After six years in a place that lacked compassion, moving my mom to Blessed Elder Care was the best decision. The owner, Maggie and the nurses are attentive, caring and treat us like family with proactive updates; the home is immaculate and welcoming, safe and truly home-like. The scratch-cooked meals are delicious, residents are friendly, my mom thrived and I highly recommend this award-winning, above-and-beyond facility.
