Aspira Kensington Place is a welcoming kosher community characterized by brightly lit spacious interiors and kind staff. The beautifully designed, elegant retirement residence implicitly provides seniors with the respectful setting they deserve. Families will be well-pleased with how loved ones live and get treated here, and they’ll enjoy visiting downtown and all that it offers.
One Kenton Place is a bright, positive setting optimized for the care of seniors with Alzheimer’s or dementia. A robust staff here ensures that your loved one has the care and attention they need. They're communicative, cheerful, and compassionate yet professional in all interactions. Daily activities and interactions keep your loved one engaged.
I am so happy in my new home. The staff, all the way down from Andy Salgar, to the waitresses, nurses, cleaners, and night staff make this fully kosher place, home... Excellent food, good friendly service, a Shabbos elevator and... there are many activities for those less busy.
Mom has been a resident for over 5 years. Wonderful care and kindness from the majority of staff. Food is delicious and plentiful. Place is kept so clean. Congratulations in keeping the residence free from the Pandemic.
Nine months ago we were searching for a residence for my 96-year-old father who was struggling at home alone with dementia. As a family, we decided that despite daily PSW support it was no longer safe for him to continue living on his own. I consider myself blessed that we contacted One Kenton for a tour and a meeting with their administrative staff. We were assured that his physical and mental well-being was their first priority and I can confirm that our experience has been nothing short of excellent and has enhanced and likely extended my father’s life despite living with this wretched disease. Their daily health and safety protocols kept residents safe throughout the pandemic and I believe have kept him more ambulatory and healthy than he would have been living alone at home. Daily activities, exercise and nutritious meals tailored to his needs have kept him engaged and supported in a safe environment. It is an extremely clean, bright and positive space for seniors. It is also a supportive environment for families trying to understand the challenges of the disease and support their aging family members. The staff is empathetic, cheerful, and have an abundance of patience and understanding for seniors coping with complicated health issues. I would highly recommend this facility for family members who want their loved one in a safe and supportive residence with staff that are committed to helping their residents live their best lives.
Our family member has adjusted well here because of the wonderful care and attention of the staff, the delicious food and daily activities.
My Wife and I had the pleasure of working with the staff at One Kenton in support of my Mom's dementia. We can't say enough good things about the staff at the facility. Caring, communicative, and loving are just a few of the adjectives that come to mind. Staff-to-resident ratios are incredible. My Mom's stay at One Kenton was relatively short as "The Man Upstairs" had other plans for her. Even in her passing, the staff never forgot about the family. We truly appreciate all of the support and specialized care that Mom received in her final days.
I want to commend Ruth Dayan for her exemplary management at One Kenton Place... What always strikes me about Ruth is her big heart. She is firm but compassionate. Whenever I spoke to her about my concerns, no matter how busy she was or how burdened, I always felt she was listening to me with empathy and complete attention. And when action had to be taken on my mother’s behalf, she took it and made sure to follow through to the desired outcome. Finally, what impresses me most about Ruth, is how she has grown into a difficult job, one that has thrown many a seasoned CEO in health care. I met her shortly after she came to One Kenton, and noted how she would deal with whatever her role required. No matter the challenge, even a global pandemic, she has met it with resourcefulness and stunning personal grace. It seems to come from character within. If she is overwhelmed, and she must be, she keeps going and does the job. You can’t help but have confidence that Ruth will come through for your loved one at One Kenton. At a time when I was not able to visit or be there for my mother in the way I was accustomed, I had to entrust her to Ruth and the caregivers in her charge. Ruth Dayan did not let me down and I cannot help but be grateful to her and her service to my mother and our family.
My mother-in-law, Lynda, resided at One Kenton Place for 3.5 years until her death. She lived in security with dignity and comfort. Kenton is a small, unique facility with a family environment. All areas in the building are exceptionally clean and well maintained with free visitor parking. The building is located in a residential neighborhood overlooking a large green space with several wheelchair and walker-friendly routes. The common rooms and dining rooms are spacious, bright, and cheerful with large windows. There is an outdoor eating and social area on the main floor as well as a lovely shaded outdoor garden patio on the North side of the building. Each floor has its own dining room with an attached common area. They are well-appointed, comfortable, bright, and welcoming with large windows. The staff is wonderfully compassionate, with nurses and an in-house doctor. They were very attentive to Lynda’s well-being. They assisted in providing a secure and stress-free environment. The management was proficient and quick to accommodate Lynda's individual and unique requirements. There was great attention to her (diabetic) diet with a customizable menu that included plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables. Lynda enjoyed the various daily physically and mentally stimulating programs, as well as the occasional music program. The community atmosphere is pleasant, and Lynda made new friends. My wife and I spent many happy hours participating in programs and meals with her. In the summer, we would walk around the neighborhood and then have tea and quiet time watching TV together in her room. Lynda soon felt right at home. I would recommend One Kenton Place for anyone with dementia or Alzheimer’s who needs extra special care.
We are an inclusive residence that is guided by the Jewish faith and traditions. If you are a senior who is looking for a beautiful atmosphere, first-rate service and accommodation options, the choice is simple. Kensington Place is the ideal blend of European-inspired architecture, delicious kosher cuisine—and a haymish atmosphere that comes from being among good people. Our recreation program is unparalleled, with activities that include thought-provoking speakers, fitness and wellness programs, community involvement, theatrical and musical presentations, and weekly religious services. Dining services are supervised under the Kashruth Council, and we have a Mashgiach onsite.
At One Kenton Place we offer innovative, individualized care for those affected by Alzheimer’s disease and/or dementia by identifying a person’s social, emotional, physical, intellectual and spiritual needs. Our compassionate team of specialists and nurses, are committed to celebrating the spirit and uniqueness of each of our residents in an environment anchored by dignity, respect and the ability to thrive. Our focus is on maintaining one’s independence by building upon current cognitive and physical capabilities, while working to strengthen and develop additional skills. We empower our residents to reach their potential through encouraged independence. We ‘see’ the person and recognize that who they are is distinct from the symptoms of their disease.
