October 26, 2018Cyndie - Thank you for the wonderful review. It is always nice to hear that our staff plays a vital role in the happiness and health of our residents. It is joy and honor to help care for your mother.
My sister in law has been in this facility for about a month. Excellent assistance was provided in moving her here, getting drug plans started and getting her introduced to the other residents. She seems very happy now and is settling in fine. On-going assistance by the staff and [name removed] is also excellent.
