Sophie and I instantly feel welcomed here as well. The residents (most importantly) are clearly loved, and their individual needs are gently and patiently tended to. Employees work together and help on…”

“Too early to say, but comparing previous facility Maluhia is better. Nurses are more friendly and quickly responds when we ask for help. I love that fct there is TV in the room, DVD/CD player connected. I brought in CD music to play while I am visit patient. I was impressed to see another patient in hallway and they provided TV in the hallway for her.”
