Whaler's Cove in New Bedford, MA

Thanks to the Whaler's Cove staff to making the decision to join their community an easy one. From day 1, my Dad was welcomed and had everything done to make his transition as simple as possible. They did everything to make him feel right at home...it was like getting a brand new family! I could not have done everything without them! Thank you for being the angels taking care and watching my Dad during the times I can't be with him. Thank you again!
