Testimonials
| There are many reasons why people enjoy living at Enliven’s Reevedon Home. We asked some of the residents that live there what they like the most about their home. "When I walked through the front door it just felt like home. I think it’s the staff and the warmth of the place – it just clicked for me, and the staff are terrific here.” – Frank, resident. “Being around children - having them visit after school and helping them learn to read. The best thing you can teach a child is to read.” – Christine, resident. “I like living here and I like the people. The staff are very kind to me.” - Barbara, resident. |
