My Family and I are incredibly grateful for the service, attention and compassion that we were shown when coming to this facility. Jennifer Rapp is absolutely AMAZING and has helped my grandfather in so many ways. She went above and beyond for complete strangers and now my grandfather has now gotten back his quality of life. Thank you so much!!!!!

I can't say enough about Jennifer Rapp! She went above and beyond for my mother-in-law and father-in-law. They were in a terrible facility where my MIL was injured and Jennifer showed such compassion in her efforts to help us relocate my in-laws to this wonderful facility where they would be happy , safe and healthy. My father-in-law says 'you picked the perfect place for us" and thanks to Jennifer this is now his home. Sadly my MIL passed away but not before seeing how great a home they were now in and how caring Jennifer is. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Jennifer, I haven't come across many people like you in this profession and you are a blessing!

The process of moving a parent into assisted living is daunting at best, and a mind numbing process! Camellia at Deerwood happens to be the first community we toured and little did I know that Jennifer Rapp would become the angel on my shoulder. She has helped me through every step the way and I couldn't have done it without her. Camellia, Jennifer and their new Executive Director, Nicole, are the 'cream of the crop' and today my mother became a resident. I very much look forward to working with the rest of the staff too. Thank you Jennifer..you are the best!
