I recently had a relative staying in the memory care unit for a month, and I must say, the staff were exceptionally considerate. I only know a few names, but Kelly and Hudson were particularly kind to both my relative and myself.

I have been networking with Carol Kreuser-Bade and Sunflower Communities for the last 1.5 years. She has been a great partner in our community. I appreciate her willingness to volunteer at such events as our golf tournament & our business expo.

Carol Kreuser-Bade was wonderful to work with! She is professional, kind and caring. She truly wants what is best for the resident. She helped work out all the little details of a move-in and was very helpful when we had questions.

Carol Kreuser-Bade has assisted Woodstone Senior Living in New Ulm several times in the past year with our difficult referrals. She makes sure the transition goes as smooth as possible for the resident, family and the current facility. She is a genuine person who truly wants to find a place for each and every person. Very good to work with. 10/10 recommend her!

Before I relocated to the Florida senior living scene, Carol Kreuser-Bade and Sunflower Communities have assisted me in my professional role at All Saints Senior Living...She was always responsive to help me with placing folks. She always got back in touch with me to provide updates and what I appreciated most is her genuine desire to HELP. She has a heart of gold - this organization is very LUCKY to have Carol!!
