I would like to comment on the excellent care we received from (Care Initiatives Hospice - Greenfield) Melissa, Becky and Lori. Becky listened to people and took her time and did not rush even though she had many miles to go before calling it a day. I have nothing but praise for the people who do this work. Keep up the good work and God's blessings upon you.

Thank you for supporting our mother’s 100th birthday party “at her home”. Everything went smoothly all afternoon – which was made possible by Jodi. I cannot say enough positives about her for this day – but also for her weekly program.

Creston Specialty Care

During my time with COVID, I received excellent care. While I spent 14 days alone in isolation, the girls did everything they could to ensure I didn't feel alone. They fed me when I couldn't feed myself. I am very thankful for the care I received and continue to receive.

Thank you for such a special day with the Christmas dinner and party. Thank you does not seem to cover all the blessings you brought to the residents and visitors. As I looked around, there were smiles, laughter, friends greeting friends and a joyous atmosphere that filled the home. The dinner was outstanding.

Panora Specialty Care

The building was kept very clean, safe and welcoming. The food was better than I had expected. The staff I cannot say enough nice things about. Both nurses and CNAs were excellent caretakers.

When a person can no longer stay in their home safely, a family member can no longer take care of them safely, then I would highly recommend Stratford Specialty Care. They get good care, residents are treated like family, and so many fun activities and parties! Thank you staff for all you do for our loved ones!!
