Visited a resident friend at the Willows. Staff was helpful in locating her room. All staff was helpful and attentive.

Moved our dad in 3 weeks ago. Everyone seems to be very attentive to the many needs of the elderly. Brendan Richardson has been exceptional. He seems to be the evening/weekend guy when staff is low yet has a great attitude and very caring way with all the residents. He does the job of two people! I only hope management realizes this and rewards him accordingly.
