Staff is attentive and very caring. They are lead by the Director who engages with the residents. My heart was overwhelmed with the kindness given to our Mom. The Director shared a happy birthday song and dance in the lobby on her birthday...it brought the biggest smile to her face. It's comforting to witness the caring staff. Kudos to all the staff!!!
