All is going well. we are happy with Dewitt Place. Friendliness and the activities that are available for the residents were the main things that stuck out about this facility over others. They are always polite and there when help is needed.
Our mom has been at the Shannondale Assisted Living for about 4 years. She has declined physically and mentally, but honestly, she is happy everyday. The staff at Shannondale is so unbelievably nice to her- Care begins with a hug and a smile. And it is very clean- never smells bad. I really appreciate everything they do. It's a tough job, and they do it with grace and love.
