We moved my MIL into Salmon Creek almost 1 year ago and I’m sorry I haven’t given them a 5 star review before now. My first introduction to Salmon Creek was my phone call and meeting with Ryan. He was so considerate and caring, and definitely thinks of every detail when it comes to caring for loved ones. The care and support my MIL has received in the past year (and her sister who visits twice a year) has been beyond what we hoped for and expected. My MIL has made great friends, participates in daily activities, and is SO HAPPY, which is a huge difference from when she lived on her own by herself. All of the residents seem so nice and we are introduced to her friends frequently who feel that her being there is a blessing also. We are very thankful for Salmon Creek, all of the workers, the managers, the residents, and the overall feeling of home and acceptance that is felt there on a daily basis. Ryan-thank you for the introduction of this beautiful community.

In my search for an independent living facility in Boise Idaho, I had the good fortune to have Ryan Ferrara give me a tour at Salmon Creek Gracious Retirement Living on North Cloverdale Road. I visited 3 other facilities but Ryan stood out as being highly professional but he excels at connecting with people on a personal level and makes you instantly feel comfortable. Additionally, he showcases Salmon Creek's beautiful living amenities and safe environment. During the tour, he paused briefly throughout to acknowledge the residents, the housekeeping and food service staff who he treats like friends while introducing me to them as well. He was very attentive to me and didn't rush me through the tour while pointing out so many positive things throughout the residence. Ryan's personality sold me...he's kindhearted, has a delightful sense of humor, and makes a point of getting to know the individual prospective client rather than just going through a checklist of the property details. Ryan is an amazing asset for your company and I wanted you to know why! Employees like Ryan are why companies succeed where others fail because they don't have a "Ryan" in charge!
