I'd like to be able to call my God Mother/Aunt and check in with her. Please add a phone number to make this possible. I appreciate that she has a place to stay that is local for her, but I found it frustrating that people could not look up the number or easily gain access to visit people here. It is known that people do better in memory care when they have additional stimulation such as continued experience and interactions from their loved ones. Please provide a phone number on Google so that family members can reach out. Thank you, Krista Thank you. Krista

John, the owner, really cares for the elderly and you can see it with the staff he has there at the site. The nurses and all the staff seriously care. It is a blessing to have my mother at this facility in Walker. Thank you Birchview Gardens for your love and personal care of my mother Vicki!
