A Transformative Experience at The Abigail Assisted Living
After a distressing and unacceptable experience at Hudson Manor on Davis Island, where my mother suffered neglect and abuse, moving her to The Abigail has been a life-changing decision. At Hudson Manor, my mother was not only deprived of proper care—she was never bathed, fed poor-quality “prison-like” food, and subjected to overmedication that kept her chemically restrained and bedridden. It became clear that this was done to make her easier to manage, rather than to care for her properly. The final straw was when I witnessed a staff member striking her in the face. The staff lacked proper qualifications, with many seemingly hired without the necessary licenses or training.
Since transferring to The Abigail, my mother has truly thrived. She now receives nutritious meals, is bathed regularly, and benefits from both speech and physical therapy. The staff at The Abigail go above and beyond, lovingly attending to her needs and even enjoying helping her look her best. Most importantly, my mother is no longer bedridden—she’s engaged, active, and has a genuine smile on her face when I visit.
The Abigail Assisted Living has truly set a new standard for her well-being, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the compassionate, professional team that has brought joy back to her life. I’ve attached images to show the stark contrast between her condition at Hudson Manor on Davis Island and how wonderfully she is cared for at The Abigail in Hyde Park Tampa. Thank you Manuel and Karen. Their facility has high stands and treats your loved ones like it was their mother or father.
I can’t say enough about the level of loving care that my Mother received!!! So grateful!!!
Personal care
I can not say enough about the compassionate care the Abigail provided my terminally ill sister. The facility is immaculate and the food amazing. The owners and staff are caring, loving people who are very attentive to both patients and their families. Unfortunately, my sister has passed now, but I felt she received the best care Tampa had to offer. They staff has a wonderful working relationship with other community programs that are able to aid in the care of your loved one. I felt my sister was in a home with loving, caring family members, not a corporate facility. I highly recommend The Abigail for your loved one and for family support as well.
