i lost my nanny today. they gave her a beautiful honour walk and lite candles in her passing around the whole building. It’s a beautiful experience being able to sit with your loved one a little longer after they washed her up and she looked so peaceful. even in the last days where she was agitated and not her self they still treated her great and took care of her and checked every 10 minutes if she was comfortable. they even called the funeral home for us and gave us finger prints. i am thankful for them taking care of my nanny and giving her a good end of life experience. we were never out the loop. they even helped celebrate her last birthday with us with cake and a happy birthday song. she cried and loved it. she was happy.

Most caring and professional staff at this facility. End of life is a traumatic experience. There are no words to describe the facility, the staff, and the volunteers that make this place the most comforting place to be to watch a loved one take their final journey. To say this place is extraordinary is such an understatement.
