I must commend the therapy staff. Over the years I have spent many hours in many different therapy departments. I would rate the caring staff at NorthCrest at the top of the list.

From the moment I talked with Admissions about the possibility of (having Mom) come to Ravenwod, to the present, we have been welcomed like family. The staff made the paperwork painless; the nursing staff took over Mom's health care; and the social worker has aided me every step of the way. Thank you all for making Ravenwood home!

The staff are very knowledgeable and respect my body and privacy. They are very helpful when needed. Staff will go out of their way to make sure your needs are met. Would recommend this facility to anybody.

My words seem too small to express my gratitude for all your loving care for my mother this past year. Knowing mom was being cared for so well in our absence was a true blessing. Our whole family enjoyed the many kindnesses you afforded us especially at the holiday meals and events.

One of the first things Mom asked after she came back was, "Am at the Care Center?" I told her she was home and she nodded. She loved the staff and residents. Thank you to absolutely everyone who helped Mom with care and compassion in her last days. Everything was greatly appreciated!

On behalf of all of our family, I want to thank you and all the staff for the excellent care for XXXXX during his time with you. Everyone was always so kind, loving, helpful and compassionate. We know he was well cared for. I appreciate that I was called with reports of even the littlest things concerning his care and health. We trusted all of you to give him your best.

Mom was there the day the Manly nursing home opened to start caring for people. The care and compassion that she received her last couple weeks was amazing - not only for her but our family. We are so grateful our mother was surrounded by such a dedicated staff.
