    "Fantastic caring staff and home like atmosphere. Makes living there more like an apartment with friends than a sterile, hospital. I never mind going to see my mother there because it doesn't feel like a chore and depressing - It's nice. Surrounded by wonderful hills, trees and fields in Ozark Missouri. This would be a wonderful place to take one of your elderly loved ones. The grounds are constantly being updated and made interesting with lots of gardens and flower paths."

    "Our friend recently needed to move here. While we were there, the nurse came in and brought her evening pills. We asked if we would be able to take her on a walk, and they showed concern that she would miss dinner. Our friend stated that even if this wasn't home, it was a peaceful place to be."
