A Safe Heaven for the Elderly in Miami at the Palace at Coral Gables


We should learn not only to respect but also to embrace culture diversity. However there are some common universal principles that transcend each culture and individual as different and complex as we dare to be. Every culture, ethnic group, society and even religion agrees that we should honor the elderly and particularly our parents.

The Miami Herald recently published an article on the Palace at Coral Gables and I think it is worth reading it especially if you are interested in finding a place for an elderly person in your family. This is Fantastic News for everyone! It is for sure Great News for those who have just retired and want to enjoy now sunny days in a peaceful and secure environment in Miami. It is also Terrific News for sons and daughters who are looking for the best option to take care of their elderly parents. A place like the Palace at Coral Gables will offer a great compromise for young families who want to be close to their parents but do not have the ability to stay with them 24/7.

While your parents can stay at the Palace at Coral Gables enjoying good camaraderie and fellowship with some of the other retired residents you could live close by in one of the many superb neighborhoods in Miami and visit them as much as time allows.  Miami is well known for its nightlife and young population but it could also be a fun place and safe heaven for the elderly.
