I would like to personally thank the staff and volunteers at St. Augustine Health Campus for making my brother feel so supported and respected during his 3-year stay at your facility. ALS is a cruel disease and as my brother declined in his ability to do everyday tasks the folks at St. Augustine were there to help and coordinate activities relative to his limited mobility! He was actively engaged in encouraging discussions and shown love and empathy throughout his entire journey. After his passing I was so impressed that residents and personnel were in attendance at his funeral and said wonderful things about him. It is apparent that the personnel at St. Augustine Health Campus are committed special people that have a compassion and love of their work,…job well done!!

My father has been living at St. Augustine Towers Assisted Living for almost nine years. I don't live in town and have found this place to be such a blessing. My Dad has been so happy here. The care is wonderful because the staff are friendly, pleasant and want to be there. This reflects on the residents. The facility is always clean and never lacks a friendly, smiling face either from an employee or a resident. I can't say enough good things about this place. Truly blessed and grateful to have found it.
