“The owners, Tim and Mike, are hands-on. They know every resident and keep track of their needs. They are in constant communication with me. I have Tim's cell phone and can reach out at any time.”
“They knew all his quirks and kept him safe and happy. They kept us in the loop on everything and were able to handle his care even when things got bad.”
“The Sandyside staff takes loving care of my mom - styling her hair and painting her nails all the time. For the residents who are able to participate, they do crafts and fun activities.”
