Heard they got a new administration. She’s freaking AWESOME!!!!!!! She spoils her residents by buying them things out of her own pocket!! Who does that now? Talk about taking care of the residents! She also plays bingo with them three days a week, will also work on the floor and anywhere that needs help. THAT is a true leader right there!!!! I can see this place growing and getting better!
