My sister has lived in Arbor Ridge for over two years. Having previously lived on her own, and being quite shy, there was concern that she wouldn’t adjust. I spent weeks visiting other facilities and found Arbor Ridge to be clean and the staff caring. During the first two weeks, the staff stayed near her, even walking with her to the lunchroom. As time progressed, she became more familiar with the other residents and staff. Today she feels at home and even takes walks with other residents. I can’t stress enough how genuinely all the staff cares for each resident. Whether it’s the Med Aides, the caregivers, or even the housekeeping staff, they all show so much love. There are activities for all the residents, and they are encouraged to participate in them. Knowing there is someone here 24 hours a day, to provide whatever care is needed puts me at ease. My sister will always miss her old home, but because of Arbor Ridge and the care staff, she has become happy once again. I can’t begin to express my gratitude.
