“Bath manner they have the best memory Care unit staff and facility in the area. After seeing how happy my mother is at Bath Manor I wish I had brought my mother to this facility to begin with after countless other facilities that lack the quality and care that bath Manor provides. I would highly recommend anyone bringing their loved one for long-term or short-term care to Bath Manor”
