As soon as I was admitted to the facility - I received what I consider constant, quality and professional attention to my health issue. I felt confidant that my health issue would be corrected. And it was! Also, the entire support team from housekeepers to the food and nutrition staff were excellent. Even though the diet I was on was for diabetics - the taste, quantities and variety of the food was great! Hats off to Felicia and her crew.
