Clean, neat and welcoming. Dawson Place seems to be a well run, positive environment for individuals in need of long term care. The facility is well staffed and attentive to the clients and guest alike. I was greeted quickly at the locked door and escorted to my friend’s room. Everyone that I encountered was friendly and seemed respectful of each client. I was impressed.
