I thank the good Lord and our blessed Mother and Saint Joseph everyday that my mother lives here. It is a miraculous blessing. Her health has turned around as much as it can with all the problems she has and the sisters are so loving and attentive. The staff they hire to work with the elderly at Jeanne Jhugane. You're gone and Holy Family are very Hands-On and loving as well.

Mom has been here for 7 years and is now in her last days and hours. Wouldn't want her anywhere else! The facility is clean and friendly and caring. Residents are well fed and there is always some kind of activity for them. God bless the Little Sisters of the Poor for their work!

I'm a travel nurse and have been to a lot of places. This place is the ONLY place I would gladly have my family member to live. The facility has to be a Godsend. IMMACULATE. The sisters are working on the floor and have very high standards. Staff follow residents wishes about when they'd like to be helped to bed, they're not TOLD like many places. Familial atmosphere between residents. Been coming here 2 years now and am so proud

Little sisters of the poor treat their residents so respectfully. My mil and numerous people we know love it! Mass everyday, such a catholic atmosphere with all the nuns in their habits! Sad that society has affected other orders.
