Please accept this sincere, albeit overdue, thank you for the unfailingly, excellent quality of the care and support provided to my father, Edwin. C. Lee, during the approximately three years he fondly called the Clark's Terrace at the Park Danforth home. From the first day the now-retired Anne and Barbara escorted dad and I on a tour of the unit, to the morning in this winter when Jason called to inform me that my 95 year old dad had died peacefully in his sleep, the resident-centeredness of the staff couldn't have been more apparent. I will never forget how Lynn took dad under her wing on Day 1 in July 2021, spending time to get to know dad during his first meal at Clark's Terrace, and making sure he received a large slice of pumpkin pie for dessert after a delicious meal. Unfortunately, I remember faces more easily than names as I enter my own 7th decade, and I apologize in advance for failing to remember the names of so many important individuals who helped support dad. Lynn, Jenn, Kris, and Gloria still come quickly to mind for their unfailing patience and support for dad, but there were so many others as well. I owe your former Executive Director, Denise Vachon, a debt I will never be able to repay, as Denise, a great friend and (at the time) neighbor, is the individual who suggest we consider Clark's Terrace at Park Danforth when it was determined dad no longer required the rehabilitation and nursing level care he had been receiving at a local rehabilitation facility. I visited with dad 2-3 times per week during his three years at Park Danforth's Clark's Terrace, and dad unfailingly emphasized how much he enjoyed living there, and the caring and competence of the staff couldn't have been more obvious to me. Best regards, Jeff L

All activities schedules ought to be put in one place not as it is now. Now there is a Life Enrichment Program Schedule, there is a Residential Services Schedule, there is a Maintenance of Building Schedule, there is a TV screen viewing schedule. Someone should be in charge of putting all these activities in one place for viewing especially for the new comer. If one of these activities get changed LOOK OUT it may be posted in the elevator, posted out side of meeting space, shown on TV but probably not where you may expect to find the change. It is a good problem to complain about------THAT"S IT !

The Park Danforth is a magical place. For nearly a decade now, I have had the privilege of sharing in the lives of so many wonderful people during my daily work with our residents alongside a very talented, dedicated, and compassionate team. After the first 6-months, I told my husband the honeymoon-period never ends, it is simply the very best community for staff and residents alike. Everyone genuinely cares for each other, checking-in often to share daily smiles, well-wishes, and a listening ear. So grateful to have The Park Danforth in my life!

This review is for Clark's Terrace, the assisted living floor of Park Danforth. My father moved in last week, and I was so impressed with how helpful and friendly staff were. We had to manage a lot of paperwork and logistics, and they anticipated problems and solved glitches on the spot. Staff also work to create a friendly environment where residents feel like they are at home. It's difficult to move into assisted living, and they made it so much easier.

My Mother made the choice about 4 years ago to move into the independent living apartments at The Park Danforth. From the moment we toured she knew this would be a great place to live. She cancelled all other appointments and made this move. The apartment was spacious for her. She was able to continue her lifestyle , just on a smaller scale. The social activities and availability are numerous. Access is fantastic throughout the facility. It feels safe. There is also covered parking available to those that live there. The staff are thoughtful in the work that they do with your loved ones at Park Danforth. I am forever grateful that my Mom made the choice to live there. If you or a family member are thinking about making this choice please reach out and check them out. It is worth it.

It's so easy to give 5 stars to The Park Danforth! It is a special place for both residents and employees. I have worked at The Park Danforth for 6 years as its CFO. This organization genuinely cares from the Board of Trustees who guide its not-for-profit mission, to management and staff who serve its residents every day. Coming to work at The Park Danforth means seeing residents enjoying their lives, no matter where they are in the journey called aging, and working with employees who embrace serving residents with open hearts. Come and visit us to learn what it means to live and work here!

My mom decided to move here years ago, and she lived in an apartment until we had to move her to Clark's Terrace (assisted living) on the 2nd floor. She selected Park Danforth, just in case she needed AL. Good idea mom! This is one of many reasons to select PD. The other reasons include the residents (who are wonderful and make great table mates at dinner each night), the accommodations (the apartments are well designed and easy to furnish and navigate), the overall facility (is well maintained and the common areas are comfortable for socializing or just reading the paper), the social offerings (local shopping trips, onsite movies and games, and holiday family dinner) and most importantly the staff (there is low turnover, they are like family to my mom, they are knowledgeable, well trained, informative and caring - even the chef knows my mom's name!). I've spent many, many hours vising my mom and her friends at PD. This was our last month at PD and I will miss the staff and residents. Thank you Park Danforth- you are an important part of my family's story. Cheers!

I've worked at The Park Danforth for a very long time, and I've never worked in another place that was so caring and shared so much love. I would recommend TPD to anyone looking for a place to live or a job.
