They know immediately when she needs extra assistance, and provide it with loving care. From the front office staff to the nursing and dining hall staff, all the employees seem to know her name, which makes a person feel so much more at home. She has found a warm and loving atmosphere in which to live out her life, and I have a strong feeling of confidence, knowing she is being so well cared for.”
