I am very impressed with the management and staff at Northern Lakes. All are caring and helpful to their residents and visitors . The activities staff do so many fun things with residents in their memory care unit. I see lots of smiles and content residents. Great job from the kitchen staff keeping everyone full and lots of snacks too. The environmental and laundry staff do a great job keeping things clean and organized along with the task of keeping clothing sorted and back to the correct resident. Thank you all for your big hearts and caring fun personalities.
