    Unsafe, unclean facility; avoid entirely

    I wanted to believe the place was as "agradable" and "acogedor" as advertised, but I've seen persistent neglect and safety issues. The facility is not well maintained or regularly cleaned-dirty walls, tarps on the roof, a rotten shed with rodent signs, wastewater dumped in the backyard, and a green pool full of tree frogs. Trees cause frequent power outages, there's no whole-house generator, and residents have been left without AC during hurricane season; I've also witnessed staff smoking on the patio instead of caring for patients and multiple fire rescues. I cannot recommend this facility.

    About MACARENA ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY, INC

    Macarena Assisted Living Facility, Inc, sits in Miami, Florida, and gives care to seniors who need a little help with everyday life, so you'll find friendly staff always around, and even though the building once had a roof covered with a tarp and a shed in the yard and you might spot a washing machine set up outdoors, folks say the place feels loving and the staff seem joyful and kind, not only with residents but with visitors too, which is nice because it matters who's taking care of you at this stage in life. The community only opens Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and keeps closed on weekends, which is something to remember. It's small, with only six licensed beds, and it gets a reputation score of 3.4 stars, so it's probably not fancy, but residents can get help with daily things like bathing, dressing, and managing their medicines, and there's always staff on hand, including people trained for special needs like diabetes or Parkinson's care.

    There's a focus on keeping people connected with activities for the mind, body, and spirit, from off-site devotional gatherings to games and walking paths among the trees, and folks can have small pets, which some people love for company. Seniors live in private or shared rooms and eat three meals a day that aim to be nourishing, and staff take care of housekeeping and laundry, even though the washer's outside. Residents can use indoor areas, and even have high-definition TVs, computer and internet access, and a beauty shop. Transportation is available to shops and medical appointments, and there's security, pharmacy support, and options for communal dining or a private bistro meal. Medical care includes diabetic care, incontinence and lifting assistance, as well as plans tailored for personal needs, but the place doesn't take Medicare except in very special circumstances. Macarena Assisted Living Facility, Inc, got recognition like the Best of Senior Living and the Best of Senior Living All Star Award, but most people care more that it's quiet, has trees outside, and offers peace of mind to families. The business keeps active in its records and has been around since 2015 under Florida license #12764, with ROCIO HEALTH MANAGEMENT, INC. overseeing things, so everyone knows who's responsible, which matters if you want to ask questions or make sure the place stays on track for your loved one.
