I was truly blessed to have had Southern Hospitality Home care for my mother for the past 3 years. Michelle and all of her staff are literal angels here on Earth with hearts of gold. They loved my mother and she could not have been better cared for. This is an actual "house" with a maximum of 15 residents. It is very "homey" and everyone is always friendly and positive. I miss all of them now that my mom has passed. I will never forget their compassion and would give them 10 stars if I could!! Highly recommend!

My mother is treated like a queen and loves the activity's and will always tell me how great the meals are. Michelle thank you and your staff so much for taking care of our mother.

So thankful for the wonderful, excellent, compassionate care the SOHO staff and leadership provide daily for my mother, Ethel. She is a truly happy and contented resident of SOHO! May you all have a blessed Christmas season! Sincerely yours, David Brack

I called to offer services that senior patients could definitely use and I was brushed off as a robo-call. Not a good way to do business.
