We had a joyous time with Mrs. E. JONES, visiting with her, singing gospel hymns and playing the piano in the lobby. Her spirits were lifted and so were ours, as we witnessed a real spiritual and physical rejuvenation. We plan to return and share the same spirit of love with her and others as well. We were impressed with the overall receptivity and attentiveness of the staff. Blessing and love to one and all at The Remington.

Went to visit and they were eating lunch. He was having a ham sandwich and chips. That’s what he wanted. Fluffy cream pie for dessert. Lots of friendly helpers checking on each table, giving gentle prompts as needed. Afterwards they were going to have some entertainment. Lots of activity. One of the nicest facilities he has ever been in. Friendly check-in.

My mom came to Remington from another AL nearby. She is happy and adjusting so nicely at Remington. The workers are happy and very attentive. The other residents are friendly. I enjoy going there. My mom’s ‘apartment’ is near the dining room. The food is great- try the BLT! The activities are allot of fun. Happy Hour w live music from Beach boys to Violinist. Brenda, Justine, Kadie do a wonderful job. Their dedication shows. It is a well managed AL- Brenda sends out a weekly email updating us families on renovations, new menus, outings. Every department contributes to the newsletter style email. My mom’s personality is coming back as she lived alone but had companions at home. She said that me, my brother and husband Tom made a great decision w Remington!
