Exceptional staff, exceptional facility. Residents are all very nice, warm and welcoming, a wonderful place to retire and thrive.
Most of the aides are good, the food isn't that good, I pick what I want to eat,I have seen good aides and nurses leave, the place has gone down hill, the best nurses are Kelly, Raquel, Coleen, and Mary P,
Both my husband Kent and I are very happy we chose Crestwood Manor. We love our apartment and are freed of maintenance responsibilities. The staff is friendly and responsive and we look forward to many happy years here.
We have been residents of Crestwood Manor for two and a half years. We are very comfortable in our apartment and greatly enjoy the many activities provided. We have made many meaningful friendships here and look forward to dining and socializing with them. Recently I suffered a debilitating injury while away from home. The support I have received from staff and friends, upon returning, has been instrumental in making quick progress back to full mobility. We love living here at Crestwood Manor.
When my parents moved into Crestwood Manor almost 2 years ago they found a wonderful welcoming environment. There are so many different activities that they can enjoy and they have made many new friends. The residents and staff are friendly , the facility is clean and their apartment is just right for their needs. As a family member, I am delighted to see my parents so happy!
