MY Mom is currently in Rehab here. The Team have taken really good care of her. I had an uncomfortable situation that I needed help with. Guerline (Devla) and her co-workers were there for us and took care of the situation right away. NO DELAY! My Mom had a bad fall and fractured her shoulder, plus she has dementia. Devla has been so amazing with helping my Mom and we are so grateful! Eltha is another Nurse that has been very great and the head Nurse is Jean Carlo and he has been wonderful too.

My mother was released from delray medical center following emergency abdominal surgery at 89 years old. Initially we had some issues coordinating correct hardware but throughout my mother's stay of several weeks we found the nurses, caregivers and all help to be excellent. When you enter a room where your mother is being cared for and see a caregiver combing her hair and kissing her cheek...well I cant thank abbey Delray South enough. Beverly, Wesley, Delva, Athena, 6Belinda, Jean, Carmel especially!!!! All angels for the tough job they have, food could better though. First Rate facility AAA from security to wait staff...THANK YOU AGAIN ALL!!!! ™™™™™God bless you all. Mitchell Cornacchia

I have to say that Abbey Delray South didn’t know what they were in for when taking my mom into their rehab. She is a very difficult 91 year old lady. I was very co Verne that she would be kicked out. Well in comes the nurse Monique. Wow, what a breath of fresh air. I spent almost a half hour talking with her and trying to apologize for my mom’s actions. Monique was such angel. She smiled at me and said we got this. Monique explained everything to me. She continually reassured me of how they know how to deal with my mom. And deal she has. She has helped my mother with such professionalism and compassion. Between Monique reassuring me and seeing how she works from her heart and really cares, I know my mom is in great hands. Thank you Monique. You are awesome.

My Mom had a very positive experience with the caring staff at Abbey Delray South. The nursing staff is knowledgeable and kind, the aides strive to be gentle and friendly and the doctor (Dr. Exuma) is excellent. Physical therapy staff was awesome too - they went above and beyond to get my Mom back on her feet again. Thanks again and we will miss seeing your friendly faces everyday. ™’“ BTW, there is a beauty salon on-site and the girls were top notch. It was a nice added plus.

Mixed review - independent living apartments/homes vs. the Abbey Health Center... My grandmother lived in an apartment in Abbey South's independent living (unsupervised) housing for over a decade. It was a great experience and a good choice for a healthy woman in her 90s. Her apartment was bright and spacious. They repainted it every few years and re-carpeted it once. The weekly cleaning service was helpful. The community dining options are nice but pricey for the food quality. There are many opportunities for residents to participate in group exercise, lectures, art and writing classes. There's card games and visiting singers. The grounds and buildings are well maintained. My grandmother had a completely different experience once she transitioned to live in Abbey's Health Center. I was there almost every week to check on her. The staff is poorly trained. Many do not speak English well and they are constantly frustrated with the cognitive and hearing problems the residents have. There's only one real nurse (an RN) per wing, and she is overworked and has a terrible attitude all the time. There is a doctor on staff, but I never once saw him there. Many of the CNAs (certified nursing assistants) shuffle around slowly or are hanging out in groups chitchatting with each other and on their phones. My grandmother was often left unattended on the toilet, crying out for help. The staff would squeeze her arms to lift her from her wheelchair in a way that she said was uncomfortable, but they refused to change this lifting method. This facility needs better-qualified staff who are better trained to interact with disabled people and frail dementia patients. People in that profession should CARE more. These residents need lots of patience, empathy and kindness. This isn't like working at Denny's. The administrators are hired and fired or quitting constantly. In the 4 years my grandmother lived in the Health Center, I complained to at least 3 different managers/administrators, and nothing improved. I will say that the PT department is top-notch, and a few of the CNAs are caring women who take their jobs seriously.

My Mom has lived at Abbey Delray South for 25 years in her own apartment, with brief stays in the Health Center when she needed medical care. Over the years, I’ve visited Mom and Abbey many, many times, and I continue to be totally impressed by the professionalism, patience, and kindness of Abbey’s caregivers, administrators, and staff. The facilities are well maintained and upgraded in the living and recreational areas, and in the modern, smoothly-functioning Health Center. And I always enjoy a meal in the Dining Room when I visit. It’s a pleasure to recommend Abbey Delray South!

My mother had two stays with the Abby Delray South Health Center. Both times they exceeded our expectations and took excellent care of mom. She was the one after her second shoulder surgery asked me to make the arraignments for her to be admitted. The care of the nurses is top notch and the aids are very attentive to her needs. People usually complain about the food in services like this or hospitals but my mother was pleasantly surprised that, for the most part, the food was very good. They provide laundry services and have activities, if one would like to participate. We both would highly recommend Abby Delray South Health Center should you or your loved one be in need of recovery. Thanks again ladies! Mark and Shirley Z.

My husband was admitted to Abbey Delray South for physical therapy after discharge from the hospital. The transfer and admission was done with maximum efficiency. Once admitted, the staff could not have been more caring from the the dietary staff, to the aides (special kudos to Mykela) to the Director of PT, to Beverly, the Director of Nursing, to Kesler Thelemaque, the facility Administrator all the way up to Brad Bodie, the facility Director. I cannot speak more highly of this facility and would gladly recommend it to anyone requiring skilled nursing care.

My Mom had an extended stay here, just about 4 weeks. In that time, we have gotten to know every staff member, aid, nurse, administrator, and front desk person around every shift. This is an exceptional place for loved ones to strengthen and thrive as they recover from their medical issues. Firstly, it is very CLEAN. I was impressed at how tidy and clean my mom's room always was, as were the hallways, activity rooms, and dining hall. Tables had fresh tablecloths on them; every hallway had fresh water with fruit infusions and a sign explaining the health benefits (I loved these details). There were plenty of activities 7 days a week, including ice cream socials, animal therapy, movie nights, live music, drawing, etc. They try to engage their residents at all times. The rooms all had TVs. The aids showered the residents at least twice a week and they were cleaned and linens changed daily. The nurses really cared for my mom, always checking in on her, noting any changes in her mood or appetite. My Mom really enjoyed the food. and she put on some much-needed weight during her stay. My mom is being discharged tomorrow and is sad she is leaving (change is always difficult). I would not hesitate to send your loved ones here if it was necessary. I'd say the only note I can think of is there has to be an easier way, or more consistent way for residents to talk via phone or video to their family or friends if they struggle to use their phone. Maggie and Landy were just wonderful to us and so kind to my mom. They deserve special recognition.

Maggie has been one of the bright lights of my stay here at Abby South. she’s always ready to help and always with a smile. There is nothing I can ask of her that she doesn’t do it for me either immediately or as soon as she can, she is always ready to listen to me and to what I need and the same for my family as well. She is a hard worker. She’s always doing something either at her computer, or running around the building. It’s a pleasure knowing Maggie. I think she is one of the most valuable employees here for Abby South, and she always has the interest of not only the patients but the organization here as well. I think the organization here is very fortunate to have her on the staff. she is professional when she needs to be and warm and loving when that is needed as well. The other people on the staff here look up to her and what she brings to the team. She is a very valuable team employee and I think the team would miss her if she wasn’t here to bring that team spirit. she is exactly the one that you want on the front desk greeting people when they come in the door. When they meet Maggie they feel well. Here is where I want to be for my rehab. As a priest, for 50 years, I know that first impressions are usually lasting impressions Fr Don Milligan

My wife’s and I spent one summer visiting not-for profit retirement communities in central and northern Florida with emphasis on those situated in non-evacuation zones. We settled on Abbey Delray South, a happy retirement community set in beautiful grounds with many activities for members. We were struck by the friendly attitude of members. The facility consists of three high rise blocks containing apartments of three configurations and 45 Garden Homes. A Fitness Center, Card Room for daily games (Canasta and mahjong groups), an Auditorium where biweekly sanctioned Duplicate Bridge games, triweekly exercise classes, bimonthly trivia and Bingo games, and numerous monthly speakers from academia. There is an extremely fulsome weekly menu serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. We have a Resident Council with committees responsible for various daily needs of the community. We have an Executive Director employed by Lifespace Communities, a national organization managing 17 facilities. Their management structure is inverse to a normal one, in that the members have employed them to take care of them in their retirement years. Technically they should be responsive to any request from a member but on minor occasions they have chosen not to respond/react to requests. Finally, we have a five-star Health Center for members and the local community. This is a wonderfully adjunct for post operative rehabilitation but is does not handle memory-care issues.

Abbey Delray South provided outstanding care for my elderly mother after a fall. The staff was attentive, responsive, compassionate and caring. If I asked someone a question they would look for the person with the answer and return to inform me. I was called if there was a change in my mother s condition with information on how it would be addressed. Often she received therapy twice a day, and it was provided on Saturdays. Meals were tasty and her consumption was tracked. The staff at every level was conscientious, supportive, and friendly. Leadership and management are invested in their staff as employees obviously enjoy their job and take pride in their work. This is a benchmark facility and program. You can trust them to prove excellent care.

Abbey Delray South is an amazing rehab facility where my mom was treated after being released from the hospital after a 9 day stay. The care she received was superb!

I was admitted for a fractured femur. Put in a double room and did not see an aide or nurse for over 3 hours. I did not have any water or know how to operate anything. I was told I was going to have a private room when I left the hospital. I had to be very vocal to get one two days later The nurses were great. Every one of them was 5 star. However, if I pushed the button for an aide, I could sometimes wait 20-25 mins. This can be a problem if you must use the bathroom. I started taking myself after 8/9 days as I could not wait. Showers are twice a week, if you are lucky. I had one shower in 12 days. I was told I would have pt and ot for an hour each daily. I had a combination of both for 45-60 mins 5 days a week, 30 mins on Sat and none on Sun. There was a lot of sitting, 23 hours for 1 hour of theraphy. Not sure how other rehabs handle their pt. It is not on a schedule that the patient is aware of, they just show up. My assigned therapist was out one day, I did not have theraphy that day. I was not impressed w/how the facilty was operated. If you were not vocal, which many are not capable of, you probably did not have your needs met. I asked 5 different people to please find out when my followup was w/the surgeon. I finally found out they had not made the appt when I called myself to check on it. They had to take my stitches out at ADS as they could not stay in until my appt. My overall impression o the facility was mediocre.

My elderly mother was admitted to Abbey Delray South on Dec. 16th 2023 and remained at the rehab center for almost 11 weeks until the end of February 2024. She had broken her femur and after surgery needed extensive rehab with OT/PT. I can’t say enough about the staff (very loving and caring), and the nurses ( knowledgeable and attentive), at the facility. The PT/OT therapists were exceptional. My mother went from needing a Hoyer lift to get from her bed to the wheelchair to being able to walk short distances with her walker and propel herself in the wheelchair. My mother has now transitioned to assisted living. We visited every day of those 11 weeks to make sure my mother knew a family member was there to offer support and advocate for her well being and continued improvement. When the weather was beautiful, which was most days, we sat in the lovely outdoor courtyard area with my mom. They also had a great library with many large print books that my mother visited regularly. We even celebrated my mother’s 95th birthday at Abbey Delray South. We had use of their conference/family gathering room that we were able to decorate and bring food into for the celebration.

I was in Abbey Delray South rehab for the month in March recovering from a tennis accident. When I was wheeled in from Delray Medical Center hospital, my heart sunk. I thought I was dropped off in a third world country in a facility that should be condemned”shared old, dirty room and disgusting old bathroom in the Ashley section, a nightmare. An aide tried to transfer me from the wheelchair to the bed and the bed railing fell off. I had to wait in the hall till it was fixed. At 2:00am the admitting nurse came to see me and do an evaluation”at 2:00am! She said they were too busy to do it sooner. I was informed earlier that I’d be transferred to a private room because of my condition. It turned out to be a tale of two cities”I was in the old section that needed to be gutted and rebuilt then moved to the lovely section that was remodeled. What a difference”a large, pleasant private room where I could rest and heal unbothered in comfort. And the meals exceeded my expectations, they were varied and tasty. The administrative staff were all terrific. Barry, the new rehab administrator, was accessible, very helpful and kind. Everyone in physical and occupational therapy were caring, encouraging and a pleasure to work with to improve. Kudos to all the staff and nurses for being attentive, including my daytime aides. Like Delray Medical Center hospital with two wings, one new and one disgusting old--I feel if the decrepit section here can be torn down and rebuilt too, this would be a wonderful rehab facility. I had a taste of both to compare and luckily wound up on the good side of the tracks for a good experience.

My mother admitted with both a broken arm and a fractured hip. She was anxious about having to go to a skilled nursing facility initially, but her concerns were put at ease when she arrived. Upon admission the nurse and assistant, Mikayla made her feel welcome and answered her many questions.Her room was private and nicely appointed with a hospital type bed, bathroom and shower. She had a recliner in her room and a wheelchair for her use along with a couple of chairs for visitors. Everything was very clean. Her physical and occupational therapists were professional, efficient and super friendly. Most importantly they helped her to improve her strength, increase her mobility and taught her to be safe upon her discharge. The food was excellent. Everyday she had multiple choices for every meal and the option to eat in her room or in their dining room. Eventually she ate in the dining room and praised the staff, especially Michael. There were activities for her to participate in, and later in her stay she did enjoy a couple of those. The television in her room was a large flat screen... I didn't check how many channels but my mother said there were like a hundred and she was very happy with the choices. She was able to use her laptop and keep up with her bills and other activities using their Wi-Fi. My mother went from walking approximately 5 ft with a lot of assistance after her injury to walking independently with a cane over 200 ft and able to go home. Every person we interacted with on their staff was friendly and helpful. Choosing Abby South his was an excellent decision and I highly recommend anyone considering rehab or extended care services go here.

Update to previous review: The managers of Abbey Delray South have been in touch with both my aunt, the resident of Abbey and me. They have been able to get a working phone line in my aunt's room, after nearly two weeks without the ability to communicate with friends and family outside of Abbey Delray.

Assuring residents have a high quality of life during a pandemic must be challenging. While some 'pre-pandemic' activities must be modified or eliminated to protect the health and well fair of Abbey Delray's residents, access to communication (via phone or video conferencing) with the outside world shouldn't be something that is curtailed. My aunt has lived at Abbey Delray South for many years. My parents lived there before her. My aunt's medical condition has changed recently, which prompted her to move from independent living to the health center and now on to the assisted living center- where she has been for over a week without a working telephone or any other means to talk with family and friends from "the outside world". I have placed many calls to various personnel at Abbey Delray to try to get at least a temporary fix for my aunt. I have left two messages with the Exec Director. I spent many years as an Executive Director of retirement communities very much like Abbey Delray. When my parents and aunt were considering senior living options, I was actively involved in their search and we were all pleased with the choice to move to Abbey Delray South. Come on Abbey management- while staying connected with the outside world won't completely replace all of the activities suspended as a result of the pandemic it most certainly helps.

Abbey Delray was just what my elderly mother needed. Nice facility with great services including the meals. From our initial meeting with Robyn, through move in and her eventual death the guidance and support could not have been better. I might consider it for myself at a later stage of life (But remember to move while you are healthy to enjoy it all!) Everyone was kind and helpful, esp as she declined and became more forgetful. The team reached out to me to suggest additional nursing care and the Director, with family support, had the difficult discussion about stopping driving. Lead Nurse Care Coordinator Tudie-Ann Clarke and her LPN Lifespace Communities team were fabulous. Working with me long distance to get her the support she needed and accompany her to drs appts as needed and keep me looped in overseas. They went above and beyond when she passed. I am grateful to the whole team and can't recommend them enough.

My wife and I have just moved in to Abbey Delray South in the last two weeks. I admit to having doubts about this move before doing it. However, I know now that it was the right thing to do. The staff has gone overboard in making us immediately feel at home and fellow residents have been equally welcoming. In so many ways our lives have become more comfortable.

I came from New York 4 years ago and this was the best choice I ever made. Abbey Delrey South is the most friendly community yet having my own apartment gives me all the privacy I need. The services are exceptional. One phone call away and the front desk always answers your queries.

I have found the most warm, comfortable, and protective residence that I could have never imagined finding. After looking at dozens of residences, with and without family, I was thrilled to discover Abbey Delray South. The residents are so friendly and caring. I can choose to be as busy or relaxed as I want to be. I'm surrounded by wonderful, new friends. The staff is very kind and amazingly helpful.

We moved into a garden home 2 months ago. The staff has been superb. You can not ask for better assistance and attention to the needs of a new resident. My wife and I are very happy with our decision to come here. The facility grounds are outstanding, the programs for ones mental, physical and entertainment needs exceptional, and the food is well above average in presentation, variety and taste. .

I moved into Independent Living 6 weeks ago, and on my third day here realized what a good move it was. My apartment is beautiful--decorated entirely to my choices. The staff is pleasant and helpful. The residents are friendly, the food much better than I expected. The well tended grounds are spacious--lots of trees and grass and flowers. There's an extraordinary fitness program with many classes to choose from and a well equipped fitness center. I'm in better shape already. There are plenty and varied activities and a beautiful library.

Abbey Delray South is a wonderful community. Tudie Clark, LPN is dedicated, professional and reliable. She has been so helpful in assisting my mother who lives there and is always available for questions and concerns. It is comforting to have that support for your loved ones and I can't thank her and the staff enough for all they do. The entire community and its staff are amazing!

My 97 year old mother moved into Abbey Delray South a year ago and she loves it. On behalf of our entire family, thank you. We are impressed and grateful to you on all fronts - your facilities, grounds, food service and most importantly your staff, particularly Candy Cogswell who was the face of Abbey D to us as we went thru the application and move-in process. Her direction, on-going guidance, responsiveness, and follow-thru are commendable. Since her move in, Mom has made wonderful friends at Abbey Delray and is more social than she and Dad ever were at their previous home in Delray Beach. She loves it there and is very happy. Keep up the great work, and thank you.
