Resident & family reviews
My mother was there for almost 2 years. She died of Altzhiemers. This faculty is old and not fancy, but its very clean and the staff is wonderful. It is a small place and so the service is one on one. She had to be moved from another place because she was being abused there. We went in warily and were prepared for the worst. We were more than pleasantly surprised. They treated her like family, even though she became a handful at the end. I was so thankful to them for the love and care that they gave her.
