Working with Tamara was a pleasure. Placing my uncle in memory care was a hard decision but Tamara made it easier for me and my family.

Tamara Brade and the staff of the Veranda made moving in my mother in law a very smooth experience. Tamara was instrumental in facilitating a good experience with the financial aspect, including introductions with Verandas in house financial staff, applying for Medicaid. Tamara and the rest of the excellent staff were knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and extremely pleasant to workwith. The process was as easy as good be. We had a great result.
