I am writing to formally share my deep gratitude for the care my father, Richard Carlson, received during his final moments. Specifically, I want to recognize Heidi for her extraordinary service and compassion. During a very difficult time, Heidi went above and beyond her duties. She didn’t just provide medical support; she sat with him, fed him, and cared for him with a level of dignity and tenderness that brought our family immense peace. Knowing he was in such kind hands meant the world to us. Heidi is a credit to your team and an example of what true excellence in caregiving looks like. Please ensure this commendation is added to her personnel file and shared with her supervisors. Thank you HEIDI

I am a resident of the Watkins House for 17 months now and the owners Catalina (Cat) Hemp and Jason Hemp, they are like family to me. I used to work in the healthcare field for years, so I have the back ground to know what is real caring. They are here to answer and needs that I have regarding my living here. I am involved in all aspects of my living here.. They treat all of us residents with dignity and respect. Thank you Cat and Jason for your wonderful assisted living facility here in Central Minnesota.
