My mother has been here close to two years now and she is well taken care of! My brother and I have no complaints and her health is much better now compared to another facility she stayed at before coming to CH. Staff has been GREAT!!

The Carmel Home is a wonderful home for the elderly. My mother in law has been there for a few months and already feels so at home. The staff is the best-always so friendly.

The Carmel Home is a wonderful place! My mother was there for about eight years. The staff took very good care of her. Our family was really close and the Carmel Home provided private places for us when we all got together. They even provided a place to stay if we were out-of-town. The Carmel Home is clean with a friendly staff of caregivers. I am so glad that my mother lived in a quiet, safe, and secure environment after our father passed. I will always have very fond memories of the Carmel Home.~~Theron Wells

My grandmother used to work here & it has always been a special place to her. Its extremely clean and so beautiful. The residents are very well taken care of. I'll never forget all the wonderful stories my grandma told me about working there. My great grandmother Josephine Jolly was a resident and they treated her like she was their grandmother too. It doesnt smell like most places in this business. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a place to care for your loved ones.

My wife's grandparents are there. The facility is clean and well decorated. Staff seem really caring at least each time we go to visit. They even have a cabin and a house for families to stay when they want to visit. They throw parties too!
