After calling my mother's room several times,I called the nurses station and the young man that answered the phone said well that's not my patient but went to check anyway! My mother was not coherent and couldn't speak and he acted like it was fine. She was not! I rushed over and Hopsice was brought in,I'm not a nurse and o could tell she didn't have long! I demanded she get moved into Rose Arbor that night,Centrica made that happen. I couldn't stand the thought of my mom taking her last breath in such a horrible place!

My mom now is so afraid of falling. She is a stroke survivor. She grabs onto everything even with two of us transferring her. She has done so much damage to my body over the last few years. It is my mother and I will always take care of her. Thank you for Fresh Perspectives. Very professional and a wonderful staff. The only good thing I have to say about Senior Services is that I found an incredible friend in their staff.

It's freezing out today so the beach is a no-go right now, but it's wonderful to have the option available. They've got another beach campfire event, drive in movie, and drive in concert scheduled at the park this month as well. We appreciate their efforts to provide social but socially distanced events, although we hope they'll do a better job hiring local and/or talented bands for future summer concert series.

These things can happen, but it might help to encourage staff to mention this to folks who order food so expectations are clear. We also noticed there's no system to help the runner find the outdoor table where the food should go. Poor guy was not set up for success and had to walk all over the place to get the food to the right people. A system that pairs a table with a number might resolve this really easily. Food was tasty. Beers were great and we really got a laugh from the creative names y'all use. Staff we met were thoughtful and had great energy. I'd definitely recommend, but on a busy night you may have a bit of a wait for food.
