There is so much I want to say! Long story short... I took my 9 year old autistic daughter to the Easter event on the evening of April 17, 2025 and a young boy literally took a golden egg from her. She asked a few times for him to please give it back and didn't, he just ran off laughing. When I said something to the Administrator, he was very kind and apologized. Him and a few other employees went above and beyond for my daughter today, to make up for the incident, even though it was not their fault. If they are this kind to people who are not residents there, I image the care the residents receive is amazing! Thank you again so very much for your kindness!
