Everyone has been so helpful and kind. Mom says she absolutely loves everyone here. The help is so kind and thoughtful. We love how they keep an eye on mom to make sure she is doing good. Everything we have a question on has either been answered or they will get us the answer. Extremely happy with everything and everyone.
