My grandma passed this recent year and was residing at The Ridge. They took such great care of her, the space was clean and welcoming, and better yet the people were so kind, caring, and attentive. My family still to this day talks about how happy we are that we chose The Ridge for my sweet grandma and how happy she was there.<br><br>I want to give a special thanks to Mary Heideman in Activities: Mary always has a glowing smile on her face and a welcoming attitude. What was especially notable is despite always running around the place because she is so busy keeping the residents happy and entertained, she never failed to say hello to my family and I and she would always stop in her tracks to chat with my grandma which made her day.<br><br>It’s people like Mary and so many others at The Ridge who made my grandma so happy in her last years and ensured she was cared for mentally, physically, emotionally, and socially!

Well, where to start. everyone here has been so amazing, and a few staff stand out to me as i help my little family move in and make that transition positive. Mary in activities is outstanding. Vae, so personable and friendly. Amanda in the kitchen. Emma, Janelle at the front desk. Those few stand out so much in making this such a wonderful transition. Thank you to such a wonderful team, i'm sure we will get to know and appreciate more of the amazing staff.
