I work in senior care and have been to ALL of the facilities between Colorado Springs and Pueblo and Mackenzie Place is hands down the nicest. There is never an unpleasant smell and the residents are so social and kind. One of the biggest kudos goes to Makenzie Places retention of staff. I’ve been in and out of the building regularly for 8 years and in that time, they have only had one new GM/ED - and I see the same housekeeping staff year after year as well. If you’re taking care of your people from the top down, you’re going to have a good, reliable team!
