Mom has lived at Clover Care for a little over a year, and we could not be happier. The caregivers are very warm and nurturing, and we have seen an overall improvement in her spirit since she moved in. We were able to see first-hand how an emergency room visit was handled, and left feeling very comfortable with the professionalism and care exhibited by the staff. The warm and cozy setting, family-style meals, and low resident numbers make this the perfect place for Mom.
We are very pleased with ComfortCare Homes of Baldwin City. It is the best decision we have made. Our loved one has enjoyed the meals served. The community is well kept and always clean throughout. The staff are just marvelous. They are very caring, soft spoken, and gentle. I am very comfortable with the community!
