I've never seen such unprofessional behavior in a health care facility before. The administration was behaving terribly with one of the staff member, yelling, interrupting, chasing people, etc. I would NEVER put a loved one in this place - EVER.

How delightfully surprised I was to be greeted by my father with ashes on his forehead reminding me( who had forgotten) it was Ash Wednesday.
Just one of the the many examples I've wholeheartedly witnessed of how the Canterbury staff personalizes and Embraces each and every individual resident. Always taking and making that extra effort! If it's acknowledging each vets service as my father being a Marine / or Yankee fan / a tiara for the birthday Queen for the day / even taking the time to find that special game or subject of interest / favorite book / large word search.

I am so happy with how my mother is treated here.the staff takes care of the residents like family. It is one of the few places that i have not seen the staff talking on their cell phones. My Mom likes the food as well. The gentleman in charge is so very knowledgeable and he keeps on top of what is going on. The nurses make sure the patients are getting the meds they are supposed to. .The only thing that my Mom would love to see more of is bingo and games of that nature. Once the weather changes the residents will be back to the road trips.I wish to thank each and every one of you for taking that
