“BV is smaller than most and the building is old but the staffing cannot be matched. Dwight was given top notch care for 7 years and I as his caretaker was equally cared for emotionally. I felt like I was part of the “family.””

“The staff who care for my mom on a daily basis are exceptional. Annie and her team really care about the residents. The Concierge desk especially Desiree are so great. They are warm and engaging and always make me feel good when I enter the building. I am so grateful that my mother is living here!”
