Testimonials
Over the weekend it became very apparent what an effect your facility and staff has had on our family and friends. Every single person that visited mother during her stay all commented on how lucky mother was to have had her final time with such gracious and caring people. The ability to have photos and meaningful effects in her room made mums initial move much more comfortable and stressless. In the final weeks the staff in my opinion went above and beyond. Covid has brought in some interesting challenges to palliative care which I appreciate brought significant stress your staff. To all of them, I would like to thank them for there professionalism and humanity that they showed. Brent 21.02.2022 |
