My Mom is settled and content. It was a big adjustment, but now she enjoys the friendship's that she is making. She brags about the care that the girls in house-keeping give her and the assistant's that tend to her daily needs. So I say over all we made a good choice. The daily care from Housekeeping individuals and the extra care given to her by people who are giving her daily assistance. Some times the people that care and do the day to day work aren't given the credit that they deserve.

I have lived here for 11 years and am very happy with my choice. My children do not have to find a nursing home for me when I need one. I have already made that choice myself. When I need to go to a place to live with a higher level of care, that is available without a major move. Maintenance of the facility is improving.

We have been impressed by the care of the staff. They really just "love my mother" and let her know! The place is small enough that one does not feel as if one is in an institution. Any time there is a concern, we can call or stop by and talk to admin., who are very quick to address the issue. All of the staff do all of the work. I've seen the Executive Director, and the head of Nursing, serving meals and cleaning up!
