Hear From Our Residents
Meet Carl
Carl S. moved here to receive assistance with the care of his wife. He appreciated living close to her when she transitioned to long-term care on the same campus.
“We both initially moved to independent living, but later my wife moved to the long-term care area. She was treated well there and received excellent care. The staff were very supportive and explained her care to me and what to expect as the disease progressed — this was helpful for me,” he said.
