I am so grateful for the almost 4 years that my dad was able to live at the Hidenwood. Dad passed away peacefully almost 2 weeks ago and the staff at the Hidenwood continued to deliver compassion and care to us as we cleaned out dad's room. Although everyone we encountered over the years has been exceptional, a special shout out goes to Joyce and to DeDee. Joyce worked closely with dad and he thought the world of her. She called him, "her little buddy" even though dad stood 6'4". DeDee is often at the reception desk and can be seen both interacting with the residents and assisting visitors alike. No one could fully compensate these ladies for the love they show and the service they provide everyone they come in contact with. I would give 6 stars, but Google only lets me give 5.

Response from the owner

It was our privilege to play a small part in your dad's life as well as your family's. We appreciate this incredibly sincere note to our team. We can't thank you enough for entrusting our team with the care of your dad. We will always consider you all part of our Hidenwood family!
