“I found out about Vestal Park because my cousin has been here for a year or so. I think it's so nice I was able to get a friend in there for rehab , probably assisted living. He is very happy about that. There's always plenty of friendly, happy staff, very clean, the meals are very nice and it is just a nice place to be. I'm glad both of them are there.”
