Emeritus at Carrollwood Community Testimonials

Community Testimonials

After taking care of my husband Ed for over 6 years at home, it became evident that i could no longer care for him at home. Family members, including our daughter, a doctorate of physical therapy, a son,an attorney and myself a registered nurse, we decided after many other places that Emeritus was the place for my husband, and father of our 5 children. We were thoroughly pleased with his care....the staff, including physical therapist, Kyle, and Cathy, the home health nurse were exceptional. The staff was wonderful, taking exceptional care of Ed, even his neurolist said it was the best place for him ..It was also close to our home.... All five of our children were delighted with his care and the care of Hospice. Would recommend Emeritus of Carrollwood for their care of my husband of 51 years !!!!!. Still involved with the facility as i consider the residents "my extended family". grateful for Emeritus and Hospice. rose brennan, R.N. , tampa, fl.33618 . rose brennan, R.N. tampa,fl. emeritus, carrollwood.

I noticed the very well cared for landscaping and beautiful building with plenty of parking for staff and visitors. When I went inside I was met by a very friendly staff member and was giving a wonderful tour of the facility. I noticed the large library, computer room, beautiful dinning room and the facility also offers a private dinning room for residents that wish to have family and friends join them for meals. The interior of the facility is beautifully and colorfully decorated and the residents rooms are all quite roomy with private bathrooms. This facility offers various activities for their residents, transportation to doctor’s appointments and also offers short term stays as well as long term. As I was enjoying my tour I noticed several of the residents along with a staff member outdoors caring for the plants and as my tour host advised me they offer gardening to anyone interested along with many other activities. The facility offers to their residents the choice of either studio, one bedroom or two bedrooms and each have a small kitchenette. This facility is very pet friendly as well.

My mother has been in Emeritus for over a year now and it is the third facility we have tried with her. Luckily, she loves living there and now our challenge is to get her to leave to take a short vacation or even an overnight trip. She always talks about all of the friends she has living there and how much she enjoys the food. When a better (in her view) room became available, we requested it for her and the staff was very accommodating: they explained the process, helped make the necessary arrangements, and most importantly were friendly as always. When we take her great-grandchildren for a visit, she lights up along with many of the other residents that live there. It is not a tired, old, and dank place to live, the people are pretty lively and all seem to enjoy their lives there. If we had one complaint, it's that she never wants to leave and she's always in a hurry to get back.

Staff is extremely friendly and professional. My father is getting ready to move in and Kristie and Kay have helped me with all of the paperwork and logistics step by step. Everyone at the facility greets you when you enter, residents seem happy and the facility is very clean. It made our decision very easy once we toured the facility and spoke to Kristie. We knew this was the right place for my father.

I live in Virginia. I was searching for my Aunt. The first thing I noticed about this property was how beautiful and clean the property was. I visited other facilities in Tampa as well. But, what stood out about this property was how helpful and informative the staff was. I mean they were truly as nice as they could be.
