Central Parke was a very nice place. It's very good. They've got nice people. They showed me the memory care area, and it looked very nice. They had a common room and nice dining areas. They have everything you can think of. It's clean, very nice, very organized, very professional, and very caring.

Central Parke Alzheimer's Special Care Center is very well-designed to have comfortable spaces for people who are in different stages of the disease. The staff is very well-trained. They pay attention to my husband's history that we wrote up for him. They are trained and used Teepa Snow approaches to dementia care, so my husband responds as much as he can positively. They also care about the family members of their residents. He has a really nice room and it's well-appointed. The facility is only three years old, attractive, up to date, and the atmosphere is pleasant. There are several places where they have activities, including the dining room, and they have a separate activity room. They vary what they offer and the activity staff walks the halls and does different things with them. My husband isn't big on activities, but they reach out to him to engage with him. There's a fantastic guy who plays the piano and sings, and this past week he had a wonderful concert. He engaged with the residents and they thoroughly enjoyed it. They were singing along and my husband was able to sing "Take Me Out To The Ball Game." It was great. The meals are great and well-presented, but once in a while there will be meat that's a little tough. They serve them on red Fiestaware plates and they also have place mats. It's the nicest and it worked out well. I would recommend it.

There is no place like home. This is so true of this place. My Mom has been here for almost 2 years. She has had the best life. I am a nurse and have seen the best and worst of humanity. I have never seen a group of people advocate for a resident like the staff here. My mom has a life she gets to go on outings. She has feed ducks, been to farms, restaurants, fire station, animal shelters and other cool places. I stopped in one day to the activity director taking the residents on an impromptu trip just because. The activity director is the best I have ever seen. The staff take pride in their job and handle issues with creativity and brilliance I would never have thought of. The nurses know my mom and know just what to say to comfort and redirect her. I have seen staff hugging my mom when she cries holding her hand and walking down the hall with her. It was very hard to place my mom in memory care but when I come see my mom thriving it makes me happy. I am very grateful to Central Parke for taking such great care of my mom.

Hi, the community is very neat and clean, everyone working here is very nice! I felt very welcome when i visited the community. The staff is helpful , very caring, This is a great place!!

I can not say No enough! When we first came into this facility last year we had different management. In our almost 2 years there management has changed drastically. In the last year alone we are on our soon to be 4th Administrator, 4th front desk billing person, 2nd head nurse, 4th Maintenance person, 5th Chef, 3rd sales person. They only original people are the activities director and one caregiver. The care staff , housekeeping, staff on the floor is great - they go above and beyond to help my loved one feel at home and make sure they are taken care of, However they are always short staff and the change over is absurd. My loved one does get to go on the outings almost weekly and is busy with activities. The activity director evens lets me face time my loved one when i travel. I just don't like the fact that every time i come in there is new upper management and the people they put at the front desk are rude and condescending when i ask about the bill. i am hoping to find a community with a little more stability. If this place could retain staff i would consider staying and changing my rating.

We were quite impressed with Central Parke. It was a well-maintained facility that looked like it had good care. It was clean, and the people were well cared for. The rooms were bigger than most other apartment rooms and there were plenty of secure walking areas inside the facility, which is what we were looking for. The grounds were beautiful, well-maintained, and in a protected spot where you knew the person could be cared for.

This is actually a new facility about a year and half old. My brothers, father and I looked at this facility for my father. It is in a very nice part of Mason, Next to a fire station and rehab facility. There are planned activities through out the day for the residents. Staff can be seen interacting with the residents, and residents were also noted to be around the facility. It was literally a coin toss as to where we finally chose for my father to become part of the community. Central Parke set the Standard for the other 3 places we visited.

Central Parke is a beautifully kept facility and shows well on a visitor tour as staff and residents are placed to make sure of a good 1st impression. Of course, this means what you see during a tour may be different than what you experience with a loved one as a resident. This is truly independent living as residents are not watched and caregivers are not spread out throughout the facility. Caregivers will be sure basic needs such as showers, meals, etc are met. Nurses will make sure meds are taken. Housekeeping needs improvement as laundry, sheets, room cleaning, and toiletry stocking is not consistent. The published activities calendar is more marketing than accurate, but there are a few things for residents to do each weekday. After 5pm weekdays and most weekends, its rather quiet with little going on. Meals seem to be liked by the residents and there are several snacks through the day. While they market how “active and engaged” residents will be, there is a lot of down time, especially for those more cognitively impaired. For those that can go out, there is usually a once or twice a week outing. The outside courtyard, while accessible, is not used much. In closure, Central Parke is what I’d call an average facility with potential. It is under new administration, so improvements may be forthcoming.

Central Parke was very nice, and I would have liked that, but the price was way too high. They needed to put a curtain between the beds in the semi-private room. They showed me the semi-private and the private rooms. The staff was friendly. They had meals, activities, and different doctors that came in. They had a living room in each area for watching TV. They had a common area and two activity rooms.

My Mother has been this this facility almost a year and I am extremely disappointed. Too much change in staffing, I have communicated my concerns with Corporate and nothing seems to help. The admistrator dismisses family members and basically wants family members to stay out. This will NOT happen in my case!!!!!!! The fantastic caring staff are ignored by Administration, as they do not have same dislike for the residents or family members. We are looking for another facility, however changing may not be the best thing to do for my Mother. As POA and Advocate I wish I felt comfortable with this facility, but I do NOT!!!!

Central Parke Alzheimer's Special Care Center is new. They’ve only been open since August, and it’s beautiful. My mother has only been there since Sunday, but I’m very impressed; it’s impeccable. The rooms are beautiful, and I like the fact that she has her own bathroom that has a shower in it. A lot of the Alzheimer's units have community showers, and I think that takes some dignity away.
