They do a great job overall at Traverse Manor! The staff is very friendly and take great care of the people who live here. The facility itself is very clean, and they offer a lot of great amenities, including good food and a busy activity schedule.

My loved one has Alzheimer's, and he appears to be very content so we've been really happy with the service, and it's a very clean facility.

My Aunt just moved into The Fields and it’s the happiest she’s ever been! The meals are home cooked fresh meals - the staff are always smiling and willing to help and the residents are all so pleasant and happy! This move was a long time coming but definitely one I wish I would have made sooner!!
