My father needed skilled nursing as a terminal illness was taking his life. Everyone on the Canterbury nursing staff was wonderful to him and became his second family. They cared for him so well and were sensitive to his needs as his health declined. Even in his last days, they kept him comfortable and never gave up on him. The staff were very compassionate and caring as the cancer took my father. The Canterbury was a safe, caring home for my father as he lived out the last months of his life. I constantly thanked the staff for all the dedication and details that went into the large amount of care my father needed. I am so glad the Canterbury was available to my father because it would not have been possible to arrange the intense, 24 hour nursing my father required in his home.

Thank you for taking the time to leave these kind comments, Thomas. It is our honor and privilege to have met your father and spent these past months with him. We were all extremely fond of him, enjoyed his good nature and especially his enthusiasm for cars! We miss him but are so grateful to hear that our efforts to create a safe, compassionate and comfortable home for him were felt by all of you. Thank you for sharing him with us. Sincerely, The Canterbury team.
