available or were of such poor quality they made me sicker than when I was admitted. No amount of pleading changed anything. They refuse to allow my PCP call them nor would they contact him for clarification. I was given unnecessary tests with questionable results. If you decide to use their services, make sure another person the patient trusts keep a constant eye on what is happening.

It looks nice. They spend a lot of money on window treatments, making the dining room look fancy, but ask to see "Long term care" if you go to visit (they don't volunteer that part), check that unit's Sunday night supper quality, and ask what dementia training specialties all the staff has. For an expensive place they often can only claim that they always meet the state minimum staffing requirements all the while charging well over the state average.Still, it is better than many.

Elim Park Place was a very beautiful facility but it was very expensive. There was an entrance fee just to get in and all other services were paid extra. The rooms were very nice. They had over 300 residents, so the ratio of staff to residents was not as good as where my brother lived. The dining room was like a five star hotel. It just was not a good fit for my brother.

I did visit Elim Park Place for my brother-in-law. The facility was just too large and mobility would be an issue here. We thought that it will be very difficult for him to maneuver around. It did have independent, assisted and skilled care. They pretty much have all in one. The staff was very professional. The rooms seemed nice. The activities looked like they were very good. They had the whole nine yards. They even had their own amphitheater. They had virtually everything, e.g. entertainment, outtrips, etc.

Elim Park is a beautiful and a very clean place. They are great and wonderful. Everything was good. The nurses were wonderful. The care, you couldn't ask for better. They were right there when you needed them. The food was good. The thing was my husband could not eat, but they did bring in food and I tasted that once in a while and it was good. I would recommend this facility to others.

If I had a choice to put my father in a facility, I would choose Elim Park but they are very costly. Their facility is outrageous. It's beautiful. They have a great reputation and what I like most about them is that they have a convalescent home, so he can just be transferred anytime he needs it. One of my concerns is the stability of the people working in a facility and I can see that their staff has been with them for about 10 years and that is important to me. I've talked to a couple of people helping the residents in cleaning and they were all very happy working there. I can't say anything bad about the place.

Independent Living Facility with attached Skilled Nursing Facility. Excellent Care as needed. Residents live independently in their own apartment, and can receive various assistance as needed ala carte (shopping, laundry, medication management). Nursing facility is in an attached building allowing spouse to visit without having to schedule transportation or go outside in inclement weather. Independent living charges currently are $2500/mo. plus any desired ala carte assistance. Nursing charges are currently $515/day. Fall 2012 rates.

I always enjoyed going to visit my grandparents at Elim Park. They had a very nice apartment, which was large enough for our family of six to visit comfortably. My grandmother was always happy to show us off at the dining hall, which served a very nice Sunday brunch. As my grandfather was dying, he was in the assisted living portion, which allowed my grandmother to visit him daily by just walking down, and not having to be transported to another facility. The staff were very caring and respectful to him and the family. After he passed, they were compassionate and supportive of my grandmother.
