Home, what does that mean? It is different for each of us. Monark Grove is home for my loved one. just over a month ago, we found this sanctuary. Step inside with my brother. He immediately felt happy. The acceptance was warm and remains more so, the longer he lives here. The entire staff is friendly and helpful. Each request is taken care of, with a smile. The staff goes beyond a job description in order to meet the needs of their residents.<br>Monark is a clean, serene facility. with a pool, fitness room, dining room and activities everyday.<br>Fresh coffee, baked cookies and fruit for the residents daily.<br>Each resident we have met has been very gracious. Helpful to my brother in learning his way around, He is invited to sit with them at the dining table and reminds him of the activities, going walking or simply sitting outside together.<br>There are many more reasons to call Monark Grove home. Come for a visit and you will want to make it your home.
