My mother suffered from severe dementia. She just recently passed away. She lived her last days at Friendship Village’s Woodside residential care facility. On behalf of my Dad and our whole family, let me say that words cannot express how thankful we are for the competent and loving staff at Woodside.<br>Many healthcare professionals are kind and compassionate, which is good. But the staff at Woodside are more than kind and compassionate. They are loving. They love their patients. They treat them like their own loved ones. We will be forever thankful for Woodside. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

A wonderful place to live. Fine food. Easy going new friendships. Bordom is virtually impossible. The staff is friendly and competent. Lived here 12 years and we should have come sooner.
