“The personal care and attention he's received has been a big relief for me and my relatives and Everest has well earned our trust.”
“He absolutely loved his room there and looked forward to mealtime. He wasn't a particularly social person, but he was welcomed with politeness by the other residents and was always treated with kindness and respect by each of the staff.”
