My mom thought about it, but no. Read the contract. Fees, fees, more fees...

I can’t be more grateful for the people who made this hard decision easier. The compassion and kindness gave us such peace. They asked the hard questions necessary we hadn’t even thought of. This brought us the knowledge of their wisdom and compassion. Thank you for this place and peace of mind.

I helped my 90 year old grandparents tour here last week, just to check it out. Jennifer Jolly was our tour guide and used a hard-sell tactic after I made it clear there would be no decision made that day. She also asked me if my grandmother had dementia and was sundowning right in front of her (she was not). It was extremely inappropriate. It seemed that she thought neither my grandparents nor I had any autonomy over the situation. It’s safe to say I’m disappointed, and left disturbed by her behavior, as well as the follow-up calls to my father.
