Key Review Excerpts

“The 'Assisted' Living staff put her flat in bed with a diaper for 5 days; she developed a UTI and pneumonia.”
“Still Hopes is by far the best of the best, nothing else even comes close to what Still Hopes is. The staff genuinely care, the organization taka pride in being the best of the best.”
