I take them (separately, each has a full day of my time) to their doctor's appointments, shopping, to the hairdresser and always to lunch. I try to get them out of their houses to see life outside their four walls. Sometimes we just go for a drive, to the Wetlands or Point Fermin or any number of other places. Knowing these two women has enriched my life. I have become their friend. Since it is a volunteer position I do not get a salary per se but I am becoming a very rich man I n other ways. I love giving back, being of service to people who need assistance and I love the way it makes me feel about myself. And it's really a lot of fun. If you are retired and need something to do to feel good and productive as I did I highly recommend this wonderful program!

They are sincere in their intentions and really do put the residents and their quality of life first. Though I don't know the staff personally I can tell the owners are committed to care and compliance. This is what you want in a good RCFE. Going through placement of a loved one can be an emotional roller coaster. I've seen the worst come out in some family members when mom or dad start to decline. Sadly, it's a common trend to blame others when they can't regain original conditions of health in said loved ones. I would place my own mom here. I recommend Mom and Dad's House to everyone and feel 100% confident in the administration as well as the sincere intentions of the incredibly experienced owners.

We were totally blessed that we used them during our difficult times. Their prices are great because they use a sliding scale depending on the number of hours which really helped us a lot.

I purposely visit patients at different times because it is very important to observe as many staff as I can because it allows me to observe how my patient is cared for in different situations. This home is warm and inviting. Current staff, Tatiana, Dawn and Naelli treat all residents with love and respect. Patients aren't rushed to get into the shower, moved around roughly in bed when getting undergarments changed or given large mouthfuls of food when being fed a puréed diet. I can ask a question and if they don't have the answer, they will get the answer. They call me before a medication runs out/expires. They will let me know if there is a change in a resident's behavior, appetite or an issue with skincare. I have had a patient here for almost six months. No skin breakdown. The staff accepts suggestions. This is a very secure home for family members who have dementia. I recommend this home to families who want caring staff taking care of their loved ones. Lilian, administrator, is an RN who is a "hands-on" owner. When looking for a home for a loved one, this is very important. She welcomes suggestions and is available by phone if she is not onsite.

My highest recommendation and gratitude to Fleur De Lis.

I recommend Fleur de Lis to anyone who needs home care!…read more I worked as a case manager and recently had a patient who was getting discharged from a hospital and needed assistance ASAP. Fleur de Lis came to the assessment with a caregiver already in tow, and then delivered both the patient and caregiver to the patient's residence on the same day. Granted that the case was near their office in Lakewood, but I'm sure that still meant a lot to that patient! I have referred Fleur de Lis to a number of patients who require extra care. The owner and managers respond to inquiries fairly quickly and the patients seem satisfied with their caregivers. Most of all, they make access to caregivers possible by charging based on the hours and level of care required, which can help out a lot of families. Thank you!!
