Key Review Excerpts
“I was very pleased with the end if life care that my Mother received at Sara Todd. The staff was amazing, the building was clean from top to bottom.”
“My mom was at Sarah Todd for over a year. Not a good experience for her or family. Not enough help and room mate would ring bell for my mom and the staff would scream at her not to do that. My mom fell out of bed cause they did not put her bed down.”
“They took great care of my grandmother, right up to the end. I am eternally grateful to their staff for their compassion and care. They also sent flowers to her funeral.”
