ABBA CARE ASSISTED LIVINGB

I don’t even know where to begin. As a daughter of a former resident, I adored this place for my Loved One. It is clean, everything is well kept, the care is of the highest quality, the food is great, and it is personal. Victoria asked my retired pastor Dad to step out of retirement to preach again at Abba Care giving him purpose; she encourages residents to continue to use their God-given gifts while they still can. Thank you Victoria, Vilma, Alloy, Tony, John, and the wonderful staff.

As my mom was getting treated for her leukemia, she had to admit she couldn't care for dad any longer. Sad day. We tried CCC for a weekend, and my dad made up stories of G-ma mob bosses. We didn't know who to believe. We were looking for a place for a permanent solution for his care. Dad's dementia was a challenge above any we could handle. We needed lots of help. That's when a friend from church mentioned her dad was almost 100 living at Abba Care. Yes, 100! A lot has to go right at a place to reach a century mark. Curious... We sent the family and extended family to check out the facilities. First thing we noticed? No smells. It actually smelled clean. The next thing we noticed was how intimate the setting was. Complete with a gazebo out back. But above all? Everyone was sooo friendly. Once we moved dad in, Abba Care workers went above and beyond with accommodation for dad. They helped him bathe and lent him some items as we struggled to get them off the list. Even let him use their bed and chair temporarily as we got the opportunity to furnish dad with these pieces of furniture. As dad ran into problems such as walking the premises late at night, we were not only informed, but they made alterations to keep dad safe. And offered suggestions to curb his excessive hunger. Abba helped us look for his missing glasses...hearing aides...at times searching through the trash. Also, Abba made sure he was up for all meals and center activities. They always knew how much dad loved his ice tea and dessert. Dad loved Chicken Foot Dominoes. At one time, I saw him manning 3 Bingo cards at once. Plus, dad loved to sing for them before spiritual activities. That gift gave him an identity on campus. When dad was flushing excess toilet paper down the commode, they held his TP to divvy it out only as he needed it. They also helped us keep him from hanging up dirty clothes by controlling his hamper. Even more convenient, Abba staff got his prescriptions delivered directly to them and switched all his docs to those who visited Abba Care regularly. In addition, Abba has a barber come in monthly who you can pay in advance. So, there's no reason why my dad would need money anytime. In short. Abba Care became a one-stop shop for our dad! Abba was open to visits of dad at any time we needed to see him. It's just a simple sign in/sign out process if we ever needed to take dad on errands or trips. Also, Abba cared for dad. He was seeing a PT too. They were exercising him daily. They even got to where they spoon-fed dad. They were quick to call medical 911s as dad choked a couple times. Important too was the TV. Abba's handyman helped dad program and reprogram his TV. Hitting the wrong remote button can be a disaster for the elderly. Abba makes sure remotes are taken care of in case they press the C-span button! I don't have enough space left to cover all Abba Care and its staff did for my dad. Thanks, everyone. As my brother Marty called it, it wasn't a nursing home. My brother called Abba Care "the lodge". I'd like to add, the lodge that became my dad's second home. Thanks again, Abba Care!

Wonderful facility with wonderful, caring people. I cannot say enough about how kind and caring everyone at Abba was during the last few weeks of my mother's life. I would heartily recommend them to care for a loved one.

Abba Care is a true 100% GOD send for my mother and my family ,,,, The individual care is exceptional and extremely loving while still being very professional . My mother has been there for 6 1/2 years and the staff goes way beyond what ever is required of them to be helpful caring and loving to all of the people who live there. The food is extremely high-quality and the atmosphere is one of peace and love. I don’t believe there could possibly be a better place anywhere in the Dallas area .

in September of 2017, my husband and I moved his elderly father to Abba Care from another facility where he had lived for 6 years. It was night and day experience and our only regret was that we had not considered Abba Care earlier for his care!! The nursing staff is wonderful! The food delicious! Most importantly the care is consistent and very in tune with dad's daily needs. Vilma and Victoria truly care for their clients. Dad has gone from wasting away to thriving. Abba Care has been such a blessing to our family and has given us peace of mind.
