I was welcomed in by Irina and Mel for a wonderful lunch and tour. I learned so much about the facility, the services, and amenities that all of the residents have access to at Harwood Place. The inside is kept just as beautiful as the outside grounds, which have many gorgeous trees and gardens. There are tons activities and opportunities for seniors to connect with others all while being part of a loving community. Everyone feels like family there. As a home health agency owner, I highly recommend seniors tour Harwood Place Senior Living to see and feel how warm and welcoming everyone truly is!
