"It is important to have therapeutic training and knowledge of the human body, but without human interaction skills it can be wasted. What a wonderful resource in this region of medical excellence."

- Stephen Bellamy, on The Peter B. Lewis Aquatic Center

"Coming to the Piazza really helps all of us relax and feel uplifted. I recently found out that since I have been going there while visiting that my blood pressure has lowered, and it’s helped with my diabetes and related symptoms! So the Piazza benefits family members in addition to residents in so many ways."

"At my age, I have no relatives to ask what it's like to get older. The information I get from the Aging Resources Dinner Conversations is wonderful. Learning what to do or expect in travel, health, technology, is really priceless."

- Rose Nadler

"Much of what you see happening at Menorah Park would not be possible without donor support.  Charlotte’s Tai Chi class at the R.H. Myers Apartments wouldn’t happen.  Andrew would be in his room without his specialized power wheelchair.  Rita would have to be in the nursing home without the activities at Helen’s Place Memory Care.  Our award-winning Center 4 Brain Health would not exist without donor support.  And ultimately, we couldn’t support the biggest nursing home in Ohio, with the biggest census of poor older people, without you."

- Rick Rivitz, Menorah Park Foundation President

"Melanie Kay, daughter of Bea Wyse "Often times I will ask my mom how she is doing, she answers, 'I'm doing great - I feel good and I love living here...everyone is so friendly and kind - I feel comfortable and very safe.' I must agree - the caregivers provide wonderful daily care, the nursing staff is diligent in tending to her physical or medical needs and the Activity Director provides terrific and interesting activities to stimulate her mind and increase her socialization...all this care is provided with dignity, grace, kindness and humor. This is of great comfort to me as I live in California. For my mother, Menorah Park was and remains the right place, at the right time for all the right reasons."

"Having mom close by means the world to us. Of course, we are so pleased with the good care mom has been getting. But more than that, we are all at home at Menorah: we play mahj, we enjoy the Piazza, we celebrate Jewish holidays, the grand-kids visit, we bring the dog, we hang out in the living room. It's a new phase of life for us all and it is good."

I chose the right place and enjoy the company of my friends living at Wiggins Place. Wiggins Place is an easy, comfortable place for my family to visit me. Wiggins Place is home.

"Sally received nothing but great care from her time at Wiggins Place and Menorah Park. You and your staff were always caring and professional. I could not have asked for a better place for her final years."

- Dr. James Grubman, son of Sally Lifschitz, OBM

"You can't imagine the effect and pride you have given my mom. Menorah Park has helped her express her voice and deliver her important messages. She's being listened to and heard-- means so much to her quality of life-- gives more meaning to her life--to help others--still have ability. Son of Elaine Miller"

"Dear Menorah Park
Dad seems to be settling in to the program.
You have quite a few gems on your team there. The
care I have witnessed has touched me. I know that
you see it every day- but your services are invaluable
to both the participants and their loved ones. I have seen such tender, loving patient, supportive and encouraging care and compassion for the clients there. My mom used to tell me, “Who you are when you think that no one is watching you is who you really are. You should be very proud of your team.”
Best,
Melissa Graziano"
