    Visited a relative here and shes treated very good. Only complaints are the people don't get to visit any parks nearby and the garden on the roof is completely closed meaning you have to stay indoors but it's been a few months so it may of changed. Food is very good and tastes amazing! Staff are very nice and helpful as well. My relative in here has stated she often gets depressed as she can't go outside or go anywhere so she often needs to watch TV or knit to distract herself so I would like if they started going out more or having more programs to help. Especially since she is younger than other tenants there so she likely feels lonely.

    I was there to save the day at a East Coast Carolling Co event - a Christmas party for the residents, and some of their grandkids from the local high school. It was awesome.

    Been enjoying the nursing staff and support staff on 5 central. They make it feel like Hine and very interactive with the residents. So far very happy with the care we are getting.
