7191 71st St N, Pinellas Park, FL 33781, United States
My mom spent her last few years as a resident of Nurses Helping Hands and I honestly don't think a better comparable facility could be found anywhere. Every member of the staff is friendly and caring and knows each resident as an individual; there is definitely a feeling of family. Andre the chef is fabulous --he and his sweet treats were one of Mom's favorites, and as a previously "picky" eater, she ate nearly everything he prepared! The director, Jeanne always took the time to send photos of mom enjoying activities and celebrations, in addition to always being willing to set up video calls between mom and me while I was out of state. When it was time for mom to enter Hospice, knowing her end of life care could continue at Nurses Helping Hands was a huge relief. I will always be grateful for the love and care given to my mom at Nurses Helping Hands.

If I could give Nurses Helping Hands more than 5 stars I would. We placed my mother there after visiting the facility and never regretted it for a minute. The entire staff took care of my mom like she was their only resident. They were so caring, and comforting. They went above and beyond many times to meet her needs. They were so compassionate. I and my siblings felt like we'd placed her in an actual loving home. I felt like part of the caring family myself. The admin are in easy contact and even when I had to go back home they kept in contact. They have numerous activities and parties and the food is good also. I would not hesitate to place a loved one there. I would place myself there. Really love this assisted living home and the staff. God Bless Nurses Helping Hands.
If I could rate this place a 20/10 I would! My nanny is currently a resident there and they truly care for their residents like family. I was very apprehensive at first at the thought of a family member going to an ALF. Everyone always tells the horror stories. Here, my anxiety was completely alleviated. On a tour, Jeanne spent over an hour showing me the room, the dining area, activities, and answering every question I had. I saw how their excellent staff knows and cares for each of their residents. I am communicated with frequently and kept updated on my nanny’s care. I visit frequently and can see how well she, and the others, are cared for. This place is truly a gem and my family is so blessed to have our loved one here. Thank you, Jeanne, Clem, Heidi, Cory, Marlene, Susan, Cell, Adora, and to MANY, MANY MORE wonderful staff members at Nurse’s Helping Hands. My nanny has had a hard time adjusting to this new normal, but she now truly calls this place “home” and it means the world to us and her.
Nurse’s Helping Hands was my mom’s home for the final few years of her life. I so appreciate the watchful care of Jeanne and her staff, and the consideration and concern they had for my mom. Jeanne regularly communicated with me and my sisters and sent photos and updates of my mom participating in the NHH community over the years. She set up regular FaceTime visits for times I couldn’t visit in person, and when I could visit in person I was welcome to come at any time. In my mom’s final days of hospice care at NHH, the hospice nurse shared with me that she doesn’t have the highest opinion of many assisted-living facilities but that NHH stands out for having a staff that truly cares about their patients. This really stuck with me, and the care that Jeanne and her staff showed toward my mom is something that will stay with me always. A special shout-out to Andre the chef – who, to the very end, showed his kindness through his wonderful food. Andre, I’ll remember you always, too. ☺
My Dearest Friend John, a Double War Veteran, was there, which as a Veteran, I felt what was Best that John Went to the VA ~ My Friend John had been here about a month until I was able to go see my dear friend. I Noticed how grease had overtaken his hair, nearly as if John were using Crisco daily. Then I saw mold growing on John's legs & arms that looked as if it were ''scabs'' from possible cuts or scrapes, which Clearly indicated my friend had NOT BEEN BATHED! We left and I had noticed how filthy & Disrespectful This place Really Is! The employees there, were too busy socializing. A woman had been using one Foot "trying to get to her lunch"... Why wasn't This Lady Escorted? I went again, maybe 2 weeks later, it was Worse! Let me Express This before I Share How I Fixed the Major Decree of Neglect, Only For John I'm Certain! This 2nd time visiting John, while his "woman handeling" Finances Only, I took the Opportunity to go to John's side of the small room, that looks to be an old annex from the 60's, Still using the Same TV Dinners from back days. The Only thing that Held Me Back from Visiting Every Day, or Close to it, was financial & I'm disabled. No Matter, Since My 1st & 2nd Visits & After All John Did For America & Americans, they' was No Way I'd Leave My Buddy Down! Hoorah! ! After the 2nd I asked the woman if I could possibly go with her the Next visit... PLEASE. Near 2 weeks later we walked in John's Room & John was Panicking, discussing confusing statements & was looking for his cell phone. It was in his hand Already. So I went Close to John & Using "First Responders" techniques to bring John's anxiety down & hello John feel safe and everything is okay Buddy John would Certainly Require a "Buddy" Right Now! Then I left John's Room looking for Any Staff! Finally I found one who was Lost Herself. Another woman's name was Literally Screamed Out For. ?? Well the Head of Nurses Helping Hands Was Called & I Was Clear Who John IS & John IS Getting Bathed, Fresh Sheets on his bed, the Crusted Layers of Yuck on John's Table was, the Curtains, window and ledge need to be washed & sanitized. I Demanded Immediate Action Now! It was Sad, Painful, Crushing, Emotional & Wrong on So Many different Levels! May John RIP & All of John's Sudden Are Gone! Every "Buddy" & Friends Loved This Great Man! John went Home to Heaven sometime That evening. John Had His Respect!! Only Due to God, & an Irishman's Demands!! If You Are Looking For A Caring Place to Entrust Your Family Member or Loving Friend ~ Do Not Take Them Here!! I am a Christian so I know it Best to Bring all of my Everything's to Our Lord. This Time, I Need to let people down here Understand WHAT it's Really Like at this Place Known as, "Nurses Helping Hands". It's the Right Thing to Do in This Situation! I Cleared Myself with Jesus & Maybe the "Story of John" Will Help in Your Best Decision. May Good Bless Your Loved Ones & remember, your Primary Care Doctor's Referral Specialist will Help you find a New Place with More Reviews, watch for duplicates as I've seen it happen a lot, and really Look at How Many Reviewed to "Create" a false 5 Star Place. My Best & Tonight I'll Pray Specifically For God's Direction Super Finding the Better Place to Help who You are Helping! ✝️🛐☘️💚
