My husband was in the rehab section of Paramount of South Hills. He received excellent, individualized care. Every member of his team treated him with respect and compassion. The entire staff at Paramount were pleasant and helpful and you can tell that they all enjoy their work and that they truly care about the patients.The nursing staff were excellent! While I hated for my husband to have to be there, the obvious dedication and compassion of the staff made me feel comfortable leaving him in their capable hands. My husband received speech therapy, and, in the short time that he was there, we noticed definite improvements in his speech and comprehension. Occupational therapy and physical therapy also were great--both in the services provided and the advice as to how to adapt his environment and his activities.The facility is very clean, the rooms are spacious, and the dining and lounge areas were comfortable and inviting. My husband enjoyed a variety of foods and was provided with alternatives if he did not want what was on the standard menu. I'm hoping he won't expect that same variety and flexibility now that he's home.If you are in need of a rehabilitation facility, I highly recommend Paramount South Hills.
My grandmother lived here for about six months. She received excellent care while she was here. Before she moved here, my mother and I read countless reviews on other places and visited several. Unfortunately, the majority of places we visited were not at all nice. Paramount was a totally different experience.Everything about Paramount was top notch. The staff, care, food and general upkeep and appearance were always perfect. My grandmother was here when the COVID pandemic started and I was very impressed on the measures Paramount took.The medical care she received was great and the staff went out of their way to make her comfortable and feel at home.I highly recommend this location.
Paramount was nothing short of amazing with my dad during his 2 week stay in their skilled care facility. He had fallen at a different facility and sustained multiple fractures which made his care at Paramount especially challenging but the staff was loving, courteous and professional. If you have never seen the facility do yourself a favor and visit it as it is beautiful and very well maintained.Not only was the staff wonderful during his stay but when he left the facility they followed up to check on his condition.Unfortunately, I learned first hand how inattentive, uncaring and flat outnegligent staffs can be at some facilities. With care of your loved one being priority #1, I feel VERY comfortable recommending Paramount to ANYONE who requires loving and professional care and attention.I would have rated Paramount more than 5 stars if I could.
I give Paramount Personal Care Home in Baldwin5 Stars!! Mom loved her stay. The staff members were fantastic! They took such great care of my mom. From the time she arrived, till she left, she was treated like a queen. The food was very very good. I ate many meals with her and I was very impressed with every aspect of this facility. I recommend this place to anyone who is looking for senior living, skilled nursing or for a loved one with Dementia/Alzheimer’s.
Mother stayed in the skilled nursing side until she could go to an ICF to finish rehab. The place is gorgeous and the staff is so friendly. Every one from CNAs to the Director of Nursing was hands on as needed and even asked family members if they needed anything. Employees addressed their needs as soon as they could. From daily needs to even serving the food. I ate every meal with my mother and the food was really good, $5 for lunch and $6 for dinner. Had a great time meeting the staff and all the patients and residents on the senior living side. CNA Nellie really won me over as a fan when she would bring my drinks with my meals and knew what I drank with out asking. Meaning she even paid attention to me as a guest. Not to take away anything from the other great and nice CNAs and nurses who also cared too.
Paramount Baldwin is a very well-managed senior living facility. From top to bottom, this place is top rate. We found the following:- The facility is very clean.- The residents' rooms are well-designed and comfortable.- The staff is exceptionally helpful and caring toward all of the residents.- They have a good and varied activities program.Special thanks to Emily for her kind and professional assistance. Also to Victoria, who is a great nurse and is so kind and helpful.
