The facility is clean and bright. The staff is friendly and caring. They are very gentle in their interactions with my mother who has dementia. They are warm and extremely helpful for family members who struggle to walk through this kind of life-changing event. My mother is safe and well cared for at The Palms at Fort Myers.

The people that work here are really nice. They take good care of us, and they are CARING. The help here is amazing. They all take the time to get to know each of us. They do little things every day that make each day special. That’s one of the things I like about here so much. The food is phenomenal, and breakfast is my favorite. I’m here, and I’m glad I’m here. This is my home now and I am glad my brother chose this place for me. I’m very happy.

The memory care unit is run by an incompetent individual who has no experience in dementia care and is not an RN. The experience was awful; nurses not willing to care of patients who had acute issues because they had to go home or refused to obey a family member request to call for doctor visit due to concerns raised by other staff about patients. The policy for who stays to end of life and who doesn't is made up by Christine and Tracy the head nurse based on who they like and who they don't. Staff told me personally after I was told my Mom would have to leave at some point ;they indicated if they don't like the family's they will find ways to move them out. I was told my Tracy that my Mom had to leave and other family members told me their parent was allowed to stay to end of life. In 30 years of being in healthcare I never witnessed such internal friction, gossiping about families and vindictiveness'.

Couldn't be more pleased with choosing The Palms when making the tough decision to help a parent move to another chapter of life. The atmosphere is warm and friendly, and the residents have multiple daily activities or off site trips to choose from. The staff are all friendly and helpful and that was so important. They have handled the Covid situation with care and flexibility. The food is great, simply really good and healthy, great work by the chef and staff. I commend all the staff for doing such a good job with the residents and would like to give thanks to more, but I'm so thankful to Maxine at the front desk for simply being fantastic looking out for my mom, and Steve (Independent Living Administrator) for going well above and beyond his already busy schedule and providing personalized care that I just can't give high enough accolades for. I can rest easier knowing these fine people are there when I'm not. Mike Taylor

My mom is about to turn 94! She has lived at The Palms for about 31, 2 years and because Ive moved to Naples, Im moving her the the sister community closer to me. From the moment you step inside- there is an atmosphere that is so positive and upbeat. Laura Davis, the sales director, has been an angel atop my shoulder from the moment I met her. The staff truly cares about taking care of people. I highly recommend The Palms to anyone who is looking for a home for a loved one. Lots of activities and parties, a hair salon, and many other amenities. Thank you all for taking such great care of my mom!

April 2015 I made a frantic call to The Palms PRAYING they had a room in memory care AND assisted living for my mom and dad, truly a miracle they did! I knew in my heart then, we were in the right place. Married 56 years, mom diagnosed with dementia sent dad into a mental mess. Not wanting to separate them was our goal and The Palms made it happen! Mom lived a couple years down in memory care and dad is still on 5th floor assisted living. The staff on both floors were so good at keeping themtogetheras much as possible.During this time of Covid the staff has gone above and beyond, we his family are so very grateful for the wonderful staff, service, and true concern for his well being. This has been difficult for all of us and they have taken the concern of his well being off of our minds. We know he is safe!!!!I tell everyone The Palms is the BEST! If Im ever in need, its where Id like to live!Thank you Elaine the front desk guru! Odille, a kind gentle soul! Denise, a great caring Dr, Diana and Laura for getting us in! Elaine on 5th, for loving my daddy!Everyone deserves a raise for handling the pandemic so professionally!

My grandmother has been in the memory care unit for 3.5 years now, and although there are occasional issues, overall the level of care is wonderful. I would happily recommend this facility to anyone needing a locked assisted living arrangement.

My parents lived in unit 327 for almost 3 years. This is a 2 bedroom 2 bath apartment in independent living. The management and staff at the Palms were wonderful meeting or exceeding there needs throughout their time there. The meals were chef driven and always delicious as well as nutritional. We were able to add additional services as the need arrose. All were available for a very reasonable price. I cant say enough about the very personal service they were given. Edward Ellyatt

My name is Susan Thompson and I am a caregiver with Executive Care, we work with the Pace program. The staff at the Palms are all Angels and the head An gel is Gary, ED. Gary and his staff are kind, caring, loving and helpful. Every time you ask anyone of the staff members they help right away. The food is delicious and Corporate is very lucky to have a staff that is conscious about helping everyone.

We could not have asked for better care for our parents who lived out their lives at The Palms. Odile, the Residential Manager of Assisted Living, took care of any issue that arose. She was professional, kind and compassionate. She always responded to our concerns and worked to provide the best quality of life for our loved ones. She counseled us in times of need and her door was always open. Elaine, LPN and the CNA staff were kind and caring and treated our parents and us like family. We felt like a team and were included in all decisions right to the very end. Everyone from Elaine and Maxine at the Front Desk to the Maintenance Crew to the Dining Room Servers were top-notch! We would recommend The Palms not only for the best value overall but for the excellent care that the Assisted Living Facility provided. Thank you to everyone!

We placed my Dad in the Palms on 11, 1, 19...pretty much against his wishes. Our earliest personal visual observations along with his indicated that maybe he was too healthy for his first facility after owning homes his whole life.I visited him twice in the first 10 weeks (from Michigan) and he seemed to be acclimating quite well. We all really like Laura and Steve which are the on site mgmt team....but also the staff as they genuinely seemed to enjoy their jobs and mingling with the guests. Dad was in love with the food and clean pool and hot tub. Not so much in love with the area which is pretty commercial as he loves to walk and is used to better scenery. We are bringing him home to Michigan for the summer months but in a conversation with him this past weekend he wondered if we could keep up with the quality of food he is used to! This was an experience neither he nor we thought would go as well as it did. I attribute that to the excellent staff.

Our mom started her assisted living journey at Calusa Harbour and then transferred to the Palms, memory care (BTR). I knew in an instant mom was home. The transition was seamless. I was impressed with all the amenities offered as I periodically came to escort mom out of BTR so she could be part of the activities with other residents. The staff across the board were customer service oriented and Ive referred to your facility as a People First one. From the person that answered the phone to the folks in activities, from maintenance to care providers, and dining staff in BTR, I must compliment your staff on exceeding my familys expectations. Staff are genuine and seem so proud to work here. The extra efforts do not go unnoticed.

My Mom has lived at The Palms for more than 5 years now. We moved her from a similar facility in Tucson, AZ so she could be close to the family here in Fort Myers. From the very first day she fell in love with her apartment, the staff and the many residents she now calls close friends. The entire staff at The Palms are FIRST CLASS professionals! They go out of their way to help every resident feel like it is truly their home! Mom absolutely raves about the staff... everyone, especially the servers in the dinning room always have a smile and a kind word for their residents. The maintenance personal are always so helpful too. Everyone there gets into the many events with high enthusiasm and they always have something to do for the residents. I absolutely recommend you check this place out for someone you love too.

We moved my parents into The Palms in July. I am totally amazed at how friendly all the staff are. I toured about a dozen retirement communities and this was the only one where all staff members say hello and smile. They are so helpful, even after my parents have moved in. They have more activities than most communities, although I would like to see some creative, artsy activities be added. The food is great, and the everyday menu is way more extensive than most communities. Great place, great people!

My dad recently encountered the beginnings of Parkinsons, my Mom, siblings and I were distraught and uncertain as to next steps. We positioned him at The Palms, October 2019 and have been more than pleased with their nurturing, care giving, family meals, daily events, interaction and ongoing commitment to our family. The entire staff starting with Laura Davis, Steve and the rest of the team have been exceptional, attentive and respond promptly with our many questions. Thank you! Stay Healthy and Safe!

My brother-in-law just started living at the Palms, and everyone has been so amazing! He loves it, we love it. The food is great, the people go out of their way to help (and weve needed it several times from several different groups, from front desk to maintenance to activities to therapy). The facility is in great shape, there is always something to do. The residents seem great and friendly too. Highly recommend it!

My parents have lived at the Palms for two years now. They recently moved up to the assisted living area. The staff were amazing and helpful during this transition. I cant say enough about Laura, Diana, Elaine, Odile, the maintenance men who put up shelves, moved a ceiling fan etc. Everyone went above and beyond in helping us get my parents where they needed to be. I feel that all the staff are very pleasant, knowledgeable and always willing to help. Thank you!

Best independent and assisted living in Lee County. Customer service is exceptional in every department - managers and staff. Every employee is upbeat, friendly and make you feel at home. The Palms staff show love and compassion to all residents and families. Great communication and follow-thru. The most important aspect for me is peace of mind knowing my loved one is well taken care of.

We cannot say enough about the wonderful staff and employees at The Palms of Ft.

We only wish they could have come sooner to The Palms, to have a few more years there.We consider ourselves truly blessed.Thanks again for everything!

My dad has been at the Palms for 5 years. He started in Independent Living and most recently move to Assisted Living. The staff is wonderful and always happy to help with any question or problem that we might have with him. I cant say enough about each and everyone one of the staff and now with him living in Assisted Living , its made his life so much easier. They are so caring and considerate of him and no problem that he may have is too big for them. I love each and everyone of them !

My Mom has been a resident at the Palms since 2014 and is proud to call it her home. From the professionals that work at the front desk to the professionals that take care of her every day, my Mom feels well cared for. The staff is always willing to go the extra mile to tend to my Moms specific needs.As I live 1500 miles away, it is important for me to have peace of mind about my Moms care. Whether it is communicating with the Executive Director during a hurricane, consulting with the Residents Service Director about accommodating a special need, or simply talking to one of the professionals in the front office – The Palms is all about taking care of my Mom and providing me and my family peace of mind. Selecting the Palms was the perfect choice!

My mom has been here for 8 years, three of those years with my father. We picked The Palms after researching more than a dozen facilities and we have not been disappointed. The level of care my 83-year-old Type 1 Diabetic mother has received is caring, and goes above and beyond what I expected. Its about the people. They genuinely care. As with any facility, a family member needs to be an advocate. Without the involvement of a family member, even the best facility can go off track. I cannot stress the importance of this enough. If I had to make the decision again, it would still be The Palms.

The Palm of Fort Myers has absolutely been home to my Dad for several years. He has moved to Assisted Living now and he is treated with grace and dignity. Each and every person takes the time to ensure his safety and make him feel at home. I am so impressed by all of the activities, the cleanliness and the kindness of everyone. Sheila Kresse
