★★★★★Glen Day · 2025-04-25 · via Google“Lighthouse took care of my mother for many years. The staff were friendly, helpful, and professional. I live out-of-state and, on the occasions when I would drop by unannounced, I could see that she was well taken care of. Adora (social worker) and David (administrator) often went the extra mile for her. RIP mom.”
