So so so great!! Both of my parents were able to move in after my mother broke her hip. They made it their priority to get them together as soon as possible after my mother left another rehab facility. My parents have been married for over 72 years. They don't know how to live apart. WHAT A BLESSING!!!

This is a great place for seniors to live when the house is just too much for them. There are appartments on one end and rooms for total nursing care on the other end. The staff is super nice and helpful.

Big windows to have a Covid-19 conversation through. Just need to remember your cell phone or you will be yelling a lot.
