We chose Home Place of Burlington because of the informative tour as well as the fact that my mother knew several residents there. These residents provided a great recommendation. I really like Eventus, the medical staff. They are very informative.
We attended an information seminar and we were intrigued by the presentation and eventually became the second couple to move into Brier Pointe when it opened. We were drawn into the community by the promise of all-inclusive services to include meals, housekeeping, paid utilities, transportation services, social activities & events. We have not been disappointed at all. In fact, we've met so many new friends and my husband has received a new lease on life. He was introduced to Chinese brush painting, and this is his new passion. He has painted 45 pieces in 14 months and has even been offered up to $200 for some of his work.
[name removed] and the entire staff at Emerald Pond genuinely care about the residents. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a community for their parents. My Mom likes it there.
