My brother-in-law was there. He was helped with getting important documents & the help he needed. He was also assisted in getting in touch with family so that he could live with us. We wouldn’t have known he was in Texas without their help. I would like to thank them for reuniting the brothers!

Tammy and all the staff I've met at Jeffrey Place work together to make sure my sister and their residents are fed, sleep well, entertained, and that they know they care about them. They gave my sister a party for her birthday and a great T-shirt. She was thrilled. She walks now because they coaxed her and made sure she had physical therapy. She's in the memory care unit. Whenever I've interacted with them, I've felt like they work together as a team. Thank you to all the staff who work there!

I love Jeffery Place. The love and welcome I receive every time I visit is genuine . I’m a small business and it means the world to me to have such a wonderful company consider my services. Artist-N-U is honored to work with the wonderful staff there to make the quality of life better for their elders using art. Everyone is always awesome to me. The Activity department is one of the best I’ve ever worked with. Tammy is patient and caring. She’s definitely one of the best.
