When looking at assisted living alternatives for your aging parents it’s easy to focus on the facility and physical features one can observe on a tour/visit. While this is important, what you can’t measure up front is the level of care your loved ones will be provided as residents.<br><br>In the long run this is what is far more important than bricks and mortar and a schedule of offered programs.<br><br>The Bungalows at Springdale more than met my parents requirements for a living space / facility and amenities. They are proud to say they are living at the Bungalows as It is a very nice and well kept facility that physically accommodates the needs of the residents. They are also constantly developing and offering programming and events for those residents and their families that wish to or are able to participate.<br><br>What far exceeded my parents and my own expectations is level of care and careing provided by everyone there. The people. That’s what makes a facility great.<br><br>From Paula and her management team to all levels of the care givers and staff, you have people who genuinely care about each of the residents and take ownership for the high level of care they are providing.<br><br>Because I live in a different state, a days travel away, it was very important to me to be able to be confident they would be well taken care of and needs met in my absence. Based on what my wife and I have personally observed during visits over the years as well as comments on phone calls I rest worry free knowing that they are happy, needs are being at met or exceeded and they are in good hands. Communication from the staff when appropriate has been excellent as well.<br><br>The people at the Bungalow are truly more like friends or family than someone just doing their job.<br><br>A very heartfelt thanks to all of you at the Bungalows at Springdale for what you do and do so well.
