“My father is currently a resident at Salem Center. The staff takes very good care of him. They are kind and considerate. His physical abilty has progressed because of the physical therapy and personal care he is receiving. The staff is encouraging and respectful of him. I am grateful that they have made both my father and my adjustment to a difficult situation easier than expected.”
