"My mother was a resident at Elm Street for the last few months of her life. She had lived with me for a couple of years but at age 94 she needed more care than I could provide. My brother and I brought her over to tour Elm Street and she moved in shortly thereafter. She was able to bring her own furniture, some of which my father had built, and enjoy her own room and bath. When I visited the home was usually filled with the aromas of the wonderful home-cooked food they served. It was really nice for my mother to be able to sit at the dining room table with the other residents and reminisce about periods of their lives they all shared.
Being limited to only six residents meant the staff attention was wonderful. Each staff member was very caring and willing to help in any way possible. Jill Wallace and the staff became such advocates for my mother’s care and shared their knowledge about what to expect as she became more feeble and confused. Their support for her and for me was so important. My mother developed pneumonia and had to be hospitalized but even then Jill and her manager at the time visited frequently – even bringing me soup as I sat with her. I cannot recommend this facility high enough and hope they have an opening for me when I need it!"
