Mali and her team of caregivers really care for their clients and their loved ones. Mali brought my parent to the hospital and waited for me to meet her there before leaving the ER to return back to her staff and other residents. This is not what I experienced from another PCH in the past. Her team cares not just for your loved one but for you as well. She and her team have saved me and my child's sanity. Very gracious and kind. The facility and residents are kept clean at all times. They feed the residents well, monitor their medications and even help keep your loved one manicured and entertained. Worth every penny!!!!! Definitely worth a visit and I truly recommend giving her a chance to provide a home for your loved one......
Very nice facility. Friendly and caring staff. They made a point to know my father's name from day one. They were great at communicating with me as well.
Our overall experience was very good. The facility was very clean and all the staff was great! Very friendly and helpful! I was impressed with the quality of care from all the staff. The staff always provided my dad with the care he needed and made him feel loved. The food was on point and dad seemed to eat and enjoy it when he could. Plenty of activities were provided for everyone. The price to stay was within our budget we appreciate all you guys did for us. I wish I'd found you guys sooner!
