Key Review Excerpts
“My mother was there for a month following a few days in the hospital. She loved it ! Having been a nurse for 45 years she is very aware of what is good care or not. She loved the meals, the nurses and all of the staff there were extremely helpful with the logistics of her stay and discharge.”
“My mother was a resident at Crouse Community Center for three years before her recent passing, and I have nothing but positive things to say about her experience there. The facility is bright and welcoming, and without exception, the staff was kind, patient, and attentive.”
“My mother was a resident for 3 years and I visited 2 to 3 times a week and never had an issue..she was very alert, somewhat demanding, and we'll aware of her rights! They were amazing treated her with respect, as an adult and used humor and encouragement to deal with her demands.”
